Qt5 Remote Object as interprocess communication between a Windows service and a normal process

Question

I need to have a bidirectional communication channel between a Windows service and a normal process. I have tried with Qt5 Remote Object (source is on service side, replica is on the process side), but I cannot connect. Is there a way to use Qt5 RO ? What other options are available ?

I have found that a service and a normal process can communicate using Qt5 Remote Objects, but only when the source is a normal process and the replica is daemon. The other way around does not work.

hope this helps

Do you know if this limitation still exists in more recent versions of Qt ? Tx. – jageay Jan 06 '23 at 10:55
