Microsoft Visual Studio 2008/.NET Framework 3.5

.NET Framework Class Library
ServicedComponent Class

Represents the base class of all classes using COM+ services.

Namespace:  System.EnterpriseServices
Assembly:  System.EnterpriseServices (in System.EnterpriseServices.dll)
Visual Basic (Declaration)
<SerializableAttribute> _
Public MustInherit Class ServicedComponent _
    Inherits ContextBoundObject _
    Implements IRemoteDispatch, IDisposable, IServicedComponentInfo
Visual Basic (Usage)
Dim instance As ServicedComponent
C#
[SerializableAttribute]
public abstract class ServicedComponent : ContextBoundObject, 
    IRemoteDispatch, IDisposable, IServicedComponentInfo
Visual C++
[SerializableAttribute]
public ref class ServicedComponent abstract : public ContextBoundObject, 
    IRemoteDispatch, IDisposable, IServicedComponentInfo
JScript
public abstract class ServicedComponent extends ContextBoundObject implements IRemoteDispatch, IDisposable, IServicedComponentInfo

Under certain conditions, a class that is derived from ServicedComponent that runs in a COM+ application may stop responding. This problem is caused by an Activity deadlock. Activities can deadlock on multithreaded applications because of an asynchronous cleanup of component references. To work around this problem, call the Dispose method when you complete work with objects derived from ServicedComponent. For more information, see http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;327443.

NoteNote:

Client code must call Dispose on serviced components to ensure proper operation.

The following code example demonstrates how to expose a class as a configured COM component.

C#
using System;
using System.EnterpriseServices;

[assembly: ApplicationName("Calculator")]
[assembly: ApplicationActivation(ActivationOption.Library)]
[assembly: System.Reflection.AssemblyKeyFile("Calculator.snk")]
public class Calculator : ServicedComponent
{
    public int Add (int x, int y)
    {
        return(x+y);
    }
}
Visual C++
[assembly:ApplicationName("Calculator")];
[assembly:ApplicationActivation(ActivationOption::Library)];
[assembly:System::Reflection::AssemblyKeyFile("Calculator.snk")];
public ref class Calculator: public ServicedComponent
{
public:
   int Add( int x, int y )
   {
      return (x + y);
   }

};

CPP_OLD
[assembly: ApplicationName(S"Calculator")]
[assembly: ApplicationActivation(ActivationOption::Library)]
[assembly: System::Reflection::AssemblyKeyFile(S"Calculator.snk")];

public __gc class Calculator : public ServicedComponent {
public:
  int Add (int x, int y) {
    return(x+y);
  }
};

To deploy this class as a configured COM component, you must generate a strong key, compile the class as a library, and register the library. These three steps are accomplished by the following three commands.

 sn -k Calculator.snk
 csc /t:library Calculator.cs
 regsvcs Calculator.dll
Any public static (Shared in Visual Basic) members of this type are thread safe. Any instance members are not guaranteed to be thread safe.
