Together With WCF RIA Services Or WCF Data Services
Jul 12, 2010
Makes it sense to use ASP.NET applications together with WCF RIA Services or WCF Data Services (to encapsulate the data access layer) ? Or are these technolgies only useful for Silverlight applications.
How to Find All the Web Services and Windows Services Running on a Server in ASP.Net. I have the server details with me and want to find all the Web services running on it.
I am using Visual Studio 2010 Release candidate1. I have to deploy my web application which consists of a website, certain window services, certain WCF services and Sql Server 2005 database.I read Vishal Joshi's blog(http://vishaljoshi.blogspot.com/2009/09/overview-post-for-web-deployment-in-vs.html) detaing Web Package in VS2010. I want to know how to deploy window services and WCF services using Web Package. Also, I want to create a web setup (.msi) for deployment instead of Web Package so that the .msi takes care of all the application and database deployment like the web package does.
I am using HTML controls while using Ajax in my .net project. Now I want to make my text box to be autocomplete. I am fetching a data using a query for the respective typed text but i am not sure how to bind that data to text box and show it the way it is being displayed in google and other famous sites. I would also love to know the way using web services. Which way is more efficient?
Makes it sense to use ASP.NET togehter with WCF RIA Services or WCF Data Services ? Or are these technologies/frameworks only proper for Silverlight primarily ?
Am using two web application and one web service. My doubt is, am sending the dataset from my first application to Web service. After sending the dataset to my web service, i like to fetch the dataset using second application from the web service. How shall i fetch the dataset by using second application.
Note:
1) sending the dataset from first application to web service. 2) web service receives the dataset from the first application. 3) second application want to fetch the dataset from the web service which was sent by first application.
Actaully i developed an Asp.net website which has a PDA app part. The case is that employees from company come in the morning and get data in their PDA's and they work on them the whole day and in Evening they again come to office or from any web access they update the data on server. We did this through Web services because web services are remote methods so they could access that by only web access..
Now the problem is Concurrency that while syncing through web servies how to control Concurrency however their could be many employee who try to update data at a time.In web servies we receive DataTable from PDA application and do update or insert operations through LINQ with Sql Server.
I have a .net app consuming a java web service. I added the web reference in visual studio to the proper wsdl, it created the proper proxy class and I can call the web service without any problems but looking at the result that is returned, it is always nothing. I can see, by using Fiddler, that the response is returning what it should. If there is a response, why is the return object never being populated and no errors are thrown?
I'm working on a site where we want to include a pie chart on a page. Right now I'm working on implementing that through Reporting Services (RDLC file) with an object data source.The SelectMethod of my object data source is a method that returns a list of business objects; lets say a List<Alpha> and Alpha has a sub object Beta with a Name property. In my report definition I have set the Category groups to be: =Fields!Beta.Value.Name this means that Alpha.Beta.Name are my pie slices. I got the following error:
An error has occurred during report processing. The Group expression for the rouping 'chart1_CategoryGroup1' contains an error: Object variable or With block variable not set.I was able to confirm this is because Beta is nullable and was able to fix the issue by updating the object Alpha to return a new Beta() if the Beta property is null. This solution is not ideal though because there are other places in my code where I need Beta to be null if it doesn't have a value yet.Is there a way to update the report definition to accept a null property as valid? Ideally I would like to specify the value as "Not Set" if Beta is null.
I'm getting started with Astoria/ADO.NET Data Services/WCF Data Services. Looking through a lot of the code samples out there, it appears that the MimeType attribute used to be a method level attribute. After installing the latest update, it is now a class level attribute.
If I have more than one Service Operation that I want to return as a certain MimeType, then it appears now that I have to create a new service for each operation. Is this correct?
Most examples are like this:
[WebGet] [SingleResult] [MimeType("application/pdf")] public IQueryable<byte[]> FooPDF() { var result = from p in this.CurrentDataSource.MyPDFs where p.FooID == 2 select p; return result.Take(1).Select(p => p.PDF); }
I get "Attribute 'MimeType' is not valid on this declaration type. It is only valid on 'class' declarations." when I compile, because now I can't do this.
Now, I have to do this:
[MimeType("FooPDF", "application/pdf")] public class FooService : DataService<FooDBEntities> { public static void InitializeService(DataServiceConfiguration config) { config.SetServiceOperationAccessRule("FooPDF", ServiceOperationRights.All); } [WebGet] [SingleResult] public IQueryable<byte[]> FooPDF() { var result = from p in this.CurrentDataSource.MyPDFs where p.FooID == 2 select p; return result.Take(1).Select(p => p.PDF); } }
What's worse is that I can't add duplicate MimeType attributes to my class.
I need to dynamically add/remove dimensions and facts in web application and get results from SSAS. The cube in SSAS is defined and ready to use. So far the best idea I found is use MDX queries to get metadata from SSAS cube and display those data in web page. Then user can choose needed dimensions/facts and I need to costruct dynamic MDX query and get results from SSAS. Communication with SSAS is made with AdomdDataReader. Is there better options to solve this task that require less effor? Maybe somehow make use of Reporting Services (SSRS).
I'm struggling with trying to use RIA services from an ASP.NET web site.I created a new web site, added an entity framework model, then added a RIA service that uses that model. I used the DomainDataSource control to bind the ASP.NET controls to the RIA service
Are there scenarios where it makes sense to encapsulate a data access layer (of a ASP.NET webapplication) with WCF or WCF Data Services ? Makes it sense to use a service inside the application ?
I want to display values aligned with a header grid. An employee might start from 7:00 a.m. to 9:00 a.m. for their first break. I am trying to display the values 7:00 and 9:00 aligned with the header.
1/ I have an ASP.NET MVC application running on my server, it uses Windows Authentication.
2/ There is different web application (written in Java) somewhere else that also uses Windows Authentication.
In the Controller of my MVC application I need to grab some information from this other Web app. How can I connect to the "foreign" application using the credentials of the user that is accessing my Controller?
am involved in a project with UI comprising mainly of Action Script. My role as an ASP.NET programmer is to pull data from DB using Web Services and supply it as XML to the Action Script.if I could learn more about XML Web Services in ASP.NET.
I am facing the situation in which i have to expose a dll (managed) through web services. Basically make everything from dll accessible to other applications through web services. The dll is a third party and i cannot give any other info on it , but my problem would not depend on this details.
I am looking for the latest best practices (latest tech) approach on how to start this. One thing i have been documented over was Web Service Software Factory, but i do not know how good would this approach be for my situation, and i would welcome some ideas based on experience ofc. The top things i liked and need in my project about the WS Factory were : SOAP faults handling , Entity Translator , Versioning (covering both forward and backward compatibility).
