Such a task is necessary so that when you start the application, 2 consoles appear, in the first one the data is output, in the second we enter commands to output the data in the first. How to implement it. Desirable example

    You can use WCF. Both examples and books are enough to cope with the task. - slippyk

    It seems that we will have to make two independent applications, communication between them - through, for example, SignalR. The main application hosts signalr, starts the slave application that clings to the main socket. - Pavel Dmitrenko
  • You need to spawn a child process to host additional console windows. If you really need it, here's an example in C ++ . - Lunar Whisper
  • One app or two? - Qwertiy ♦

This is easily implemented by means of RabbitMQ + Masstransit .

1) Create a class that represents the message that applications will exchange.

public class Message { public string Text { get; set; } }

2) Create an application that will send messages. Therefore, first install MassTransit.RabbitMQ

 Install-Package MassTransit.RabbitMQ -Version 3.5.7 
 static void Main(string[] args) { Console.Title = "Publisher"; var bus = Bus.Factory.CreateUsingRabbitMq(x => x.Host(new Uri("rabbitmq://localhost/"), h => { })); bus.Start(); var text = ""; while (text != "выход") { Console.Write("Введите сообщение: "); text = Console.ReadLine(); var message = new Message() { Text = text }; bus.Publish(message); } bus.Stop(); }

3) Create an application that will receive messages. Therefore, we also install MassTransit.RabbitMQ

 Install-Package MassTransit.RabbitMQ -Version 3.5.7 
  static void Main(string[] args) { Console.Title = "Subscriber"; var bus = Bus.Factory.CreateUsingRabbitMq(x => { var host = x.Host(new Uri("rabbitmq://localhost/"), h => { }); x.ReceiveEndpoint(host, "SubscriberQueue", e => e.Handler<Message>(a => { Console.WriteLine(a.Message.Text); return Task.CompletedTask; })); }); bus.Start(); Console.ReadKey(); bus.Stop(); }

    Cons for what, would explain though. The solution does not work or does not allow to implement what the author of the question wants? - sp7
  • @ sp7 I’ve given you a favor, but about the solution, it’s too far somewhere in the jungle, I wanted to use the standard libraries c # - polsok
  • @polsok, if you are satisfied with two different applications, then you can try implementing on NamedPipe - Andrey NOP

    @polsok, thanks for the feedback. I gave this example, only as one of the possible solutions to this problem. It is simple, easy to implement, plus the use of RabbitMQ + Masstransit provides a bunch of different buns. It may not be useful in your particular situation, but knowing about it will be useful. - sp7
