Summary:
With the advent of .NET, Microsoft realized the need for a more flexible approach for building distributed applications. .NET Remoting is the technology that allows remote components to interface and integrate. However, in order for this transparent integration, .NET remoting needs to provide some plumbing wherein it can resolve object references and direct method calls to the specific application hosting the required component, on the specific machine. This concept is based on the principle of Interception. In this article, Kaushal Sangahvi discusses the interception mechanism that is used by remoting, to allow for location transparency of objects. |
