  • The Aspen progress – Silverlight 4, Net 4, WCF RIA Services ref. project

    4 Comments

    It was a while since I wrote a blog post, the reason are many, first preparation for the SDC2010 conference where I talked about WCF RIA Services, then 2 sessions at Microsoft TechDays 2010 where I talked about Web Form vs MVC and building business application with Silverlight 4, MVVM and WCF RIA Services.. and then bought a new car and also have bean on the Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 Ultimate tour and one week vacation in Italy. So a busy time. This blog post will only mention some of the latest updates we have made to the project.

  • Some steps for moving WCF RIA Services Preveiw to the RC version.

    5 Comments

    I moved the Aspen project from the WCF RIA Services VS2010 Preview to the RC version. Maybe some of you will move your Preview version to the RC, so I wrote down some steps..
     
     
    Server Side
     
    You can start with replacing the Web.Config, because I don’t know how your config looks like, I just copy a clean PDC preview config and paste it here and the new one for the RC
     

    Old one:
     
     
    <?xml version="1.0"?>
    <configuration>

        <system.web>
            <httpModules>
                <add name="DomainServiceModule" type="System.Web.Ria.Services.DomainServiceHttpModule, System.Web.Ria, Version=4.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31BF3856AD364E35" />
            </httpModules>
            <compilation debug="true" targetFramework="4.0" />
        </system.web>
        <system.webServer>
            <modules runAllManagedModulesForAllRequests="true">
                <add name="DomainServiceModule" preCondition="managedHandler"
                    type="System.Web.Ria.Services.DomainServiceHttpModule, System.Web.Ria, Version=4.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31BF3856AD364E35" />
            </modules>
            <validation validateIntegratedModeConfiguration="false" />
        </system.webServer>
     
        <system.serviceModel>
            <serviceHostingEnvironment aspNetCompatibilityEnabled="true" />
        </system.serviceModel>
    </configuration>
     
     
    New one:
     
     

    <configuration>
      <configSections>
        <sectionGroup name="system.serviceModel">
          <section name="domainServices" type="System.ServiceModel.DomainServices.Hosting.DomainServicesSection, System.ServiceModel.DomainServices.Hosting, Version=4.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31BF3856AD364E35" allowDefinition="MachineToApplication" requirePermission="false" />
        </sectionGroup>
      </configSections>
     
      <system.web>
        <httpModules>
          <add name="DomainServiceModule" type="System.ServiceModel.DomainServices.Hosting.DomainServiceHttpModule, System.ServiceModel.DomainServices.Hosting, Version=4.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31BF3856AD364E35" />
        </httpModules>
        <compilation debug="true" targetFramework="4.0" />
     
      </system.web>
     
      <system.webServer>
        <validation validateIntegratedModeConfiguration="false"/>
        <modules runAllManagedModulesForAllRequests="true">
          <add name="DomainServiceModule" preCondition="managedHandler"
              type="System.ServiceModel.DomainServices.Hosting.DomainServiceHttpModule, System.ServiceModel.DomainServices.Hosting, Version=4.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31BF3856AD364E35" />
        </modules>
      </system.webServer>
     
      <system.serviceModel>
        <serviceHostingEnvironment aspNetCompatibilityEnabled="true" multipleSiteBindingsEnabled="true" />
      </system.serviceModel>
     
     
    You can see all the changes by comparing both of them. I just made a simple copy and paste of the whole file in the Aspen project.
    On the server-side the following assembly references need to be replaced:
     
    Replace:
    System.Web.DomainServices
     
    To:
    System.ServiceModel.DomainServices.Server
     
    Located in the following folder (depends where your SDK is  installed):
    C:\Program Files\Microsoft SDKs\RIA Services\v1.0\Libraries\Server

    Then replace the System.Web.DomainServices namespace to System.ServiceModel.DomainServices.Server

    Replace the following assembly references:

    System.Web.Ria
    (and System.Web.Ria.Services)

    To:

    System.ServiceModel.DomainServices.Hosting
    System.ServiceModel.DomainServices.Server

    The EnableClientAttribute is located in the Hosting assembly now.

    Then replace the System.Web.Ria namespace to System.ServiceModel.DomainServices.Hosting.

    For the Invoke-, Insert,  IgnoreAttribute etc, replace the System.Web.Ria.Services namespace with System.ServiceModel.DomainServices.Server.
     
     
    Note: I don’t use LinqToEntitesDomainService, but I guess if you do, then you need on the server side add a reference to the assembly:
     
    System.ServiceModel.DomainServices.EntityFramework
     
    The LinqToEntitesDomainService is located in the following namespace: System.ServiceModel.DomainServices.EntityFramework
     
     
     
    Client-Side:
     
    Replace:

    System.Web.Ria

    To:

    System.ServiceModel.DomainServices.Client
    System.ServiceModel.DomainServices.Client.Web

    Located in the folder (depends where your SDK is installed):

    C:\Program Files\Microsoft SDKs\RIA Services\v1.0\Libraries\Silverlight

    Add a reference to the following assembly:

    System.ServiceModel.Web.Extensions

    (This assembly is not in the SDK folder; use the .NET Tab in the Add Ref. dialog)
    Remove the old “Generated_Code” folder and rebuild your solution.
