C# 跨进程通信

  IM项目刚开始，由于IM客户端要与VMEETING通信，所以就做了技术调研，跨进程通信，我们使用的是windows  api的findwindow找到窗口，然后用send message通信。（此方案只适用于接收端有window的场景）

 

接收端代码：

using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.ComponentModel;
using System.Data;
using System.Drawing;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Windows.Forms;
using System.Runtime.InteropServices;
using System.IO;
namespace ProcessServer
{
    public partial class FrmProcessServer : Form
    {
        public FrmProcessServer()
        {
            InitializeComponent();
        }
        #region const data
        const int WM_COPYDATA = 0x004A;
        public struct COPYDATASTRUCT
        {
            public IntPtr dwData;
            public int cbData;
            [MarshalAs(UnmanagedType.LPStr)]
            public string lpData;
        }
        #endregion
        [DllImport("user32")]
        public static extern bool ChangeWindowMessageFilter(uint msg, int flags);  
        #region windows api functions
       
        protected override void DefWndProc(ref System.Windows.Forms.Message m)
        {
            switch (m.Msg)
            {
                case WM_COPYDATA:
                    COPYDATASTRUCT mystr = new COPYDATASTRUCT();
                    Type mytype = mystr.GetType();
                    mystr = (COPYDATASTRUCT)m.GetLParam(mytype);
                    File.WriteAllText("D:/processText.txt", "recieved:" + mystr.lpData);
                    lstMessageList.Items.Add(mystr.lpData);
                    break;
                default:
                    base.DefWndProc(ref m);
                    break;
            }
        }
        #endregion
        private void btnListen_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
        }
        private void FrmProcessServer_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            ChangeWindowMessageFilter(WM_COPYDATA, 1);
        }
    }
}

注：vista或win7中引入了uac机制，当以管理员身份运行时，仅仅调用send message这个api给接收端发是收不到的，接收端需要加上这句： ChangeWindowMessageFilter(WM_COPYDATA, 1) //告诉操作系统那条消息不要被过滤掉。
