Windows Service function calling from an application.

[jiten]

Hi guys,

I want to call a function of an application (Windowsapplication1.exe)from a windows service context menu (System Tray).


1. Through System.Reflection i try for but i get an error TargetInvocationException is unhandle.


private void RequestProfileData(object serder,System.Eventargs e)
{System.Reflection.Assembly a = System.Reflection.Assembly.Load(@"C:\WinServe\Wind owsApplication1\bin\Debug\WindowsApplication1.exe" );
Type mytype = a.GetType("WindowsApplication1.metadata");
System.Reflection.MethodInfo mymethod = mytype.GetMethod("metadata");
Object obj = Activator.CreateInstance(mytype);
mymethod.Invoke(sobj, null);

}


2. i try through P/Invoke. Get the TargetInvocationException was not handle.


this is inside a class.
[DllImport("CureControlCommLib.dll", EntryPoint = "RequestProfileData")]
static extern bool RequestProfileData();

CureControlApplication.CureControlCommLib.CAPADevi ceComm DeviceCom = new CAPADeviceComm();
DeviceCom.RequestProfileData();



Thanking You a lot Please send a mail to me regarding any information you get.
