Hi,
What is the simplest way to implement that ?
Send WM_USER message to main window of second application, and catch it in
it.
The simplest way I can imagine. 8=]
A lot of people do it that way including me, so I've not actually learned
the 'proper' way to do it :)
If one application calls the other, make the second an ActiveX .EXE and call
that (This is how Microsoft Office products interact).
I'm led to believe by one of my co-workers that the ActiveX EXE can call
each other in .NET without using COM. In other words - one will not have to
be dependant on the stub of the other - but I haven't looked into it. Please
let me know if you find a modern solution to this problem!
BTW: Will "Remoting" solve your problem?
