What I want to do is call a function in my main form/class from the
server (which the another program/client calls). The main form does
not really create a server object so I can't pass the frmForm class
into the constructor of MyServer (the client side would have no idea
what to pass into that anyways). What other way to do this is there?
I guess there is static functions, but I can't make everything in
those functions static.
namespace Mark
{
public class frmForm : System.Windows.Forms.Form
{
private void frmForm_Load(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
HttpChannel channel = new HttpChannel(8001); //Create a new
channel
ChannelServices.RegisterChannel (channel); //Register channel
RemotingConfiguration.RegisterWellKnownServiceType(typeof (MyServer),"MyServer",WellKnownObjectMode.Singleton);
}
public void Function1()
{
//do some non-static stuff here
}
}
public class MyServer: MarshalByRefObject
{
public void CalledByClient()
{
//want to call frmForm.Function1 here
}
}
}

Well MyServer is a singleton how about getting the form to achieve the same
effect by manually marshallingobject into the remoting infrastructure.
instead of using RegisterWellKnownServicetype, create an instance of
MyServer pass itself into the ctor and then call
RemotingServices.Marshal passing the instance.
Its proably a good idea in this case to override InitializeLifetimeServices
in MyServer and return null. This will disable the lease based distributed
garbage collection of remoting which in this case is probably a good idea.

So would I do something like?
MyServer svr = new MyServer();
svr.PassFormOver(this);
ObjRef objrefWellKnown = RemotingServices.Marshal(svr, ???????);
What do I put for the other arguments?
I would of course put something like
public class MyServer: MarshalByRefObject
{
static public Mark.frmForm frmMyForm;
public void PassFormOver(Mark.frmForm frm)
{
frmMyForm = frm;
}
public void CalledByClient()
{
//want to call frmForm.Function1 here
}
}
}
