How to simulate in C#, a VB6 Activex EXE Standalone application which exposes a com visible object .

SuperMiQi asked:

Hello everyone,

My previous question was maybe not so good formulated.
I will explain my query as follow:

Do you know how to simulate in C#, a VB6 Activex EXE Standalone application which exposes a com visible object (IDispatch wrapper class) already instanced in the 'activex exe like' c# application? The clients accessing it via creatobject / getobject will always get a reference on this object.

This does not seem to be so straight forward as I experimented in vb.net.
Is it related to .net interop ?

If I understand the best way will be to expose a .NET Remoting object (application life time) then creating a COM interop class library which will be used like a tunnel between the two communication solutions.

Is it what you have in mind ?

Hope this will help you to understand my question.

Any inputs you could share for this are really welcome ?

Thank you so much in advance.
