Hosting WPF plugin cross-process issue

问题

I use an approach similar to http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/516431/Baktun-Shell-Hosting-WPF-Child-Windows-in-Another to host WPF applications (plugins) in another process via the AddInHost (derived from HwndHost) class.

This works fine so far as long as I don't suspend the child process. If I do so then also the parent process is frozen. The reason for this is that the parent/child processes are sharing the same (synchronous) Input Queue: Good or evil - SetParent() win32 API between different processes

I have already tried to decouple the two processes before I suspend the plugin process with the SetParent Win32 function but even the plugin is then decoupled from the host-application it does not help to get rid of the problem:

public static void Decouple(HwndHost hwndHost)
{
  SetParent(hwndHost.Handle, IntPtr.Zero);
}

Any ideas what I am missing here to separate the two processes so that they don't share the same input queue any longer?

For me the solution was to use AttachThreadInput Win32 API function to detach the plugin HwndHost input queue
