I have been using your XPOPublication service with an HTTP channel and binaryformatter (.net remoting)&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I have been unable to get this to work by overriding OnCreateCustomObjectSpaceProvider.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Do you see anything wrong with the code ?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The service works fine with the Non-XAF application.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;protected override void OnCreateCustomObjectSpaceProvider(CreateCustomObjectSpaceProviderEventArgs args)&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;{&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;string url = @&amp;quot;&lt;a rel="nofollow" target="_new" href="http://dev:1234/WindfallDataService.rem&amp;quot;;"&gt;dev/WindfallDataService.rem&amp;quot;;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;IDataStore dataStore = WindfallObjectSpaceProvider.CreateInstance(url);&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;args.ObjectSpaceProvider = new ObjectSpaceProviderSimple(new SimpleDataLayer(dataStore));&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;}&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;internal static class WindfallObjectSpaceProvider&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;{&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;internal static IDataStore CreateInstance(string url)&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;{&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;RegisterChannel();&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;IDataStore dataStore = (IDataStore)Activator.GetObject(typeof(IDataStore), url);&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;return dataStore;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;}&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;private static void RegisterChannel()&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;{&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;BinaryClientFormatterSinkProvider clientSink = new BinaryClientFormatterSinkProvider();&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;HttpChannel channel = new HttpChannel(null, clientSink, null);&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;ChannelServices.RegisterChannel(channel, false);&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;}&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;As I say above, XPO supports all sorts of connection strings, and details are given on the pages linked from this article. In particular, an example for connections to web services is given on &lt;a rel="nofollow" target="_new" href="http://community.devexpress.com/blogs/xpo/archive/2006/07/13/xpo-through-xml-web-services-a-new-detail.aspx"&gt;this page&lt;/a&gt;, also linked from the article above as the followup on the post &amp;quot;Using Web Services with XPO&amp;quot;.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The post shows this example for a connection string that goes to a web service (and yes, it does contain URL, port and service name): &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
&lt;code&gt;http://localhost:2224/XpoGate/Xpo.asmx&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In XAF, you can use a connection string of this format (or any other format support by XPO) either in the XafApplication.ConnectionString property (that&amp;#39;s the one that can be configured through the application designer in VS) and/or in the app.config/web.config files.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;img src="http://community.devexpress.com/aggbug.aspx?PostID=228833" width="1" height="1"&gt;</description></item><item><title>re: XAF - 10 - Advanced data layer features</title><link>http://community.devexpress.com/blogs/eaf/archive/2008/05/31/xaf-10-advanced-data-layer-features.aspx#228770</link><pubDate>Sun, 27 Jul 2008 18:43:31 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">bd716303-653c-428d-8b8a-a7d998cde032:228770</guid><dc:creator>Dan Arnold</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;&amp;quot;The connection strings that make XPO connect to XML Web Services and .NET Remoting are also supported by XAF directly.&amp;quot;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;For the life of me, this statement makes no sense. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;XPO doesn&amp;#39;t even support a connection string for a service based datastore. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Are you referring to the normal database connectionstring that is used in the Publication Serverice XML file?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;If so, that, how is that a directly supported connection string that XAF understands?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I wish your component sources and XPCollection components wuld actuallytake a connectionstring the referred to a url, port and service name, and if it does, I&amp;#39;ll be thrilled.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Please show me a connection string, as you decribe here, and where it is used in XAF directly.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Thanks,&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Dan.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;PS&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Trying to learn to use your products is always hard due to the multitude of sources (fragmented help and documentation). I have and will continue to push DevExpress to not only provide hyperlinked help, which is impossible to print for offline use, bu to also provide DOCUMENTATION (NOT HELP FILES).&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Otherwis we are faced with reading confusing blog entries that refer to olderblog entries or KB aticles that aren&amp;#39;t always valid anymore.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Please excuse my off topic rant here...but also please hear what your customers are asking for.&lt;/p&gt;
