Summary:
This article describes a design and implementation (C#) of the Remoting over Internet using the Web Service as a gateway into the Remoting infrastructure. The Web Service Gateway (Custom Remoting Channel) allows to enhance the remoting channel over Internet and its chaining with another heterogeneous channel. Consuming a remote object over Internet is full transparently and it doesn't require any special implementation from the remoting via intranet. The Web Service Gateway enables to create a logical model of the connectivity between the different platforms and languages. Before than we will go to its implementation details, let's start it with usage and configuration issue. For some demonstration purpose I will use a MSMQ Custom Remoting Channel (MSMQChannelLib.dll), which I described in my previously article [1]. I am assuming that you have a knowledge of the .Net Remoting and Web Service. |
