Question

In my project I have 2 main files – a C# Windows Service that uses Quartz.NET (using a database rather than RAM based scheduling) for scheduling and actually running the jobs, and an ASP.NET (using C#) backend for adding jobs to the Quartz.NET scheduler. All job ‘types’ are defined in the Windows Service file, so when I try to add a job to a certain category on the ASP.NET backend, it doesn’t pick up the category. This is because all categories are simply their own classes in the file, and they are all int he Windows Service file – so when I reference them in the ASP.NET file it doesn’t know what they are.

How can I link it to the Windows Service file? The code is like this if it’s any help

In the ASP.NET page when adding a job:

JobDetail jobDetail = new JobDetail("myJob", null, typeof(copyJob));

In the Windows Service file:

       public copyJob()
    {
     //
    }

Thanks

If sharing the same class in both the projects is your problem then create class library project and put your shared class in that library. You can then reference your class library project in both windows service and asp.net projects.

For creating class library you can see this article
