Help: Can I Use a Windows DLL in Web Service?

Ben

I need to use a Windows Dll in a C# Web Service, but the Web Service can't
locate the Dll at runtime. I tried to run debugger, which virtually hangs the
Virtual Studio 2005. Can I ask for some guru help here?

Thanks a lot!

Specify the full path in the DllImport.

Thanks, Willy. I was trying your method but got runtime error, and I still
can't launch the Visual Studio debugger which makes debugging also
impossible. Any idea how to fix that?

What runtime error? how did you declare your DllImport signature, and are
you sure you (the webservice's identity) have read access to the load
library.
And what exactly do you mean with can't launch debugger.

I'm working on an integration project, trying to use a Windows Dll inside a
C# Web Service. The Windows Dll works fine in my test Windows app. I used it
in the Visual Studio 2005 Web Service project, and it compiles fine, but I
can't start the Visual Studio debugger for runtime testing/debugging---the
error message saying I need to reinstall Visual Studio. Can someone help me
out?

Hi everyone, I need to make a service that monitors a directory for changes in the files contained within it. I have two questions: 1. I'm going to be using a FileSystemWatcher object to do the monitoring - but do I need to somehow involve another thread to allow the service to do other stuff as well, or is another thread created automatically when the FileSystemMonitor object is created?

I'm really starting to hate writing services -- or trying to, anyway. Why do I need to rename my project to the service name? Why do I need to set the "ServiceName" property to my service name? Why do I need to set a property within my code to the service name? Are all these required or am I just doing this for consistency purposes?
