Remoting Problem

[S Chapman]

I have a simple remote server object that raises an event when the list
maintined by it changes. The idea is to enable the remote client to
update the GUI when the server list changes. When the I create the
server object without using remoting (i.e. just use new()) the event
fires and the client updates the UI but when I create the server object
as a remote object (using Activator.GetOb ject()) the event does not
fire at all. I have pasted the code below. I am pulling my hair out
trying to solve this simple problem. Any help will be much appreciated.
Thank you.

Is it possible that your Singleton server object is expiring? Have you
looked into the InitializeLifet imeService() method of
MarshalByRefObj ect?

I just pulled up some code I wrote a few years back that did what
you're trying to accomplish. I used a TcpChannel at port 0 on my client
instead of a TcpClientChanne l. On my server, I had the
InitializeLifet imeService method overridden as follows:

public override object InitializeLifet imeService()
{
return null;
}
