Examples

The following code example demonstrates how to get the session ID string for the current session.

C#

public void ProcessMessageStart(IMessage requestMessage, bool bClientSide, bool bAsyncCall) {

   Console.WriteLine("\nProcessMessageStart");
   Console.WriteLine("requestMessage = {0}", requestMessage);

   try {
      Console.WriteLine("SessionId = {0}.",
          RemotingServices.GetSessionIdForMethodMessage((IMethodMessage)requestMessage));
   }
   catch (InvalidCastException) {
      Console.WriteLine("The requestMessage is not an IMethodMessage.");
   }

   IMethodCallMessage requestMethodCallMessage;

   try {
      requestMethodCallMessage = (IMethodCallMessage)requestMessage;
      // Prints the details of the IMethodCallMessage to the console.
      Console.WriteLine("\nMethodCall details");
      Console.WriteLine("Uri = {0}", requestMethodCallMessage.Uri);
      Console.WriteLine("TypeName = {0}", requestMethodCallMessage.TypeName);
      Console.WriteLine("MethodName = {0}", requestMethodCallMessage.MethodName);
      Console.WriteLine("ArgCount = {0}", requestMethodCallMessage.ArgCount);

      Console.WriteLine("MethodCall.Args");
      foreach(object o in requestMethodCallMessage.Args)
          Console.WriteLine("\t{0}", o);

      // Sends this method call message to another server to replicate
      // the call at the second server.
      if (requestMethodCallMessage.Uri == replicatedServiceUri) {

         SampleService replicationService =
            (SampleService)Activator.GetObject(typeof(SampleService),
            replicationServerUrl + replicatedServiceUri);

         IMethodReturnMessage returnMessage =
            RemotingServices.ExecuteMessage(replicationService, requestMethodCallMessage);

         // Prints the results of the method call stored in the IMethodReturnMessage.
         Console.WriteLine("\nMessage returned by ExecuteMessage.");
         Console.WriteLine("\tException = {0}", returnMessage.Exception);
         Console.WriteLine("\tReturnValue = {0}", returnMessage.ReturnValue);
         Console.WriteLine("\tOutArgCount = {0}", returnMessage.OutArgCount);
         Console.WriteLine("Return message OutArgs");

         foreach(object o in requestMethodCallMessage.Args)
            Console.WriteLine("\t{0}", o);
      }
   }
   catch (InvalidCastException) {
       Console.WriteLine("The requestMessage is not a MethodCall");
   }
}

Remarks

The same session ID might be returned for objects in the same application, but this method will never return the same session ID for two objects in different remote applications.
