Hi.
I´m test the silverlight sample to rsm. In the code i found this comments
 
// Using type/method names is not resilient to changes, but using the ServerMethodDelegate means that you must define a class/method stub on the client and use the same assembly name.
 
What do you mean with "and use the same assembly name."?
thanks.

Hi rbautistaole,

This is one of those things that are clearer to see than explain. I've modified the Silverlight_RSM sample here to show what this means. Basically the structure of the solution is:

DomainModel
DomainModel.SL - Has file links to DomainModel. If you look at this project properties, I had changed the Assembly Name to DomainModel instead of DomainModel.SL
SimpleECS - Has reference to DomainModel.SL
SimpleECSWeb - Has reference to DomainModel

uploads/912/SimpleECS.zip - uploads/912/SimpleECS.zip

Hope this helps.

Hi.

Sorry.
I don´t see the point. I get an error in the second button, but this is invoke the rsm with the typename and methodName not with the ServerMethodDelegate.

Yes, that's because I didn't change the typeName on the second method since I was illustrating an example for ServerMethodDelegate. To make the second button works, change the typeName to

var typeName = "DomainModel.ServerMethods, DomainModel";

I was playing with those yesterday. Suggestion: Somehow make it work if DLL names differ. I think it's common to name DLL's like MyData.DLL and MyData.SL.dll which will make Delegate impossible..
 
Doing it by type name is not good at all..

Thanks for the suggestion katit. I'm adding this as a feature request.
