 com and com+ in .net Sorry if my question seem to be martian... What is the future of COM and COM+ in the new .NET era? I must admit I am
new to .NET but I am curious how do you feel about the place of these mature
technologies in the new .NET context.
TIA

Unchanged. COM and COM+ are fully intermixable with .NET. You can use COM objects from .NET, you can implement COM objects with .NET. The .NET framework provides specific support for COM+ services. My $0.02

com and com+ in .net My feeling is that existence of COM/COM+ will be due to legacy applications. If one is writing a new app, .net is the way to go. HTH

com and com+ in .net That's exactly what I was afraid of. Is the general opinion the same, .NET will obsolete somehow COM/COM+?

com and com+ in .net .NET relies on COM+ for its enterprise features. At least for the time being these technologies are complimentary. And COM is one of the core technologies that is not going away any time soon either, although from the client's perspective, there will be more and more .NET managed APIs exposed over time, which will provide developer with a choice of interfaces.

Ah, and how do you get the services offered by COM+ in .NET?

COM will die some day. Like DDE had a slow death :) COM+ hm... Until now COM+ offers many services which are not part of .NET. I'm not sure whether MS will port it or not.

Through API calls and attributes.

APIs, attributes? And the services come from out of the blue? :) The APIs and attributes result in calls whichs interops with COM+.

the tell-tale sign, for me, that .NET will have a new "COM+" architecture soon (?) is exactly what Lars-Inge talks about - attributes. As soon as the new .NET component services architecture, which is of course
going to be 100% .NET too, is available we won't even need to recompile ...
simply re-register the existing .NET components with a new .NET registration
utility and viola!
you can see I am dreaming, heh! :)

DDE was an {*filter*}. It never really lived to die a slow death, if you asked my 2c. :) Quote: > COM+ hm... Until now COM+ offers many services which are not part of .NET.

I think otherwise. I somehow get the feeling MS will launch a 100% .NET version of COM+ soon. A whole new set of toys too (rubbing hands) .... I hope.

com and com+ in .net Interesting detail: the .NET CLR is just one big COM server that can be hosted by any conventional Windows application to be used as a super-scripting engine. Furthermore, COM is likely to remain the infrastructure for the Windows
operating system, used as a plug-in mechanism for new features (like .NET
:-) ). Look at .NET as a Windows application that uses a lot of COM
functionality. Doesn't that make you feel better?
As someone else mentioned, .NET builds on COM(+) services for many of its
features like it could use the available services on any other operating
system to make those features available in that other environment.
