• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) "remote side security requirement was not fulfilled..."

  I am new to WCF and want to learn about setting up security between server and client. I have read Keith Brown's article in the August MSDN magazine, which explains things clearly but I need more sample code, showing particularly how to configure endpoints, bindings and behaviors to set up message-based and transport-based security via the app.config file. I have come across a couple of blog entries with sample code, but they are from earlier times and the APIs have changed sufficiently that they don't build any more.   I am now using RC1, the latest. (Trying to figure this out from just reading the docs is HARD!) Thanks: based on your suggestion I checked on the way the server machine (VM) was s ...Show All

• Visual C# Setting up IDE to P/Invoke C DLL

  Hello all, I'm very new to the VS2005 IDE (it seems almost everything has been changed from VS6). I'm also new to using P/Invoke to call my C-style Dlls from C#. I've found info on using P/Invoke, but I don't know how to set up my project options so that the environment can see the Dll. Should I just put copies of my .dll/.lib/.h files in the same folder as my .cs source files Are there project settings in the IDE that have to be changed as well If you respond (and I hope you do), please detail exactly the IDE steps (ex: "Project...MyProject Properties...Reference Paths...etc".

  Hi all, What are natural checkpoints, planned checkpoints, and externally facilitated checkpoints I found them in MSF Essentials book, Chapter 3, p.36, which says: "MSF builds in natural checkpoints ... help a team reflect and assess successful and not-so-successful aspects of a project. Planned checkpoints throughout the MSF Governance Model help teams to make midcourse corrections... MSF emphasizes the importance of organizational-level learning from project outcomes by recommending externally facilitated project checkpoints and post-project reviews."

• Software Development for Windows Vista How to pass parameters from one workflow to another?

  I have one workflow (workflow1) defined, and it contains a property isAuthorized. Then I have defined Workflow2 and used the invoke workflow activity to invoke workflow1 in workflow2. When the workflow1, which is a part of workflow2, is completed, I need to read the value of isAuthorized property to determine which activity in workflow2 should be invoked. How can I read that value (isAuthorized) in workflow2 Thanks, Marko Vuksanovic. Marko, the InvokeWorkflowActivity will start workflow1 asynchronously. Passing parameters (via binding) is easy, but retrieving them when you need them is another story; that's why Jon has developed his custom activity & WorkflowRuntime Service. Serge ...Show All
