Silverlight 3 and WCF Faults
Tuesday, July 14, 2009 3:57 PM
On  a previous project that utilised WCF and Silverlight 2, I began implementing an error handling strategy that was going to rely on certain FaultExceptions being propagated to the Silverlight client. Well it turned out that Silverlight 2 does not support FaultExceptions so that was not going to fly and a custom solution was built. Well Silverlight 3 does... Read More...

EOAST - Evolution of a software thingy - Part 2
Monday, August 11, 2008 4:14 PM
In a part 1 of this series , I talked about what was the purpose of coming up with this "software thingy". Now I will tackle some of the design aspects that have evolved as I have been working on it.

EOAST - Evolution of a software thingy - Part 1
Monday, August 04, 2008 4:48 PM
Its been a little while since I have blogged as I haven't had very many value items to add to the blogosphere lately. However, I have been steadily (albeit slowly) working away on a little software project that may or may not see the light of day, but it has been a fun learning experience, and may eventually come to something. If nothing else, its a good testbed... Read More...
