The remote server program is designed to allow a client application to connect and interact with

a server over a TCP channel. The program uses .NET Remoting to expose a remote class
(myRemoteClass) that can be accessed from another machine or another process. The server
listens for client requests on port 8085 and executes the SetString method in the remote class.
This method processes a string input by displaying its value and length on the server console and
returning a confirmation to the client if the string is not empty.

The main components include:

1. Remote Object (myRemoteClass): This is the class that contains the method exposed to
the client.
2. Server Setup (RemoteServerApp): This sets up the TCP channel, registers the remote
object, and keeps the server running until manually terminated.
3. Client Application (if implemented): This connects to the server and invokes the exposed
method.

Enhancement Ideas

1. Support Multiple Connections: Modify the program to handle multiple clients


simultaneously using asynchronous processing or multithreading.
2. Enhance Data Handling: Add features to validate and securely transfer data between the
server and client, such as encryption.
3. Improve Scalability: Replace the current SingleCall mode with a Singleton object mode
to allow shared states across client requests or consider migrating to WCF (Windows
Communication Foundation) for modern communication features.

This project shows the basics of remote server communication but can be expanded to support
advanced functionality for real-world applications.
