self hosting asp.net mvc

Question

Is it possible to self host asp.net mvc inside another application ie. console, windows forms, service etc etc.

I\'d like to build an app that offers a web interface

Answer 1

Please have a look at http://cassinidev.codeplex.com/ It has many advantages for example

• No need IIS 7 on client machine
• Support MVC (I have tested myself)
• Work well with Windows Form and Web Browser Control for packaging as Windows App
• Cross Win OS platform ( Windows XP, Vista, 7) I have test XP with .NET 4 installed

Hope this helps.
