Hi, Well, I'm currently investigating how implement DCOM on other systems. I know it WAS implemented for UN*X and Linux by 3rd party companies but they didn't release the code.
Working with DCOM shouldn't be that hard since I only need a proxy alive and a way to marshal data to it (at first it can be other proxies or simple data types. It might give us what we want. Although I have a question. I will try to implement DCOM in C or C++ (I haven't decided yet), I persume I need to use some form of Platform Invoke to call this code, right? Can you point me out to a place where P/Invoke was used so I can check it out a bit?

I think the current stance about COM support is: we're waiting for someone that needs it and contributes the code:-) I guess something that works, even if it's slow, is better than nothing. If you have the skills and the time to contribute in this area, you're welcome! Feel free to ask any questions about how best to integrate the code into the mono runtime.
