.net - how to connect windows service with systray application
- by razor
I have a windows service that do something periodically.
on user account runs systray application (written in C#) that communicate with windows service (thru .net remoting) and shows a status and some option to users.
Everything works well beside that systray app uses 20-30MB of RAM !
it have to work in terminal environment, when 50 users login, only systray apps take 1GB of RAM ! and i don't have to add, that's wrong :)
Is it possible to write .net systray application that will be small ? (1-2MB max?)
or should I write it in c/c++? then, what kind of communication should I use between windows service (written in C#) and systray app ?
