I'm working on a program in which I want to do something similar to what the Photon Server system does:
- Offer a common "API" class library, which contains common data classes, enumerations, and interfaces for working with the host program.
- Have client programs (class libraries) reference this DLL and implement interfaces listed within it.
- Have the "host" application load built DLL client libraries into separate AppDomains and reference the interfaces that lie within to have polymorphic client code from within a dll file.
I have something like this worked out: a class library that contains common code, but I've run into the following question
How should I handle static classes? Should I add a method that is called by the host program to synchronize data? How do I keep a static class the same between AppDomains? Should I discard these classes in favor of better interfaces between the code levels?
And in general, how do I share data between these loaded AppDomains?
