Blog Article On a recent project we had the requirement to produce a web application as part of the main deliverable, but also to provide a services layer or implementation, that will allow external clients within the same organization to interact with the underlying system.

Well its finally ready for some public consumption. You can grab the code here . ( http://www.theglavs.com/DownloadItem.aspx?FileID=55 ) You can grab the download from here. Its very "apha" at this point and my testing... Read More...

In WSE land, this was common place: MyProxy prox = new MyProxy(); prox.CallServiceMethod(); For example, you might have a class with some instance methods, and in each method, instantiate a proxy, call the service method, life...

Saturday, February 24, 2007 8:51 PM

Recently, I had been asked to examine a situation where WSE V3 service calls were substantially quicker than the equivalent WCF version. The reason in this instance was the fact that the WCF proxy was being created for each and every service call made (which was also the case with WSE V3).
