Call method in already running .NET assembly from different app

Question

I don\'t know if you can do this, but basicly I need to be able to call a method in already running .NET process from a different assembly that don\'t share the same process.

Answer 1

The easiest way is to use ServiceHost to expose a WCF service. You can not directed access an object from a process from another process. The only option is to send a message to the other process interpret the message and execute a action.

Here you can find a quick example: http://blogs.microsoft.co.il/blogs/davids/archive/2009/05/31/a-hands-on-lab-for-wcf-moc-6461.aspx

Hope this helps.
