How to: Call the Methods of a Remote Object Asynchronously

  • Article

This topic is specific to a legacy technology that is retained for backward compatibility with existing applications and is not recommended for new development. Distributed applications should now be developed using the Windows Communication Foundation (WCF).

The process for asynchronous programming is as straightforward as that for a single application domain.

To call a method of a remote object asynchronously

  • Create an instance of an object that can receive a remote call to a method.

    Dim obj as ServiceClass = new ServiceClass()

ServiceClass obj = new ServiceClass();

AsyncCallback RemoteCallback = new AsyncCallback(this.OurRemoteAsyncCallback);

 [C#]
int count = 0;
while (!RemAr.IsCompleted)
{
    Console.Write("\rNot completed: " + (++count).ToString());
    Thread.Sleep(1);
}
