Is there any way to get info like progress from another process?
What I’m trying to do is have Program1 download Program2,
Program1 will then tell Program2 to do certain things and Program1 displays the progress.
If it’s too tricky or difficult i could also just close program1 and move the interface to Program2 though, but I’d really prefer not to because it requires a lot of work.
There are lots of ways to do inter-process communication (IPC), including:
and so forth. We would need a lot more details to be able to answer more specifically (eg. is one or other of Program1 and Program2 a GUI or console application). Also knowing why Program2 needs to be a separate program rather than an assembly loaded (ideally into a separate and restricted app domain) into the existing process?
