Re: WCF Test Client – Extended!

Hi,
would be nice if you can update your example for Visual Studio 2010 and .NET 4.0. I'can get it to work :/

Thank you for posting your code online. This saved me from having to dig through MSDN documentation to work on accomplishing the same task.

Nice article! I specially like the .NET Reflector and Reverse Engineering part! :P

I want to share with you another way of testing wcf services, which, I think is a lot easier than hacking wcftestclient!! :)

Using that idea, you can create unit tests, launch them in batch, even, without no coding at all!

Here's the approach, hope yoyu like it:

Hi Lars,

Nice blog! Is there an email address I can contact you in private?

So the next step is (or does anybody know what will happen): If you use XP & Win7 feature "mklink [[/D] | [/H] | [/J]] link target" as the link in Dropbox? So the "real" file is located on the HD, but the soft link is on dropbox. If you are at home and update a file that is soft link, does it destroy the soft link or does the file get copied to the real location on the hard drive.

Not odd at all - I was simply unaware of it. Think I'll stick with the Dropbox variant for a while, now it's set up.

Oddly enough I used an extension to accomplish the same thing: ExtensionSync

I am sure that it is doing the same thing or something similar.

Good job Lars! I hope more of this kind of cloud enablement can be built into VS v.Next.

They're planning to allow Task-based async server implementations in WCF vNext: http://blogs.msdn.com/b/endpoi...

Thanks, I am in need of this type migration and this sure will be a good start.

Couldn't agree more... but I have to do both so - it's easier to have 1 impl that works on both than 2 impls (one for desktop, one for web) - I'm just grouchy :)

Better than what? yes, it would be nice if System.Threading.Tasks were available in Silverlight too, but the lack of the functionality doesn't make it any less useful in .NET 4.0...

It would be even better if Task<> was available in Silverlight...

Hi Lars,

I have a question about WebClient.UploadString. When I Serialize the class and pass it as a string to a WCF service, it returns a bad request. When I serialize the object, it works when I just use a string.

Thanks!

Thomas

windump — Wed, 28 Jul 2010 14:39:23 -0000

in your opinion - would it be improper to declare a unique "role" for every single operation you want to restrict. This way the administrator has full granular control over the individuals and groups. Thoughts? Is there a better way - I like the AzMan concept where Operations are grouped into tasks and tasks assigned to roles, but I see no reason why this is any different from what I describe above, it just changes the names of the level of indirection - thanks - appreciate the Post!
