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. Just to mention the requirements again though, it must be able to gather and store information from literally any source, and not tied to one collection mechanism... Read More...
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...

Friday, June 20, 2008 9:20 AM
So I *finally* managed to get a videocast/podcast done. Wally has been harassing me for ages, and I eventually had the time to get one done. This one is on the Peer to Peer support in Windows Communication Foundation (WCF) and how easy it is to do. Its remarkably simple yet extremely powerful. I hope you enjoy it.

WCF services getting errors when hosting in IIS
Wednesday, June 04, 2008 11:42 AM
This post is more for my own records than anything and I have been meaning to write this down for some time. Problem: Had a WCF Web Service that was being hosted in IIS. Worked in dev and test fine. Moved to prod and bang, I get the following error: This collection already contains an address with scheme http. There can be at most one address per scheme in this... Read More...

MCTS in WCF
Sunday, April 20, 2008 6:55 PM
So a little while ago, I mentioned that I did a WCF beta exam for a Microsoft Certified Technical Specialist. Its been a long time since I did that and I had kinda forgotten about it, but today I received the good news that I am now a MCTS in WCF! WooHoo! I really thought I had bombed that exam due to the very little prep that I had done, but fortunately that... Read More...

WCF & ASP.NET Role Provider
Friday, February 08, 2008 3:08 PM
So I was talking to Shea Strickland a relatively new starter in readify who is doing some WCF work and asked about the role provider support in WCF. He pointed me to an article by Dominick Baier who mentioned that the RoleProviderPrincipal in WCF will actually cause a database call each time an IsInRole check is performed. After some experimentation, this was... Read More...

WCF - Handling Generic Messages
Saturday, January 19, 2008 5:22 PM
I had a requirement for a client where we were upgrading a web site that had a business web service exposed, and we had to create a new service that was identical in operation to the old (from a consumer perspective). The situation we had though, was somewhat of a reversal on what I normally do (and I suspect what most people do). Typically, I would create a... Read More...

WCF and interoperability
Sunday, December 16, 2007 9:04 PM
I was trying to create an endpoint using WCF that was to look almost identical to an existing endpoint hat was created using some java tools (we were creating a new .Net app and had to mimic some older endpoints).The endpoint seemed ok at first glance according to the WSDL so I generated a client from it using the SVCUTIL.EXE tool and was going to use the interface...
