.vshost ?


I upgrade a Windows Service VS.2003 project to VS.2005

I noticed two new files.

MyProject.vshost.exe
MyProject.vshost.config

What are these?

Do I need copy them to the target to run my Windows service?

Do I need to reinstall the Windows Service with any new utilities to get
it to work?

In short - those files are required to imporve the debugging performance. And
no, you do not have to copy them to the production environment. They are only
required for VS 2005 debugging.

As Arnold suggested, a Google search will get you much more in depth info
around vshost.

Here is the link from MSDN:
