[Mono-list] Some solution between TcpClient and Remoting?

[Arne Claassen]

I'm writing some client/server code and love the ease of Remoting. But 
I feel that this not only risks my platform compatibility, but even 
.NET and Mono release version compatibilty.

At the other end of the spectrum, i can write my client/server code 
using TcpListener and TcpClient anddefine my own protocol. But now i'm 
reading data byte by byte and have to build the infrastructure for 
converting the raw data into my protocol.

Is my fear of Remoting incompatibilities unfounded or is there some 
library out there already for mono that sits somewhere in between these 
two extremes, implementing the message loop of the server and letting 
you push messages with some object wrapper?

thanks,
arne
