Pass Data Between Windows Service and ASP.NET page

[pitachu]

Is there a way for a Windows Service to talk to an ASP.NET page (via
HTTP to localhost perhaps)? I'm looking to utilize the cache and
multithreading available in ASP.NET, but I'm not nessarily looking into
make a webpage.

Hello (e-mail address removed),

What exactly you are trying to do?

Is there a way for a Windows Service to talk to an ASP.NET page (via
HTTP to localhost perhaps)? I'm looking to utilize the cache and
multithreading available in ASP.NET, but I'm not nessarily looking
into make a webpage.

I would like the service to be a listener and for the ASP.NET page to
do the processing and maintaining state. Is there a way for the windows
service to talk to this page through HTTP as if a browser is connecting?

A WebService (running in the same application) would most likely be the
favorable choice, but if it has to be with a browser-like behavior, try the
System.Net.WebClient.
