Hello everybody,

I'm creating a windows service that I want to use to sinchronize several
diferent applications. But I need to pass some messages to it without using
any form of network connection (aka. TCP/IP and NamedPipes). Could anyone
give a suggestion on how to do it?

[]'s,
Harkos

shared memory?

(must be on the local machine)

example:
memory mapped files in C# :
http://www.codeproject.com/dotnet/GlobalCache.asp
http://www.winterdom.com/dev/dotnet/FileMap-2.0.1.zip

You could take this one step further by using .NET remoting, and building a
custom channel, backed by, for example, memory mapped files.
