Dear all,

I have build a remote object host in a windows service. Everything work fine
when the client call the remote object.
Now I try to make the client part more configurable in the sense that I
would like to not hard coded the URl pass to the Activator.GetObject

For that I have added a client entry in my Client application config file as
follow :
<client>
<wellknown
type="Maillefer.Remote.Data.Event,EventStorage"
url="tcp://localhost:8090/Event"
/>
</client>

Firs t of all is it the correct way to set it here as show ?
Second how to retrive the url part ?

thanks for help
regards
serge

// load configuration from App.config
RemotingConfiguration.Configure(AppDomain.CurrentD omain.SetupInformation.ConfigurationFile,
false);

// get an instance
private static object GetService(string fullName)
{
// get all the configured types
WellKnownClientTypeEntry[] wellKnownClientTypeEntries =
RemotingConfiguration.GetRegisteredWellKnownClient Types();

foreach (WellKnownClientTypeEntry welknownClientTypeEntry in
wellKnownClientTypeEntries)
{
if (welknownClientTypeEntry.ObjectType.FullName == fullName)
{
return Activator.GetObject(welknownClientTypeEntry.Object Type,
welknownClientTypeEntry.ObjectUrl);
}
}
}
}

Thnaks for your sample tim...I appreciate..

But one more question, why are you also specifing the WellKnown mode in your
client configuation ?

I have undertsood that this mode is specify on the server side !! For my
case I have specified singleton on my config file but at my server side.

under client config I did not specify any mode ...
Does it have really to be set in both side ?

An other thing why ar you seeting your end point with the .rem extension ?
this extension is used only if remote object is host under IIS right ?

Well i copy-pasted from an example i had lying around, which hosted the
server in a webserver...
