Steve, My guess at what is going on - based on my limited understanding of what you're doing - is:
- You have your class definition (DetailData) compiled in to your main application and into your module. - You load your module into your main application - Because you have not specifed that you want your module to be in the same ApplicationDomain as the main application, its class definitions remain segregated from the main application's class definition. - Your module creates the DetailData (whether on return from remoting call or not) by instantiating it's own definition of DetailData (call it class DetailDataA, if that helps). - The event fires from your module to your application. - Your event handler tries to cast the created object - which is of type DetailDataA - to its _own_ definition of DetailData (call it class DetailDataB). Hence your error. No matter that the two class definitions are actually identical - because they are not in the same ApplicationDomain, the code treats them as separate. Now, if you alter your module loading so that you pass in ApplicationDomain.currentDomain as the domain you want the module to load into, the problem should go away. (ModuleLoader.applicationDomain=ApplicationDomain.currentDomain) I hope that makes some sort of sense. Of course, I may have totally misunderstood your situation!
