exchange information between two .net applciations running under windows

[KemperR]

Dear All,

I need some very basic help on the following situation:

I have two applications (we may assume bot are .net based) which must
exchange information very quickly.
In an ideal case I imagine one application fires an event and the other
one may handle it.
The same might happen in the other direction.
We can assume that both applications run on the same machine, but are
started completely independent.

What is the standard way to achive this under windows ?
What can .net do for me ?

Any hint is welcome

Thanks
Rolf

Hello (e-mail address removed),

In general: Remoting, Sockets, Pipes for the small apps and EnterpriseServices,
MessageQueue, WebServices for the middle scale apps

I have two applications (we may assume bot are .net based) which must
exchange information very quickly.
In an ideal case I imagine one application fires an event and the
other
one may handle it.
The same might happen in the other direction.
We can assume that both applications run on the same machine, but are
started completely independent.
What is the standard way to achive this under windows ? What can .net
do for me ?

You can use Remoting. Here's an article and sample code:
