Does MVVMCross use tcp to have remote views










0















I'm new to MVVMCross and I'm trying to see if it does remote views over tcp. From the docs I have read, it looks like the only remote part would be the database (eg MSSQL over TCP) but that seems all wrong.



Does MVVMCross have a communications layer between the ModelView and the Model ? If so, is there any documentation on it. I have looked but have not found any.



What I'm trying to achieve is to have most of the application on one machine and have a thin client (ie the View) able to run remotly. The only information I have found on this is that it seems to be done for mobile devices but I have not been able to find any details on the communications interface.

  • mmm I'm not sure if I follow. Do you want to have a mobile app that displays something that is processed elsewhere? Why don't you make an app and connect it to the server using an HttpClient? So you get the data and display in the mobile device as you want. If what you want is something else please explain a little more and I'll try to help

  • I'm trying to determine if MVVMCross allows the Model to be on a server and the View to be on a client. Is it able to perform the TCP communications between the Model and the View managing the transfer of the ViewModel data between the 2 ?

AFAIK it doesn't. You should communicate with your server through HttpClient or if you want something more real time you can use something like SignalR to get your model and update the Viewmodel which will end up updating the View.



If you want an example of either approaches tell me.



HIH.
