Background Task with Appservice in Winui3

[VishyBala007]

Hi All,

When I was using UWP, I created background service which will start an App service so that I can trigger Notifications from outside my app, for example console app. I will connect to App service from console app and app service will receive the request
and push the toast.

And this background service was running after I install the UWP app.

Now when I move to WinUI3, background task not working it says either in-process or out process.

Can I have a sample in winui3 which can do the above thing even if I don't launch the UI and background service starts after installing the msix

I asked about it on the newest "WASDK Universal BG Task API" (whether it runs inside AppContainer or not) here:

• BackgroundTaskBuilder Implementation #4831 (comment).

@godlytalias as the author may know it better.

there's also

• https://github.com/jonwis/app2app
  repo to look at.
