Difference between the "http-remoting" and "remote+http" protocols ?

[Olivier Masseau]

Hello,

I many documentation, when configuring the protocol to use to communicate with the domain-controller, I see "http-remoting".

But in some other documentations I see "remote+http".

Even the xsd lists the two :

    <xs:simpleType name="remote-protocol-type">

        <xs:restriction base="xs:string">

            <xs:enumeration value="remote"/>

            <xs:enumeration value="http-remoting"/>

            <xs:enumeration value="https-remoting"/>

            <xs:enumeration value="remote+http"/>

            <xs:enumeration value="remote+https"/>

        </xs:restriction>

    </xs:simpleType>

I'm a bit confused.

What is the difference between the two and which one should I use ?

I don't see any documentation describing each protocol.

They are both the same, "http-remoting" was an early name we used but it was decided "remote+http" was the correct form.

At some point we could clean up the "http-remoting" and "https-remoting" versions but nothing planned there but I would recommend stick to the form with + in it nowadays.
