What is an application domain?
Rating:
An application domain is automatically created by the Common Language Runtime (CLR). The CLR allows multiple .NET applications to be run in a single process by loading them into separate application domains. Objects can only be moved between application domains by the use of remoting.
Following are the advantages of an application domain:
- Faults in one application do not affect other applications.
- Individual applications can be stopped without stopping the entire process.
- The behavior of code is scoped by the application in which it runs.
- Application domains provide isolation between multiple applications running on a single process.
