Re: Transfering Objects & Source From between Systems

WDSCi and RDi should be "smart enough" to know, based on object type,
when it must create a temporary save file, save the object into this
temporary save file, send the save file to the target system, receive
the save file on the target system, and restore the object from the
temporary save file, and then delete the temporary save file, when you
"drag and drop" an object you want to copy from one system to another.

That's a LOT of work for RDI to do with no clear way of transferring the object. Using RDI as the transfer mechanism is not especially efficient. A save file could be massive, depending on the object.

Source file transfers are pretty straight forward.
