Re: .NET and multithread networks server application


The best and most robust of these is the new Windows Communication
Foundation (WCF) in .NET 3.0.

isnt that vista only?

Other good options are Web Services
http://msdn.microsoft.com/webservices/default.aspx

and .NET Remoting.

Remoting may be interesting we have just had a play with it, security
looks like an issue.

All of these are substantially simpler than coding TCP/IP and provide simple
mechanisms to call methods and marshal objects across networks. Of course
.NET also has easy access to TCP/IP sockets so if you really want to write
code at that level, you can.


We may just do that, it what we did in win32, however if Remoting will
handle alot of the plumbing we need we will use it.
