The weird thing
is that *different instances* of my singleton ProcessAgentPoo l class are
actually instantiated!
Evidenced by? You didn't say why you think this...
And over what time interval are you seeing tihs?
Are you sure you aren't getting different ProcessAgent instances from a
single ProcessAgentPoo l?
Basically, by using a singleton, you have exposed yourself to several
threading issues. I wouldn't be at all surprised if a thread race is
causing a failed lookup of a ProcessAgent (in fact, a thread-race here
could crash the whole app, so it is unsafe if you haven't synchronized).
Another possibility is that your app-pool has recycled. This happens. It
also isn't clear on what thread the long-running operation is
happening - if you are using a web-service thread to do the main work, I
might expect starvation (and/or timeouts) to be an issue here as well.

Hi Marc,
thank for having payed attention to my long and boring message and for
your reply! ;-)

You're right.
In each web service WebMethod I use the DefaultTraceLis tener to write
some useful info such:
- ProcessAgentPoo l hash code,
- ProcessAgentPoo l count (i.e. how many active process are held by the
pool),
And over what time interval are you seeing tihs?
"Pollings" are 500ms spaced (just for debuggin purpose).
Are you sure you aren't getting different ProcessAgent instances from a
single ProcessAgentPoo l?
No, different ProcessAgentPoo l. I set a trace-line (writing on the
DefaulTraceList ener) also within the ProcessAgentPoo l .ctor(), and I can
see that sometimes a new pool instance is created.

threading issues.

I know, but I can ensure that everything is synchronized internally. I
could not post here the whole code of the sample application but you can
trust me. ;-)

I'm assuming that you are hosting your app in IIS; IIS has an option
(enabled by default) to restart an app-pool periodically; as I
understand it, this is intended to solve memory growth issues, and a few
other things. After a while, it will literally destroy your app-pool
(i.e. your app-domain), and the next request will get a nice fresh one -
which will mean that you get a new singleton.
You can disable this, but I'm not sure it wold be my first choice. If I
had a long-running stateful web-service, I would look at using WCF to
host it in a dedicated windows service process (there are sample project
templates for this in VS2008u and VS2005 with the WF extension). That
way, you control the lifetime etc.

Ok, I goti it now.

Neither do I.
At this point my first choiche would be to create a windows service
process and make my web-service code-behind "talk" to it. My question
is: should I use remoting (or things similar) to make my objects pass
from the windows service context to the web service (IIS) one?

To use WCF, yes; WCF is part of .NET 3.0 and won't work without it.

Actually, WCF would be my first choice for IPC too... (perhaps on a
net-tcp binding or named pipe in this case) - but remoting is an option.
Personally, I get very confused by remoting, but if remoting works for
you, then fine; this would allow you to work without .NET 3.0, as you
could have you ASP.NET web-service talk to a well-known object (or
whatever the term is in remoting - see, I'm already lost!).
Your existing ASP.NET talking to a remoting service may well be less
complex and involve less changes.
Note that WCF running from a service or a console exe can expose itself
directly over http etc as though it were running inside IIS. In fact,
even WCF running inside IIS don't run through the same ASP.NET pipeline...

I see.
Anyway I'm stiil experiencing the same absurd problem: two similar

Yes, I know a bit of WCF, but should get through deeper... (when I have
time I'll do).
Thanks a lot,
