I need to write a .NET application that listens to a SMS message , and then react to it.
I assume i need a SMS gateway to interface between my application and the sender of the SMS.
How could i implement this . Would the listening program need to be a web service or something else ?
Please give me your ideas.
Thanks, Chak
One easy way to do it (if it fits your architecture) is to just simply use a mobile phone and have code on it that intercepts the message and the forwards it to your application.
If you want to use .net, you can use a Windows Mobile phone and use the MessageInterceptor class with .NET Compact Framework. Then, when you have your message, use whatever method you want to forward it to your app (sockets, serial ports, web services, …).
