Book Description

Pro-Developer October 25, 2002

This title shows developers how to build Internet-based, distributed applications using Microsoft .NET Remoting, which enables powerful remote interaction among objects. A fundamental understanding of .NET Remoting is crucial as developers shift to developing distributed, Internet-based applications. Until recently, DCOM was the preferred method for developing distributed applications on Microsoft platforms. But as this book demonstrates, the .NET Remoting architecture is much easier to use and extend than DCOM. The book covers all aspects of .NET Remoting, including in-depth coverage of the .NET Remoting architecture plus concrete examples, best practices, and performance tips to show how to extend and customize the framework.

  • Provides developers with deep design and implementation guidance to help them build better distributed applications on the Microsoft .NET Framework
  • One third of the book introduces readers to the basics of using .NET Remoting to develop distributed application
  • Two-thirds of the book covers advanced features of .NET Remoting plus details on how to extend and customize the framework

3.0 out of 5 stars Detailed book, badly presented, April 11, 2003
By A Customer
This review is from: Microsoft® .NET Remoting (Pro-Developer) (Paperback)
I have mixed feelings about this book. On the one hand it excels in terms of content, tackling the more complex issues of .NET remoting including the creation of custom channel sinks; on the other hand it is severely let down by its poor presentation.

The book doesn't come with a CD, although viewing the code in its entirity is essential to understanding the issues presented in this book. Fortunately the code is available for download from the net.

The authors often fail to provide a substantial overview of the particular topics discussed in this book and present pieces of code in a piecemeal fashion which has no relevance until you reach the end of the chapter and are able to piece it all together.

This is a good book, but if you are new to the topic of .NET remoting, as I was, then prepare to dip into MSDN and spend time reviewing the code, in order to get a true understanding of this topic.

1.0 out of 5 stars This book is awful. . . Get Rammers .Net Remoting Bible, July 13, 2005
This review is from: Microsoft® .NET Remoting (Pro-Developer) (Paperback)
This has to be on of the poorest written books I have ever purchased.

.Net remoting is not very difficult nor confusing but my God does MS .Net remoting make it seem so.

If you want a .Net remoting book that makes sense, get Ingo Rammer's:

Advanced .Net Remoting, second ed.
