Pavel Tupitsyn commented on IGNITE-1894:
----------------------------------------

Different implementation idea:

Use expression trees instead of raw delegates, for example:
{code}
public static TRes Call2<TRes>(this ICompute compute, Expression<Func<TRes>> 
func)
{code}

This is very cool: users won't have to ship DLLs to remote nodes! We'll 
serialize the expression and compile it on the other end. 
This is some kind of "Peer class loading lite" - limited, but easy to implement 
and easy on resources.

Considerations:
* Expressions have more limits than raw delegates
* Expressions are not serializable. We'll have to use a third-party lib 
(https://github.com/mcintyre321/metalinq, http://expressiontree.codeplex.com/) 
or roll our own.

> In many places we require a single-method interface implementation from the 
> user:
> {code:title=ICompute}
> TRes Call<TRes>(IComputeFunc<TRes> clo);
> {code}
> All of these can be extended to accept a delegate:
> {code:title=ICompute}
> TRes Call<TRes>(Func<TRes> clo);
> {code}
> We can't replace interfaces with delegates completely (which is desirable), 
> because it will take away serialization control from the user. So the 
> interface approach has to stay as a primary.
> Delegate support can be added via extension methods, which wrap provided 
> delegates into a class that implements corresponding interface.
