  Hello. I have a question regarding WS*. There are at least 9 pre-bindings prepared in WCF and there's custom binding.

How can I specify I'm using WS-Addressing, or how can I tell if I'm using WS-Addressing or not. Others stuff I would like to do include WS-ReliableMessaging, how can I specify that I'm using WS* thing I think this has to do more with the knowledge of WS" specs but I didn't have anywhere else to ask for help. If anyone can help me out on this matter, that would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. Thanks for your reply. That r ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista Is there automatic reloading and executing when recovering from a crash?

  Hi This may be a stupid question but I really need to know what to do in this case. I'm developing a state machine workflow, I have an EventDrivenActivity with a TransactionScopeAcitivty in which I have activities to save to my data model. If something goes horribly wrong after the persistence point on the close of the TransactionScopeActivity before the persistence on idle (I have this set).

Or... am I going to need to somehow check for this situation and load the workflow instance to have it continue exection Any help wo ...Show All

• .NET Development What can I append to the end of an expression...?

  I am currently working on a problem and need a way to work around an issue in the Regex object in .net. The basic issue is that if the parsing expression contains this: … " price="( <price>.* )"net="( <net>.* )" … But the text being parsed looks like this: … " price="44.54" net="0.26" volume="592100" … (These are just snippets, the expression and the text are both a lot bigger) The Regex.Matches(strStringToParse) continues to try to find the "net=" pattern so it knows when to stop for the data in the price group… it continues to look on beyond the end of the string… the end of the file… and on into the system. ...Show All

Can someone tell me how to see to it that those files are included in the msi. file when I build the application Thanks. ...Show All
