HttpChannel Class

Implements a client channel for remote calls that uses the HTTP protocol to transmit messages.

Namespace: System.Runtime.Remoting.Channels.Http
Assembly: System.Runtime.Remoting (in system.runtime.remoting.dll)

'Declaration
Public Class HttpChannel
	Inherits BaseChannelWithProperties
	Implements IChannelReceiver, IChannelSender, IChannel, IChannelReceiverHook, _
	ISecurableChannel
'Usage
Dim instance As HttpChannel

public class HttpChannel extends BaseChannelWithProperties implements IChannelReceiver, IChannelSender,

public class HttpChannel extends BaseChannelWithProperties implements IChannelReceiver, IChannelSender, 
	IChannel, IChannelReceiverHook, ISecurableChannel

Channels transport messages across remoting boundaries (for example, between computers or application domains). The HttpChannel class transports messages using the HTTP protocol.

Channels are used by the .NET Framework remoting infrastructure to transport remote calls. When a client makes a call to a remote object, the call is serialized into a message that is sent by a client channel and received by a server channel. It is then deserialized and processed. Any returned values are transmitted by the server channel and received by the client channel.

A HttpChannel object has associated configuration properties that can be set at run time either in a configuration file (by invoking the static RemotingConfiguration.Configure method) or programmatically (by passing a IDictionary collection to the HttpChannel constructor). For a list of these configuration properties, see Channel and Formatter Configuration Properties.

The following code example shows how to use a HttpClientChannel to set up a remoting server and its client. The example contains three parts:

  • A server

  • A client

  • A remote object used by the server and the client

The following code example shows a server.
