Purpose

A TnxRemoteServerEngine component is the local (client side) representation of a remote TnxServerEngine.  It must be connected to a transport component so that it can communicate with a separate server application running either on the same computer or over a network.  The TnxRemoteServerEngine receives method calls and translates them into messages/requests passed to the transport and eventually to the running server.  It can also receive replies from the transport if needed.

Key Properties

CacheAliases

If set to true then the alias list from the server is loaded client side when a connection is first established.  This will speed up operations.  However, if the server changes any alias information, then the client is unaware of such changes until the next time it connects.

Transport

Must be connected to a transport component to connect to a remote server.
