===============================================================================
NOTE:  Build these projects in the order shown below.
===============================================================================

===============================================================================
IDL
===============================================================================
   This directory contains the interface defintion file for the interfaces
   that are used in all projects within this subdirectories.

   IID_IDetails - This interface is used for demonstrating memory 
   management

   IID_IMemoryManagement - This interface is used to demonstrating
   performance of inproc and outofproc servers.

   You need to compile this IDL file using the midl.exe compiler, as follows:

      midl /Oicf details.idl

   To obtain the interface marshaling code for all interfaces defined within
   the details.idl file.  To wrap up all this code into a DLL, you need to use
   nmake.exe, as follows:

      nmake -f detailsps.mk

   Once you have detailsps.dll, you must register it as follows:

      regsrv32.exe detailsps.dll

   This is required for remote method invocations on custom interfaces.

===============================================================================
DetailsEXE (out-of-process component)
===============================================================================
   This is an outofproc component implements the server side code for the 
   IMemoryManagement and IDetails interfaces.  Once this project 
   has been built, you must register it as follows:

   DetailsEXE.exe -regserver

===============================================================================
DetailsDLL (in-process component)
===============================================================================
   This inproc component implements the server side code for the 
   IMemoryManagement and IDetails interfaces.  Once this project 
   has been built, you must register it as follows:

   regsvr32 DetailsDLL.dll


===============================================================================
MemoryClient
===============================================================================
   This is a client component that uses the DetailsEXE component for memory 
   management testing.  

   To run this component, you must register the DetailsEXE.exe component.

===============================================================================
PerformanceClient
===============================================================================
   This is a client component that uses the DetailsEXE or DetailDLL
   components for performance testing.  To run this component, you
   must have done the above steps.  See Appendix B in the book for
   the data that I've obtained.   To obtain performance results, 
   do the following:

   1. Build the DetailsEXE and DetailsDLL components.
   2. Register DetailsEXE using the -RegServer command-line option.
   3. Register the DetailsDLL component using the regsvr32.exe utility.
   4. Build the proxy/stub code, DetailsPS.dll.
   5. Register this proxy/stub DLL using the regsvr32.exe utility. 
   6. Build the DetailsClient client component.
   7. Install DetailsEXE on a remote machine and register it.  
      Don’t forget to install and register the proxy/stub code.
   8. Use dcomcnfg.exe to set the RemoteServerName entry 
      (on the machine where the DetailsClient component executes) 
      to point to the remote machine (where the remote 
      DetailsEXE component will run).
   9. Use regedit.exe to change the ThreadingModel of the 
      CLSID_Details class object to empty (i.e., ThreadingModel="") 
      and execute DetailsClient.  The performance output will 
      be saved in a file called perform.log.  Observe 
      the performance output.
  10. Repeat step 9 for ThreadingModel="Apartment", 
      ThreadingModel="Free", and ThreadingModel="Both".

CustomMarshaling
===============================================================================

   This directory contains code that demonstrates custom marshaling.  See
   the readme file under this subdirectory for more information.
