Yes I'm on the list, and unfortunately for you you've been beat already.
There is an (early) implementation of Remoting for .NET, it's on
starwolf.ch.

You may want to check out OpenAMF [http://www.openamf.org/], an open-source
Java remoting gateway.
Architectural considerations are much more similar between Java and .NET than
PHP and .NET, so it may
be a better version to port (assuming they've already solved those problems).

Well, I've looked around and haven't found one of these, but it would be
helpful for me, so I'm
proposing a new OS Flash project: An open-source Flash Remoting gateway for .NET
Since the kind folks who built AMFPHP have already done so much of the work, I
was thinking of using
that implementation as the jumping-off point, in particular for the
deserialization/serialization, but
also for the architecture unless I can find reasons not to.
Any thoughts? I'm sure there are several people on this list with plenty of
AMFPHP experience. I don't
know if Patrick Mineault is on this list, but if you are (or others who have
been involved in
designing/building AMFPHP) then I would greatly appreciate your insights. For
my part I have used
AMFPHP somewhat (I have php on my personal site; .NET at work) and have dug
into the source code quite
a bit in anticipation of this project.
Here are some questions I have, that I would love to get feedback on:
- What are some of the strengths and weaknesses of the AMFPHP architecture? If
you could design that
system from scratch today, would you use the same architecture or a different
one?
- Anyone else attempted to build an AMF gateway? What lessons did you learn?
Should I turn back now
while I'm ahead? =)
- Is anyone else interested in having (or helping build or test) an OS Flash
Remoting gateway for
.NET?
Obviously there will be some necessary changes due to differences in PHP and
C#/.NET, and I already
have some thoughts about some changes based on specific things that are
available in .NET that (I
assume) aren't available in PHP. But having never designed an AMF gateway
before, I'd appreciate
thoughts from any of you who have done so, or at least spent some time thinking
about it.
Thanks for your feedback!
