I am writing a WPF application. it communicates with a MySQL database. The database contains files as a mediumblob. the communication is working entirely fine and reading and writing the values into the database.



There is an already finished application, that can be called with a file as a parameter.



Is there any way I can pass the file into the other application without saving it? Till now I am saving the file and passing the path to it.

    Do you own the finished application? If it only accepts a file path, and you don't have access to the source, then you are out of luck.

    For googling purposes, the general name for this is IPC (interprocess communication). There are lots of options, some given by @Dai above.
