A question about replacing a process with a another process

[TonyJ]

Hello!

Today we have two processes A and B written in MFC which are communicating
with each other by using serialized socket.
These processes are running as console application and as a GUI application.

Assume I want to replace one of these processes say B with a process written
in C# using window services.

I know window services so you don't have to explain that.

So A should not see any difference.

Is this difficult can somebody give me some hints.

So to handle socket is central point here for process B.

What's a "serialized socket"?

..NET handles sockets just fine. In fact, the .NET Socket class is a
very nice wrapper above the Winsock layer, and there are also classes
that provide even higher-level, simpler access to the network API.

I'm not sure what you mean by "serialized socket", but assuming that's
just a regular Winsock socket or something like one, you should have no
trouble at all.
