Static methods can not be called remotely

Static methods can not be called remotely

 

The client application can not access to static methods/properties/fields remotely. since you access a static method using classname. staticmethod, instead of objref. staticmethod, there's no proxy involved. so access to static methods always takes place in the client's context.

 

But you can add a thin non-static wrapper around und each static method in order to remote calling.

 

Take the following code snippet as an example:

Public class myclass: marshalbyrefobject

 {

Public static void dosomething (...) // can not be called remotely

{

...

}

 

Public void dosomethingwrapper (...) // can be called remotely

{

Dosomething (...);

}

 }
