Remoting - Private Object per Caller

Remoting server object with "factory" pattern.

The only two settings in WellKnownObjectMode enum are SingleCall (every incoming message gets a new instance) and Singleton, (all incoming messages get the same instance). Neither of these are the same pattern as a standard remotable COM object, where each unique client caller instantiates and keeps a unique remote object.

To simulate this, you can implement a factory pattern. A class function (sometimes static) that creates new instances of the remotable object and returns their interface.

(See sample code in link).

	public class CorporateAccountantExamFactory : 

		MarshalByRefObject, IAccountantExamFactory

		{

			public IAccountantTest CreateAccountTestInstance()

			{

				return new CorporateAccountantTest();

			}

		}

	}



	TcpServerChannel chl = 

		new TcpServerChannel(9988);

	ChannelServices.RegisterChannel(chl);

	RegisterWellKnownServiceType(

		typeof(CorporateAccountantExamFactory),	// Name

		"IExamFactory", // What the outside world calls it

		WellKnownObjectMode.SingleCall); // How to contact
