Hi all. I have a windows service that inserts some messages in a database. Now, I need an interface so a user can see the process. My first option was adding an interface to the service. Is that possible? I've been reading about that and is not very usual. If not, the option would be creating another application that communicates with the service and shows the messages. In that case, how can I do that? Should I use Remoting? I'm not sure about how to get the messages from the service. My service is just a loop that listens to a socket and inserts the received messages in a database. If the service can have an interface, it would be as easy as showing a message in a control after each message processed. Any ideas please?
