error handling - byref params not modified if an exception is thro

[Luis Fajardo]

I noticed the byref parameters doesn't get changed if during the execution of
the web service an exception is thrown.

Sample code:

-->Client
public class WSClient{
public void Execute(){
int i = 0;
try{
WSServer server = new WSServer();
server.Execute(ref i);
}
catch(Exception e){
Console.WriteLine(i.ToString());
}
}
}

-->Server
public class WSServer : System.Web.Services.WebService{
[WebMethod]
public void Execute(ref int i){
i = 100;
throw new Exception("i does't change!!!, too bad!!!");
}
}

Why? I'm having the same problem with .NET Remoting, but local calls
obviously works fine. Work arounds? How should I do it?
Thanks in advance.
