Two Great news from Silverlight Streaming!

First if you are using Silverlight 2 Beta 1, you will be able to upload your video with pause and resume. Second they finally deliver a HTTP endpoint for videos hosted in Silverlight Streaming.

We will make with Mathieu a great use of those two features soon :-)

MSBuild and Silverlight 2.0 Beta 1 running in Team City

If you want to integrate Silverlight 2.0 Beta 1 in your Continuous Integration system, in my case Team City), it is better to read the readme of Silverlight 2.0 Beta 1 SDK here.

The important part in our case is the following one:

Using MSbuild to build a solution in a command line doesn’t copy the Silverlight project output to the linked web project

We don’t have complete support for command line msbuild usage to build solutions with Silverlight projects which also includes 64 bits MSBuild support.

So basically I made a copy manually from the source of the Silverlight project to the output path of my MSBuild project:

    <!--HACK Fix the missing copy of ClientBin -->

    <!--http://www.microsoft.com/silverlight/resources/readme.aspx?v=2.0&sdk=true -->

    <!--Using MSbuild to build a solution in a command line doesn’t copy the Silverlight project output to the linked web project

        We don’t have complete support for command line msbuild usage to build solutions with Silverlight projects which also includes 64 bits MSBuild support.

    -->

    <Message Condition=" '$(Configuration)|$(Platform)' == 'Staging|AnyCPU' Text="### HACK Silverlight MSBUILD ###" />

    <MakeDir Condition=" '$(Configuration)|$(Platform)' == 'Staging|AnyCPU' " Directories="$(OutputPath)\ClientBin" ContinueOnError="true" />

    <Copy Condition=" '$(Configuration)|$(Platform)' == 'Staging|AnyCPU' " SourceFiles="$(MSBuildProjectDirectory)\..\..\Sources\VideoPlayer\ClientBin\VideoPlayer.xap" DestinationFiles="$(OutputPath)\ClientBin\VideoPlayer.xap" />

    <!--EndHACK -->

Now my web application is compiled, deployed and works!

Bringing Linq to Euss ORM

Euss stand for Evaluant Universal Storage Services, it's a great open source (MIT License) Object-Relational mapping framework.

I use Euss on Tech Head Brothers portal since a long time now.

Four days ago I went to Sébastien Ros, the architect of Euss, with a first draft implementation of IQueryable<T> for Euss. Almost everything was already implemented but it was missing the IQueryable<T>. Today Sébastien came back to me with a first implementation that I could quickly integrate.

As you can see on the following screenshots, made with NDepend, I was then able to remove the dependency on Euss from my Service Layer.

Before with dependency from TechHeadBrothers.Portal.Services to Evaluant.Uss

 

After without dependency from TechHeadBrothers.Portal.Services to Evaluant.Uss

Great new step!
