Capture Remoting Event?

[lucius]

I have a Remoting server (via Http channel) with many objects that are
CAO.

I would like to hook some kind of overall "Remoting primary" event so
I can log every time anything is done with the server. I do not want
to change the implementation of the objects, I just want something
that acts a little bit like a web server HTTP log.

Thanks.

Hi lucius,

I think you can use ITrackingHandler to do this. Here's an example on this:

Please reply here to let me know if this helps or not.

According to that link, ITrackingHandler is only supported in CAOs. I
have server-side Single Call Objects. Maybe I need to use a
server-side channel sink? If so, please show a sample.

Thanks.

Hi lucius,

I think your idea about using a custom channel sink is reasonable. In .NET
remoting, if you want to add a common injection point which can hook the
client-server message communications and do some customization or
monitoring task(logging), custom channel sink is the expected approach.
Just like the SoapExtension in ASP.NET webservice, you can inject and chain
multiple custom sinks into the client or server's channel sink chain.

#Sinks and Sink Chains

Here are some examples which have used custom sinks for customization
purpose:

#Secure Your .NET Remoting Traffic by Writing an Asymmetric Encryption
Channel Sink

Hope this helps also.
