Remarks

A LocalMessageSender object can send messages to a LocalMessageReceiver object in a different Silverlight-based application running on the same computer. For information about using these classes, see Communication Between Local Silverlight-Based Applications.

Examples

The following code example demonstrates how to use this class. This example is part of a larger example available in How to: Implement Communication Between Local Silverlight-Based Applications.
