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.
