Communication between process using Distributed Object


I can't manage to vend proxy object, it just stuck on client side when try to get connection

NSConnection *conn = [NSConnection connectionWithRegisteredName:@"server"  host:nil];

Here is how I register connection and vend object

//server
-(void)initServer {

NSConnection * connection = [[NSConnection alloc]init];

MZRemoteObject * obj = [[MZRemoteObject alloc]init];
obj.message = @"hello world";
[connection setRootObject:obj];
if([connection registerName:@"server"]== NO){
    NSLog(@"error Register Server");
}
NSLog(@"Registered Server");
}

Client side(getting vended object)

- (void)recieveMessage {

NSDistantObject *proxy;
NSConnection *conn = [NSConnection connectionWithRegisteredName:@"server"  host:nil];

if (!conn) {
    NSLog(@"conn recieve message error");
}

proxy = [conn rootProxy];
MZRemoteObject * obj =(MZRemoteObject*)proxy;

if (!proxy) {
    NSLog(@"proxy,recieve message error");
}
NSLog(@"----%@",obj.message);
}

Could any one tell me what I am doing wrong ?


Solution

  • [[NSRunLoop currentRunLoop] run];  
    

    Start the current runloop in -(void)initServer method.

    -(void)initServer {
    
    NSConnection * connection = [[NSConnection alloc]init];
    
    MZRemoteObject * obj = [[MZRemoteObject alloc]init];
    obj.message = @"hello world";
    [connection setRootObject:obj];
    if([connection registerName:@"server"]== NO){
        NSLog(@"error Register Server");
    }
    NSLog(@"Registered Server");
    [[NSRunLoop currentRunLoop] run];  
    }
