Summary

   

DCOM is a very big subject that deserves an entire book by itself. It's a huge technology that has many subtle aspects. In this chapter, it's most important features were addressed.

You were introduced to DCOM and learned that it brings remote capabilities to COM objects, and that it introduces important issues like security as well.

You learned how to use the DCOMCnfg configuration tool to control DCOM settings stored in the Registry for specific components and for all components in the system.

You also saw how to use CoInitializeSecurity() to programmatically control security at server- and client-sides, and you learned how to control security at the interface level through the use of IClientSecurity and IServerSecurity interfaces implemented by the Proxy and Stub managers.

DCOM is not the only distributed systems technology available to you in C++Builder. The following chapters will take you on a tour of what's left.
