With all the attention paid recently to web services, many developers don`t realize that the true successor to DCOM is actually .NET Remoting. And what an improvement it is! Advanced .NET Remoting is the first book that really offers indepth coverage of the .NET Remoting Framework. The first part of the book covers everything a developer needs to know to use the framework and its capabilities in realworld applications, including the basics of serveractivated objects versus clientactivated objects, formatters, channels, lifetime issues, security, configuration files, and more. The serverside hosting of remotable components in console applications, Windows Services, and IIS are also covered in detail.The second part presents .NET Remoting internals in an unprecedented way. Ingo Rammer shows how the framework really uses message sinks and sink providers, and gives indepth advice on why and how to implement message and channel sinks. These chapters will also give detailed insight into the synchronous and asynchronous message processing within the framework. Rammer goes far beyond Microsoft`s documentation in explaining how .NET Remoting really works, and how it can be extendedessential information for advanced developers. Rammer also includes a chapter that presents the development process and source code for several realworld message sinks and shows you how to develop a custom Remoting transport channel from scratch. He concludes with coverage of the ContextBoundObject class and .NET contexts, which allow the use of the techniques of the .NET Remoting Framework within individual, clientonly applications.Author InformationIngo Rammer is cofounder and CEO of Sycom Software, an Austrian software consulting company.
