• .NET Development Web Services, Serialization and Interfaces

  Hi, I'm writing a Web Service layer. I would like to use interfaces to pass data in and out, this will allow the server and client to have different implementations and allow for example the DBA to change the database structure and server implementation without the client apps needing to change their implementation, but.... XmlSerializer can't serialize interfaces... I don't want to have the same implementation on server and client, and using interfaces seems to be the "correct" way of doing this. Has anyone encountered a solution to this problem I understand the reasoning behind XmlSerializer not being able to do this, but I can't understand why it shouldn't! Any help would be greatly appreciated... Kev ...Show All

• Visual Basic Sigh - I remember one-based.

  Well, I know this is nothing new, but: What's with this zero-based (nearly) everything For i = 1 to Thingy.Count or For i = 0 to Thingy.Count -1 It is simply not true that the first element of anything in the universe is ZERO. It is not common-sense thinking. "How many items do you have in your hand " "One" "Show me the first item" "Error, you should have asked for the zero-th item" ha ha ha I would like to request that two versions of the .Net Framework be made available. One for those who love zero, and another one for those who love one. 0 Based arrays is a hold over from the days of C (more appropriately B but it was made pop ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista How to create default fault handler for state machine workflow

  Dear all, A few months back, I asked the question: Trevor E Hilder wrote: 1) It is a major irritation that I cannot apparently define a fault handler for the whole state machine workflow (which can be done in a sequential workflow). Is there any way to provide such a global fault handler, which can then be overridden by local ones inside the states Paul Andrew kindly replied: You can create a super state that contains all of the states in your workflow. This superstate can have a fault handler which applies to the whole workflow. I asked him for clarification of how to do this, but he didn't reply and I got involved in other issues. I have just tried to do what he suggested, b ...Show All
