VB CSHARP

VB.Net and C# again

Jeremy was complaining recently about being given a hard time for not being sufficiently supportive of VB.Net developers in relation to his Structure Map OSS project. As I mentioned in the comments to the post, when .Net first appeared on the scene I believed that VB.Net should be specialized for learning, prototyping and writing quick throw […]

Remote desktop

Opportunistic locking and remote desktop

Here’s a little word of warning to others who may spend some of their time in the IT trenches.  If someone asks you to change the Windows Opportunistic Locking settings, as per this knowledge base article.  Be warned, it may break your ability to remote desktop to the server.  It did for me.  Of course, changing the […]

MGrammar

My first MGrammar

To say that I am fascinated by the Oslo project is a bit of an understatement.  I think the mGraph and mSchema capabilities are very interesting and my subconscious mind is working overtime to try and figure out how it fits into my database design, deployment and upgrade scenarios.  The Oslo repository is a major […]

API DOCUMENT

How to write a document describing a REST Api

Roy Fielding wrote this post recently on the proliferation of APIs that claim to be REST but are breaking some of the fundamental constraints of a REST style architecture. I was most struck by what Roy seems to be saying is required to document a REST Api. That is it.  If you look at most API specs […]

Identi.ca

Witty for Identi.ca. Only the brave need apply.

If you have a Windows machine with VS2008, .Net 3.5, svn and patch on it, you can get the source for Witty here [1] and a patch [2] that will make it run against Identi.ca Enjoy! [1] https://code.google.com/archive/p/wittytwitter/ [2] http://code.google.com/p/wittytwitter/issues/detail?id=147

Identi.ca

Witty can talk to Identi.ca

Witty connected to Identi.ca Due to the nice decoupling of the service API and the user interface in the project Witty it was relatively easy to create a basic service API for Identi.ca. There is still a lot of stuff to get working but at least the basic read and write are functioning. I am hoping […]

HTTP Secure

Security and Http

I did some experimentation today with authentication over http. Using the System.Net.WebClient class I made requests against both a HttpListener based server and WCF service contract using webHttpBinding. With HttpListener I can get Basic authentication and WindowsIntegratedAuthentication working just fine.  With WebHttpBinding I cannot get either.  I am aware that with WebHttpBinding over https you […]

Twitter

Programming Twitter without WCF 3.5

Via Twitter I came across A post showing how easy it is to interface with Twitter using WCF 3.5.  Dariusz hypothesizes that it would be cool to do and proceeds to show how to implement TwitterStatusProxy. All very cool with bindings, channel factories, service contracts and operation contracts. The only problem I see  is that […]
