To provide enriched GUI in .NET Windows Forms can replace ASP.NET Web Forms in a Web Application.
To host/activate a Windows Forms control within Internet Explorer (IE):
1. Create a Windows Forms control
2. Create an HTML document with an object tag that identifies the Windows Forms control
3. Configure the virtual directory for proper activation of the control
4. Configure Code Access Permissions
5. Run the control
.NET Redistributable should be present in the client to run this control in IE.
What will be the performance of a page designed in this manner?
An ASP.NET page (using Web Forms) provides a performance of around 3 seconds over a decent internet link. Will the same be achievable using Windows Forms?
No doubt, Windows Forms provide the best performance for Desktop Applications, but what about in a Web Application as explained above?
This approach is similar to Java Applets. And Applets have failed over the web in time critical applications.
I surfed quited a few .NET related sites (MSDN, gotdotnet etc.) for typical numbers on performance for this kind of page design, but in vain.
Any help is appreciated!!!
Thanks,
Chethan.
