Do you think that the reverse usage is possible?
I have a lot (200+) of vb6 components (business logic) registered in COM+ 1.5 exposed via the soap toolkit as webservices.
Now I want to migrate them. The possible solution:
- porting to .net: too expensive
- using COM+ 1.5 soap: too slow to install (> 500s), difficult to manage and with some performance loss (but this is not my main concern)
- write some .net interop code to call them
My components have only one version installed at a given time and I use com+ only to assign a particular identity and to manage threads (we use MTSBehavior i.e. 100 threads)
Is it possible to generate a manifest form those vb6 COM components e call them from a .Net 'wrapper'?
