What type of objects can be remoted? I have a mapping application that uses
a third party SDK to build drawing layers base on vector data stored in a
database. I built a class that subclass the third party class and tagged it
with the <Serializable()> _ attribute . I want to build this object on the
server and return the object to the client to used on the client. Can this
be done via Remoting? What the minimum size for an object being returned to
the client? I appreciate the advice and or comments.


Regards,


Frank

Just about any object can be remoted. What are you sending from the server
-> client?

Have you considered web services if it's only data?

Actually I'm using web service right now. I have a mapping solution which
queries the database for vector data, this can be several thousand rows of
data for each layer to be drawn on a map viewer, and can have any where from
1 to 30 layers to render. So I'm thinking if I can build the "Layer Object"
on the server and then remote it to the client may speed up the process.
Your thoughts?



Thanks.
