I won’t be able to make it tonight for the dotNET meeting. Damn snow causing traffic jams. And I’m on a tight traveling schedule as it is already. Better luck next time…
I agree with Joel. Just a few days back I was about to write this cool promotion app for distribution on a CD. I was forced to move away from .NET to do some good old Delphi, so my customers don’t need to dl/install this feisty runtime environment.
I’m about to supply a S88.v2 compliant interface against our tracking and tracing system. The idea is that several MES applications should be able to interface and provide production data in a timely manner. Somewhere in the future I’d like to interface the tracking and tracing system with S95.v2 compliant interfaces currently supported by SAP’s R3 ERP system which I’m targeting, this in order to trace accross the value chain. The BatchML and B2MML implementations of the previously mentioned standards are so cool (trust me they are!). I suggest the Enterprise Integrators to follow this link.
Me and Kitty are househunters these days, go figure.
Xen? Extending C#.
New dotNET logo, thanks to Macaw! Macaw is doing “the” cool stuff and hunting for cool people. To bad I'm located on the other side of the Netherlands.
Have you ever felt the need to increase the transaction timeout option for long running business transactions (it defaults to 60 sec)? Increasing the timeout option system wide is generally not a smart thing to do. This because a transaction which under normal circumstances completes his work in a few seconds, now can_run as long as you predefined in Component Services configuration. The ServiceConfig class is the solution to do this programmatically:
if (ContextUtil.IsInTransaction)
{
ServiceConfig config = new ServiceConfig();
config.TransactionTimeout += 1000;
ServiceDomain.Enter(config);
}
Today I received a Bachelor Degree in Computer Science, although it took me over 13 years (career change, the hard way) to get at this point. One step closer…
€150 this January in the Netherlands, 1 day, no freaking way. Developer Days and the Pre-Conference training (2 days) counts for € 225.
I’m in a tux state of mind today, I’m sorry.
So I bought myself two new books, Enterprise Integration Patterns and Big Asian Cookbook I still need to decide which of these books I’ll be skimming through first. In the next couple of months I’ll be working on integration stuff. “Expert knowledge” of messaging solutions would come in handy.
