Create event from external app?

[riro]

I want to create an event from an external app without using the -e parameter on the .exe-file.

Can someone point me in the right direction...?
(VB, C# or some other language)

You can use the built-in ActiveX/COM server EventGhost and method TriggerEvent(PrintableString) or
TriggerEvent(PrintableString, Payload).
See EventGhost.vbs script in folder plugins/MediaMonkey.

Or use TCP sockets and connect to the network receiver plugin. As a bonus you will get obiviously get network functionality at the same time.

To do it take a look at the network sender plugin's code and replicate exactly what it does. (It's pretty simple)

Is it possible to do this with c#

I have looked at the eventghost.vbs script, but i can't figure out how it translates

or xPL

I figure I need to create a reference to a com dll but I can't find the dll file anywhere in the eventghost directories.
