Q:

alert wpf application when record inserted in database

I have an MVC and a WPF application, and basically I want to be able to alert the WPF application whenever a record is inserted in an SQL Database through the MVC application.
I am using EF and LINQ to do the CRUD in the MVC application, and the WPF is just a 'listener' retreiving the inserted records from the MVC app and displaying them on a GUI.
So what I would want to be able to do is get a popup alert in the MVC app once a record in the MVC app is inserted into the database.
What is the best way to do that?
Thanks

A:

You could wire something up using StreamInsight depending on what version of SQL you have but id just get the WPF app to poll the db for changes
