Comment (by Rui Pedro Fernandes <ruipfernandes@…>):

 Replying to [comment:1 igaztanaga]:
 > The documentation says:
 >
 > Sharing memory between services and user applications is also different.
 To share memory between services and user applications the name of the
 shared memory must start with the global namespace prefix `"Global\\"`.
 This global namespace enables processes on multiple client sessions to
 communicate with a service application. The server component can create
 the shared memory in the global namespace. Then a client session can use
 the "Global\" prefix to open that memory.

 No, that's the problem. I found that same information last friday when I
 was trying to solve the issue and was going to post it here.
 Thanks for your concern.
 Yours,
 Rui
