.NET Remoting vs COM+ Serviced Component

[Guest]

I am currently working on moving our business objects into COM+ serviced
components. But in the process, there are too many changes such ComVisible
and serviced component does not support parameterized constructors. So I am
thinking whether I should change to use .NET remoting instead.

Have anybody else gone through this .NET remoting vs serviced component
comparison before? Which one is better?
Can .NET remoting support object pooling and other features provided by COM+.

By the way, I am not planning to use COM+ transaction control and security.

Thanks a lot.

Hello BF,

Object pooling is the COM+ feature.

Does only the COMVisibility attriribute inspur u to switch on Remoting? Or
smth else?

We've been using COM+ for 3 years and I found it more usable over remoting.
COM+ is faster in some scenarious and more flexible to be migrated to WCF.

One major reason I am hesitating to user COM+ serviced components is because
serviced component does not support parameterized constructors. I need to
make lots of changes in my code.
The other one, which could cause issues in the future is that if a Class is
derived from Generic List, it cannot be a serviced component. Microsoft said
they have already fixed this issue. But I still have this problem in my
development environment.

Thanks a lot.
