hi ken,


So, the questions are: is -getServer called on the main thread? Is the client object, the one which you pass to the server with - registerClient:. retained so that it is still alive when the ping comes?


the object i send is shared object, which exist until the application quits.

Regards

I am developing a client/server application using DO. In server an object is vended to be accessible by clients.In the client side i am accessing vended object and get required info from server.Every thing works fine. Until now my client queries server and server replies to that. But on serverside if any updates goes, i had to inform client.so i thought of registering the client and ping the client for updates.So in Client side i get vended object and registered it to server.When my server pings the client its giving error *** NSDistantObject initWithCoder: 0x1 not given away for conn 0xf8937f0

Can you break on this error? On what line of code is it happening? What's the backtrace?

this exception occurs when server pings,

2009-04-30 13:22:13.835 Project X[7044:10b] *** NSDistantObject initWithCoder: 0x1 not given away for conn 0x10c17ce0

It looks like the above is separate from the below exception, although probably related. That message is far from clear. An Apple engineer may be able to help.

It seems to be saying that it has received an object identifier (0x1) which doesn't correspond to any object that was sent out on the connection in question.

@implementation ServerObject : NSObject
-(void)registerClient:(id<NetClientProto>)client {

You didn't show the NetClientProto protocol, although I'm guessing it's pretty simple.

You didn't comment here. I guess I was too subtle. I was asking to see the protocol declaration.


[serverObject performSelector:@selector(registerClient:) withObject:self];

Why are you using -performSelector:... here? What's the declaration of 'serverObject'?



Best practice is to have a protocol for each side of the connection, defined in a header that is shared between the code bases. Then you don't have to relying on things like - performSelector:... You could just invoke -registerClient: directly.

Such a protocol is also where you'd specify bycopy, oneway, and similar specifiers.

Furthermore, you should use -[NSDistantObject setProtocolForProxy:] for efficiency, and probably NSProtocolChecker (on the server side) for security.
        Thanks , and i will probably implement this

It -- the use of a protocol and avoiding the need for - performSelector:.. -- may actually be important for the correctness of the registration of the client. So, you should try it to see if it fixes the problem.


Is your client then running its run loop, waiting to be pinged? Is it the same thread and run loop where -getServer was called?

No, client is not running in runloop, waiting to be pinged, can u please suggest me how to do this

According to the backtrace you showed above, the client process is in fact waiting in a run loop. It appears to be an application in its main event loop, -[NSApplication run].

So, the questions are: is -getServer called on the main thread? Is the client object, the one which you pass to the server with - registerClient:. retained so that it is still alive when the ping comes?

Regards,
Ken
