Windows Service Custom Methods

[rajkiranpro]

I created a windows service and installed it and it works fine.

now I extend its functionality..

I have created some public methods which returns string value and other
objects of classes in the service.

Now I want to call those methods from a windows forms application.

The ServiceController class allows me to execute custom commands but it does
not allow to return a value.

Any Suggestion???

Thanks in advance

Hi,

the only option you have to communicate between
a windows service and a UI application is to use some
sort of IPC, either WCF, Remoting, Sockets, Shared Memory,
Pipes, etc,...

There are tons of examples out in the web, google is your
best friend....
