Remoting at University of Western Ontario

  • Artigo

Presented .NET Remoting to about 300 students at the University of Western Ontario last night. The lucky attendees also got to see a relatively new build on Windows code-name Longhorn, with some new UI changes over the PDC build, including facial recognition capabilities.

The demo code that I wrote in the parking lot included a windows forms calculator that called a remote obj (remoteobj) class. The listener is a server application (windows forms) and also a console application on a different port. We use the console application so we can confirm the calls being received by the remote object...

We used programmatic registration of the well-known type in the server (listener) code:

System.Runtime.Remoting.Channels.Tcp.TcpChannel chan = new System.Runtime.Remoting.Channels.Tcp.TcpChannel(7890);

System.Runtime.Remoting.Channels.ChannelServices.RegisterChannel(chan);

System.Runtime.Remoting.RemotingConfiguration.RegisterWellKnownServiceType(Type.GetType("RemoteObj.Class1,RemoteObj"),"Calc", System.Runtime.Remoting.WellKnownObjectMode.SingleCall);

 

We are listening for TCP requests on port 7890 for a call to the end-point Calc on RemoteObj.Class1

Stay tuned for more fun.
