I have an out of browser silverlight application and a console application(This can be any other .NET application). I want to establish the communication between these two applications. Basically, I want to send a message from console app to out of browser app. and vice versa. Is this possible in SL 4 ? Does SL 5 has any new features to support this ?
1
Could a local WCF(HTTP, TCP, MSMQ, Named pipe) service hosted in the console app work?
(connect/poll)
2
Since SL4/5 supports interop you could use named pipes
