Hello,

I would like to write a .Net Remoting application in VB, but I'm quite
new at this. I've looked for some examples in Google (with query ".Net
Remoting").

In every example I see, the server is a console application. Is it a
prerequisite ? Is there no other way ? I don't really fancy a ugly
console mode server. I don't even know how to catch the "close" event
in a console !

Does anybody has an idea... a tip... a link... a google query....

Thanks !!

Eric

It can be any other types of app: stand-alone Win form app, a windows
service app, or you can use IIS. as long as it has the configured
communication channel known to your remoting client.

If you're starting from scratch......Skip .Net Remoting and go straight to
WCF.

WCF "includes" .Net Remoting under its family, but its alot more.

Check that post, download the code...and you'll have a decent WCF
application running in minutes.
(A few tsql things as well).

But WCF is the next jump in the chain....

I *strongly* recommend using WCF instead.

@GourouDsecours: WCF in .net framework 3.0 expose many ways to build a
distributing application, you should try for.
