Hi

I have a client server application developed using .NEt remoting.
The client makes certain requests to the server and the server replies
back.This part works fine.
But I need another functionality too.
I want my server to send a signal to client periodically ,about some
changing statuses.The client does not know when the status is changing.The
server has to tell the client.
How can I achieve this scenario??
Any ideas/help would be appreciated.

Thanks and Regards

Hi,

In this case the roles are changing. The client will be the server and the
server will be the client. In other words, the client has to define a remote
(MarshalByRefObject) object which will be called back by the server.

Perhaps, some links may help you:

I might also suggest Ingo Rammer's book Advanced .NET Remoting. There are both C# and VB versions of the book. It has pretty
much the same info as the articles on codeproject, but it may do a better job of explaining the whys and wherefores and the
pitfalls.
