I am writing an application as a web service. I require that clients be
notified of certain events, and am stuck at this point. I am looking for
pointers. Should I go with the Plumbwork Orange implementation of
WS-Eventing and hope when the eventual MS implementation of it comes out,
there won't be any major changes? Has anyone tried out this implementation?
Should I consider combining web services with some .NET Remoting (w/
delegates) to achieve this ability to notify clients of events? And if I am
going there, should I just forget completely about a web service and consider
a completely .NET Remoting app? (I would like to avoid this as there are some
WS-Security based things I am doing that are rather convenient). If others
have experience with this type of a web service, I would appreciate it if
they could share some of their thoughts on this.
Regards,
Ravi

Hello Ravi,
Plumbwork is available TODAY and works! I dont think MS plans on implementing
WS-Eventing until indigo atleast. You could use .net remoting if you dont
have a need for connecting with clients on different platforms or if you
have a need-for-speed :) Also if you wish the eventing mechanism to be transport
independent, say you wish your notifications to be via mail(smtp), then remoting
is out of the question.
