Hi, Thank you so much for your comments. I looked at the CodeProject article you suggested, and it had a pretty much similar idea. I would like to reformat the source code according to the boost coding standards and integrate with boost.interface. I believe this is possible because "The Code Project Open License (CPOL) 1.0" http://www.codeproject.com/info/cpol10.aspx seems to be compatible with the boost licence*.* IANAL: Somone please help me to verify this. I'm looking forward to hearing from you. Thanks Salinda On Fri, Mar 21, 2008 at 8:31 PM, Paolo Coletta <paolo@rcpstudio.it> wrote:

Hi,

you could also take a look to this work by Jarl Lindrud (http://www.codeproject.com/KB/threads/Rcf_Ipc_For_Cpp.aspx), which is already based on boost (uses boost asio and boost serialization, but also provides custom alternatives for both), but it's not in the form of a boost library. In the past there has been some discussion about possible integration between this library and boost.interface. As a user, I'd highly appreciate to have one such library in boost (I'm currently using the library by Lindrud in several projects).

Hi All,

For the google summer of code 2008, I wish to build a Cross Platform Remote Method Invocation Framework for C++ using Boost.Asio, similar to Java's remote method invocation (RMI). I will provide some macro definitions to create the proxy code.

Please provide me your comments to adjust this idea to best suit the interests of boost community. I higly appreciate your suggestions.

A sample code that will use this framework wold look like,

account.h -------------- DECLARE_BEGIN_PROXY(account) DECLARE_METHOD_1(deposit, void, double); DECLARE_METHOD_0(get_balance, double); DECLARE_END;

class account { .......... ......... }

Server Code ----------------- account acc = new account("Foo", 250); Server s = new server(server::TCP, 19000); s.attach("Foo", acc); s.run();

Client Code ---------------- account_proxy acct = account_proxy::get_proxy("172.25.44.195", server::TCP, 19000, "Foo"); acct.deposit(100); double balance = acct.get_balance();
