Hi,

I have a windows service running different threads (and progress events)
which are taking some time.
What is the best way for a client apllication to communicate with the
service for asking its state (eg. progress of the tasks, taskcount, cancel
tasks) ?

Is there an easy way to do this? Sockets? Named pipes? And is there an
example?

Thank you

Stefan
