.NET Remote Client Object Sample Code: Client-activated, IIS Hosted, Client

A simple console application that demonstrates how to execute a task via a client-activated remote object. The remote component is hosted in IIS and includes a corresponding configuration file.

using System;
using System.Runtime.Remoting;

// NOTE: Add project reference to IVTNO.DLL
// 1. Project \ Add Reference... menu item
// 2. Use Browse button to find and add DLL.
using IVTNO;

    static void Main(string[] args)
    {

      try

        //(hosted in IIS)
        RemotingConfiguration.Configure("C:\\Program Files\\Attachmate\\EAI\\IMSClient\\samples\\IVTNO\\remote\\IVTNO\\RemoteIVTNOClient.config");

        //Instantiate the remote object
        remoteIVTNO = new IVTNO.RemoteIVTNO();

        //Prepare the remote object for stateless execution
        remoteIVTNO.open();

        finally
      {
