ASP.NET and Workflows

A workflow built on Windows Workflow Foundation is a component that requires an ad hoc runtime environment to function. The workflow runtime environment is represented by the WorkflowRuntime class. To host a workflow library, you create and configure an instance of the WorkflowRuntime class to operate on a particular workflow type. For performance reasons, you normally create the runtime environment only once in the application lifetime and make it serve all incoming requests. In a Windows Forms application, you initialize the workflow runtime in the form's constructor and destroy it with the form when the application shuts down. So how does this work if you're using ASP.NET?
Once you have a workflow component up and running, calling it from within a Web app or Windows Forms shouldn't be an issue. As far as Windows Workflow Foundation-based workflows are concerned, ASP.NET developers have only a few small issues to face that are mostly related to the nature of Web applications.

formatdate in sql 2000

I had the situation that I needed to return a date in the right format from my recordset directly (old skool), in the olddays with mssaccess this wasnt a problem. With MSSQL its not that easy. I solved the problem with this nice function

http://www.planet-source-code.com/vb/scripts/ShowCode.asp?txtCodeId=474&lngWId=5

dbo.FormatDate(GETDATE(), ‘MM/DD/YY HH:NN TT’)

And the result …

Writing n-Tier Applications using Windows Forms

There are many examples of ASP.NET applications on the web today, from the Start Kits at http://www.asp.net to the various community efforts like DotNetNuke. The hole that seems to exist is an example of a well designed and architected Windows Forms application. The Tracker application is a Windows Forms reference application that starts to fill that hole. The main purpose of this application is to demonstrate best practices for using Microsoft .NET technologies, such as the Application Blocks for .NET and WS-Security, along with a clean and exciting user interface which can also be Tablet PC enabled. While I was writing the Tracker application, I also wrote a 10 chapter 110 page e-Book that goes into details over the how and why the application was written. The purpose for this article is to give you a high-level overview of the Tracker application, and the information you need to get it running on your machine so you can dig into the code yourself.

Achieving And Recognizing Testable Software Designs – Part I

nice article...

Here’s my current definition of a testable system:

“For each logical part of the system, a unit test can be written relatively easily and quickly that satisfies all the following PC-COF rules at the same time:

Partial runs are possible
Consistent results on every test run
Configuration is unneeded before run
Order of tests does not matter
Fast run time”

Presentations devdays 2006 RAI

Already gathered some presentations from the speakers by mail, but here they all are.. Unfortunaly not the sample codes. Sheets are in English so don't mind the "Netherlands" in the url.

I wrote a report (6 pages) with a quick walkthrough of the sessions I followed, if you would like to receive it, mail me (Dutch article!).

C# GetObject and CreateObject

When interoperating with COM applicaitons, sometimes you need to get the running instance of the application object of the app. In VB you would be doing this by using the GetObject method.

Custom Paging in ASP.NET 2.0 with SQL Server 2005

A common pattern in web development is providing paged access to data. Rather than displaying the entire contents of a report or database table to an end user, developers often show only a subset of records per web page, with controls for moving from page to page. With ASP.NET 1.x, the DataGrid made paging incredibly simple - just set the AllowPaging property to True and add a few lines of code in the PageIndexChanged event handler and you were done! ASP.NET 2.0's GridView makes the process even simpler - just check the Enable Paging option from the GridView's smart tag - no code needed.

The alternative to default paging is custom paging...

DevDays 2006, great

attendentie: about 2498 male and 2 female developers

Great presentations.

Best:
Do's & Dont's Webservices (Bas van Atteveldt)
Atlas (Scot Suthrie)
Practical Enterprice Soa
C# 3.0 & Linq

Worst:
Test early while you develop, old and just a commercial talk.. waste of my lunch time
Dotnetnuke, only cms walkthrough..

Conclusion:

Atlas is almost there, and is great, go live licens within next 30 days.
SOA based architecture is the way to go
All 3 linq flavours are great but can take a while for us developers to get our hands on.
WWF is also great, but same problem as Linq.
