This application provides a host process for the objects defined in RemoteCustomer.dll.
This application when started will read the remoting.config file to figure out what objects should be exposed, how, and on what port.
Requires the Trial or Release version of Visual Studio .NET Professional (or greater).
In order for the client to 'load' the objects, it reads Host.exe.config file at startup. The application's assumption is that the file lives in the same directory as the exe file. Note that the file itself is stored at the source directory level as app.config. When you compile the application, the file is automatically copied to the output directory with the correct name.
In addition, the host assumes it will find RemoteCustomer.dll in the same directory as the remoting.config file. Note that host.exe is taking the place of DLLHOST.EXE in COM+ (MTX.EXE in MTS under Windows NT 4.0).
For a production application, you might consider a Windows service or hosting the RemoteCustomer.dll inside IIS.
