The .NET Remoting framework offers a flexible and abstract approach to interprocess communication, enabling communication between objects in different application domains or even across different machines. It provides a mechanism for interacting with remote objects without being tied to a specific client or server application domain or a particular communication protocol.
One of the key features of .NET Remoting is its support for distributed object communication over TCP (Transmission Control Protocol) and HTTP (Hypertext Transfer Protocol). It allows objects to be marshaled and transmitted across these transport protocols using either a binary or SOAP (Simple Object Access Protocol) representation of the data stream.
The .NET Remoting framework provides various services to facilitate the remote object communication process. These services include activation and lifetime support, ensuring that remote objects can be created and managed efficiently. Additionally, communication channels play a crucial role in transporting messages between remote applications. These channels handle the transmission of messages and ensure they reach their intended destinations.
The main three components of a Remoting Framework are :
2.C# Remote Listener Application - (listening requests for Remote Object)
3.C# Remote Client Application - (makes requests for Remote Object)
From the following links you can see each components of .Net Remoting in detail.
The .NET Remoting framework provides a powerful and flexible infrastructure for interprocess communication, enabling the creation of distributed applications with ease. It abstracts away the complexities of communication protocols and offers various services to manage object activation, lifetime, and message transportation.
