Surpassing any white papers, specialist documents and other documentationthis book features in-depth coverage of the .NET Remoting Framework. The text is organized into three main parts, and this revised, second edition features 150 pages of entirely new material!

Part one includes a guide to the 1.1 framework and its capabilities in real-world applications. Part two presents .NET remoting internals, and provides real-world code and development strategies. Finally, part three looks at futuristic remoting tools and their present implementation in Visual Studio .NET 2005. You will come to see how remoting procedures will change within the new IDE and revised framework.

Advanced .NET Remoting is the first book on the market that offers in-depth coverage of the .NET Remoting Framework. The book is divided into two sectionsthe first detailing the specifics of the framework and its capabilities in real-world applications. Topics include formatters, channels, lifetime issues, security, configuration files, and the basics of server-activated objects versus client-activated objects. Also covered in detail are Windows Services, IIS, and server-side hosting of remotable components in console applications.

The second part of the book presents an unprecedented view of .NET Remoting internals. Author Ingo Rammer shows how the framework uses message sinks and sink providers, and gives in-depth instruction on how to implement message and channel sinks. These chapters also give insight into the synchronous and asynchronous message processing within the framework.

Going far beyond the information youll gather from Microsoft''s documentation, Rammer explains how .NET Remoting really works, and how it can be extended. The book also includes a chapter on the development process and source code for several real-world message sinks, and shows you how to develop a custom Remoting transport channel from scratch. It concludes with detailed coverage of the ContextBoundObject class and .NET contexts, essential for using the technology within individual, client-only applications.
