Question

I will be writing a Windows Service which will give a call to a class of my Web Application periodically.
What are the possible ways of achieving it.

Answer 1

Something similar to this,using a timer:

protected override void OnStart(string[] args)
{ 
        var timer = new System.Timers.Timer();
        timer.Elapsed += new ElapsedEventHandler(DoSomething);
        //do something every 30 seconds
        timer.Interval = TimeSpan.FromSeconds(30).TotalMilliseconds; 
        timer.Start();
}

private void DoSomething(object sender, ElapsedEventArgs e)
{
    //Do your timed event here...
}
