Watch for Events while using Remoting

[BulletSponge]

Hi,
This is my first experience with VB.Net remoting, and it's great except for the fact that I'm having a horrible time trying to figure out how to watch for events that occur on the server.

I've got a Parent APP which starts a Remoting Server and I have a Client APP which accesses that Server using an Interface.


The Cleint Declares an object AS the interface like;- (Dim RServer as IRemoteInterface).

The IRemoteInterface interface object has the following declarations;

ReadOnlyProperty GetCompanyID() As Long
ReadOnlyProperty GetContactID() As Long
WriteOnlyProperty SetCompanyID() As Long
WriteOnlyProperty SetContactID() As Long


The Library used has the following;
PublicClass RemoteLib

..... Inherits MarshalByRefObject
..... Implements IRemoteDIA
..... Private m_CompanyID AsLong
..... Private m_ContactID AsLong



PublicReadOnlyProperty GetCompanyID() AsLongImplements IRemoteDIA.GetCompanyID
..... Get
.......... Return m_CompanyID
..... EndGet
EndProperty


PublicWriteOnlyProperty SetCompanyID() AsLongImplements IRemoteDIA.SetCompanyID
..... Set(ByVal t_Value As Long
.......... m_CompanyID = t_Value
..... EndSet
EndProperty

PublicReadOnlyProperty GetContactID() AsLongImplements IRemoteDIA.GetContactID
..... Get
.......... Return m_ContactID
..... EndGet
EndProperty



PublicWriteOnlyProperty SetContactID() AsLongImplements IRemoteDIA.SetContactID
..... Set(ByVal t_Value AsLong)
.......... m_ContactID = t_Value
..... EndSet
EndProperty

EndClass

In the Client app, I Declared an object and can check the values.
Dim RServer as IRemoteInterface

Console.Write RServer.GetCompany

How in the world do I get the values without using a Timed loop?

This article has three different solutions with different difficulty levels. I know its in C# code, but it shouldnt be too hard to convert it.
