OK, after lots of faffing I have finally gotten remoting working - basically
I have a windows service (the "server") and a forms app (the "client").
The forms app can call methods in the server, and I can get events fired on
the server to be picked up and acted on in the client app, so all is well. I
can even get two client apps on different machines talking to the same
server instance and the events pop up on both.
This is all good until the "first" client app instance dies unexpectedly
(i.e. for testing, I am just killing it in task manager). The events never
reach the other instance, as the server seems to be sending out the events
synchronously to any connected clients. (I have got some code to unregister
the client/event in the form close event, so if you quit "gracefully " this
problem doesn't occur).
Is there any way of either a) removing a crashed client from the servers
internal list? (I do get an exception in the server when my event is fired,
basically saying the target machine actively refused connection - but what
to do with that info!) or b) can I send out my events from the server in
some async/simultaneous way so it doesn't matter if a client instance has
died or not.
I'd prefer option a as it seems neater, but hey-ho.
TIA

James,
When you get the reference to the client, you have an object that
derives from MarshalByRefObj ect. With that, you can call GetLifeTimeServ ice
which will return an object. This object can be cast to an ILease instance
which you would then query to get the state of the connection back to the
client. If the state indicates that it is not connected (or an exception is
thrown), then you can try and unsubscribe through the ILease interface, and
proceed from there.

Introduction:

I am using remoting to expose the control channels of my streaming server, I
need to be able to detect when a certain client was terminated, this should
be done ONLY from the server side.
My server expose the IServer interface what contain a single CreateSession
method, calling this method returns ( through remoting ) a session interface

Hi,
I have a problem that I have been working with for a while.
I need to be able from server side (asp.net) to detect that the file i'm
streaming down to the client is saved completely/succsessfully on the
client's computer before updating some metadata on the server (file
downloaded date for instance)
However,
All examples i have tried, and all examples I have found that other people
says works - doesn't work for me :-(

Hi,
We have a windows service passing objects to a client application by
remoting.
The windows service is started and running successfully.
* When the client app is running on the same machine as the windows service
(W2K3) every method gets executed successfully.
* When the client app is running on a different machine (XP SP2), some
methods from the remote object the client calls make client hang. Other

A client application connects to a TCP-remoted object from a service on
localhost for method invocations and events. It works as advertised. But...
if the network cable (LAN) gets disconnected, the event subscriptions to the
localhost server are lost because "The connection was forcibly closed...". If
the remoting proxy had also gone away, the client would detect it and begin
trying to re-establish the connection. But it doesn't; the...

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
