Thanks for your notes, Steve I am going to work through the firewall, so your comments are reasonable - that is, I can't ping the client-side from the server. >How does dotNet with its unsolicited events do that? >AFAIK, when building a webservice with C#, a lightweight >http server is built in the client-side app to be notified of events. >Is it a particular solution for working behind the firewall only? I thought events were only in .net remoting, and no, it doesnt go back through the firewall. Have you heard about that? >Another possibility is to establish a permanent (lasting) >connection from the client to the server which will follow some custom >notification protocol. >On the server side there could be a servlet that never closes >the connection and writes small pieces of data to the output stream >when new events should be read by the client from the soap endpoint. >What would you say about that? or use a protocol like jabber or beep...
