Abstract

Notifications from shared resources can be directed to appropriate clients. Listener registrations for clients can be matched to sender registrations for shared resources to forward notifications from the shared resources to the appropriate clients. In a terminal server or fast-user switch environment, listener registrations can specify that the listener is interested in notifications associated with the session. Notifications for processing associated with local or remote sessions can be routed to the session initiating the processing. The request for processing notifications can be initiated from the same or different machine. Notifications for a user name or security context can be indicated as desired. Bi-directional communication can be supported. The notification can be used to generate a user interface presentation.
