Hello all,

I need suggestions and possibly solutions to the problem stated below:

I have an application written purely in .NET ( Windows Form
Application) and another application that is supposed to be written in
MFC(Visual C++) or Win32 GUI Application. The problem is to communicate
data between the two applications.

for example,

If i click a button in .NET GUI application, the data(some text) shuld
be sent to the VC++ GUI application.

Both the .NET and VC++ application will run on the same PC. One option
that seems applicable is to use sockets for data communication between
the two applications. But since both application will run on the same
PC, I thought if there were some other faster options available. Like
interprocess communication etc.

Need ur thought on this.

Thanks
Cheers...

The easiest way I can think of is to create a COM+ component for your VC++
application. Your winforms application should have no trouble calling it.

SoxFan44, although ive never used .net remoting, but i think its only
in the clr...and can only be used for .net to .net interprocess comm.
