Sure,
Mark the remote object (and any other objects it references) as serializable using
either the [serializable] attribute or by implementing ISerializable. Once the class
has that, you can serialize it using the following code:
System.Runtime.Serialization.Formatters.Soap.SoapFormatter sf =
new System.Runtime.Serialization.Formatters.Soap.SoapFormatter();
System.IO.Stream stream = System.IO.File.Open
("objectGraph.soap", System.IO.FileMode.Create);
sf.Serialize(stream,obj);
That should persist the object to the file system. Reconstituting it is just as easy,
just use the Deserialize method of the SoapFormatter object...
Hope that helps...

Subject: [DOTNET] Persistent Remote Objects
I would like to create a Remoting object that would persist its data to a file so that
the object state is not lost after I restart the service. Does the framework provide
any way to do this automatically, or do I have to write code to load and save the
state?
I appreciate any suggestion.
Thanks
