need help with config file

i have a remote object in the server side which implements an interface that declared in a dll.
something like that:

DLL-
interface Iremote{..}

Server Side-
class RemoteClass implements Iremote{..}

Client Side-
//connect to server
//Activator.GetObject --> typeof Iremote!!


till now everything is ok
now im trying to put it in a configuration file:

<service>
<wellknown mode="Singleton"
type="ServerSide.RemoteClass ,ServerSide" />
</service>

but what should i write in the "type"??
i know ServerSide.RemoteClass is wrong,
the type supposed to be - new RemoteClass().GetType()
but how to write that in the config?

thanks in advanced

I assume that the config file is on the client side. So since ServerSide.RemoteClass implements the interface IRemote you can simply write:

<service>
<wellknown mode="Singleton"
type="<IRemoteNamespace>.IRemote, <IRemoteNamespace>" />
</service>

Where <IRemoteNamespace> is the namespace of the IRemote interface.
Hope this works for you.

actually the config file is on the server side
so i tried that-
<service>
<wellknown mode="Singleton" type="IRemoteNamespace.IRemote,IRemoteNamespace" objectUri="Server.rem"/>
</service>

but its not working.
what else can it be?
thanks

plz..plz..plz..
anyone?

Don't know any specifics but the following links may give you more background information

.NET Remoting FAQ

(Maybe) in particular: HOWTO: Use Interface-based remote objects with config files

thanks but id didnt found there what i need...
any more ideas?

I for one find it diificult to debug code I cannot see...

Any chance you can post the client, server and shared library code, as well as the client and server config files?

ok, here is the code-
//class library
public interface IRemoteObject
{
Guid register();
}

//client side(inside main)
TcpChannel chan=new TcpChannel();
ChannelServices.RegisterChannel(chan);
IRemoteObject obj=(Library.IRemoteObject)Activator.GetObject(typeof(Library.IRemoteObject),"tcp://localhost:8085/Server");
Guid id=obj.register();

//server side(inside main)
RemotingConfiguration.Configure("ServerSide.exe.config");

//server side (config)
<system.runtime.remoting>
<application>
<channels>
<channel name="channel1" ref="tcp" port="8085"></channel>
</channels>
<service>
<wellknown mode="Singleton" type="ServerSide.TasksManagement,ServerSide" objectUri="ServerSide.rem"/>
</service>
</application>
</system.runtime.remoting>

//server side(remote object)
public class TasksManagement: MarshalByRefObject,IRemoteObject
{
public Guid register()
{ return System.Guid.NewGuid();
}
}

Quick guess: Shouldn't "tcp://localhost:8085/Server" match your server config ie. "tcp//localhost:8055/ServerSide.rem" ?

ok so i changed it in the server side to-
IRemoteObject obj=(Library.IRemoteObject)Activator.GetObject(typeof(Library.IRemoteObject),"tcp://localhost:8085/ServerSide/TasksManagement.rem");

and in he config on the server side i wrote-
<wellknown mode="Singleton" type="ServerSide.TasksManagement,ServerSide" objectUri="TasksManagement.rem"/>

but it still not working...

This is still wrong:
"tcp://localhost:8085/ServerSide/TasksManagement.rem"

Should be:
"tcp://localhost:8085/TasksManagement.rem"

This may still not work but it definitely won't work with such obvious mistakes.

PS. I assume your server code actually is

Code:

---

RemotingConfiguration.Configure("ServerSide.exe.config");
Console.ReadLine();

---

yes

Working now then?

still not working

I took your code and it works fine!!!

Attached are the files I used in three separate assemblies; ServerSide, Library and Client respectively.

Below is the ServerSide config.

Code:

---

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<configuration>
        <system.runtime.remoting>
                <application>
                        <channels>
                                <channel name="channel1" ref="tcp" port="8085"></channel>
                        </channels>
                        <service>
                                <wellknown mode="Singleton" type="ServerSide.TasksManagement, ServerSide" objectUri="TaskManagement.rem" />
                        </service>
                </application>
        </system.runtime.remoting>
</configuration>

well..after i created a new project and deal with RegServer it worked!!
so thanks a lot for the help :)
