[ROOT] TSocket, TMessage, and "Error in <TClass::Load>"

Hello,

I have a program which utilizes TSocket's and  TMessage's  to send  
Event objects to other processes.   In one program, I have it receiving
Events from a source and then sending them to clients.  This works fine if  
this program calls Event->Print(); but  if not it gives the error:
	Error in <TClass::Load>: dictionary of class Event not found 

So some how the dictionary is not getting initialized.  A kludge that I now use is
to instantiate a Event that never gets used:

TROOT eServer("eServer","Test Event Server");    
int main(int argc, char **argv)
{ 

  char *argptr;
  Event dummy;
   ....
	sock->Recv(mess);// this was the line that errors
	Event *event=NULL;
	event = (Event *)mess->ReadObject(mess->GetClass());

I am guessing that there is a better or proper way of fixing this. Any insight
would be appreciated. Thanks.
