Really a nice tutorial..! I liked the - "face the problem.. Find it.. Fix it" approach.. I used to teach the same way.. :p Definitely far superior than those "Hello World" samples on RU-vid. We have seen why problems happen and where to look for and how to fix.
Shawkat Osm It was actually more bumpy than I wished it to be, but it was one of my first videos and I didn't spend any time preparing really. Just sort of, went at it, and it turned out okay. :)
DCOM Engineering, LLC Please Stick to not preparing..;) cause this type of 'errors' you bump into and fixing them on the spot and explaining what went wrong is priceless and extreme educative. Better than those happy flow demo's. Thanks for this great tutorial video!!
I look forward to them. Just one thing you might like to enhance them with is pointing out differences between C# and VB if you're familiar with them. For example, the refactoring command (Ctrl+R, R) is not available for VB. I'm still watching, but having a little more of a challenge following along in VB. :P
Hey Bryan. Thanks for the feedback. I currently have a support ticket open with my registrar to resolve my domain problem. The nameservers aren't working properly. I added the code to my skydrive and updated the link in the description.
In fact this is a good tutorial for getting started with WCF. The Test makes no sense. you're testing a mock..Mocks are useful in unit testing scenarios with IOC. You told us, that there has to be a SET-Method for any property of the data contract. I would prefer to place the DataMember-Attribute on the backing fields. You don't have to provide SET-Methods then and there is no problem with deserialising, when somebody placed some logic in a property. All in all, thanks for this WCF Intruduction!
This is a superb tutorial. I think everyone should actually follow it along, step by step, and apart from the WCF concepts you learn so much more...typing the actual code instead of copying/pasting really "sinks things in"... and if you're a hunt-and-peck single finger typist. you chose the wrong career mate !
I love that there are good VS2012 video tutorials out now with fairly neutral (American) accents. A lot of the videos I find are in 2008, 2010, or Indian accents. No offense, but some accents are not always the easiest to decipher at a quick pace. My only issues are that sometimes your mouse movements and clicks are a little too sudden and you would discover errors faster by looking for the red and blue squiggles ;) An early catch would make for a better flowing video Great video, though!
Good video - can you elaborate whats the difference between the WCF Service Library and WCF Service Application? About the console test application you created in the video I did notice one minor thing - you didn't close the client proxy object via the Close command. Other than that good video and looking forward on your other videos related to WCF, etc.
Hi David, thank you for your video, it's realy well done. But i have a question for you, i don't know if you can give me an advice.:) it's my first time to use WSF and i'm actualy working with Sharepoint 2010, and i want to make a wfs until to make my first site's collection data available for the second one. So, should i creat a WSF web service? if yes, do you have some tutorial or an intresting web site where i can get the information? Thank you for your answer and Nice video again.
A very nice tutorial. One question: You move your ConnectionString class (which could be looked at as your Model) to a class library. How will that affect a WPF application, which uses the same model, and also would like to implement the INotifyPropertyChanged interface on it? Again, many thanks for sharing your knowledge.
At about 00:44:00 is where there were two .svc files, but as the video progresses I believe I had merged the two services into a single service, so you should only be getting one .svc file (RoutingService.ConnectionStringService.svc). Basically, RoutingService.StoredConnectionStringService.svc went away.The demo files are the end-product/final of the video.
Thank you for the feedback, I really appreciate it. You can find the link to the blog article and source code in the video description. The source code is in a ZIP file on my blog. Hope that helps. :)
So what would you do after that so that someone from another computer would be able to use the application?What files would you give to the other computer in order to enable it to connect and perform all these "Client" commands?
Yes I did find the code and I compared it against mine. There is no difference. I don't see why publishing the service is not producing 2 .svc like your demo. Any idea?
Very good tutorial! However, when I published my service I ended up with RoutingService.ConnectionStringService.svc only. I did not get the RoutingService.StoredConnectionStringService.svc like you did. Would you know why? Where can I get the source code? Thanks!
Dear David, yous posts are excellent and I really appreciate that but believe me, there is really a loophole in your post. When any content is uploaded in world wide web, it is not necessary that every country and places haves good internet bandwidth. If we want to watch your video, we have to download it in HD format otherwise the texts are not clearly visible. So I request you that for such a good contents please increase the font size of your OS and IDE when you are preparing the the footage.
DCOM Engineering, LLC Excellent Video. Thank you so much. Would help if you can upload the source code, seems like the updated link is broken. Thanks once again.
This is a great video tutorial. However, the source code and slides download link appears broken. I get a message that my browser can't find www_danderson_me. (I changed the dots in the url to underscores so youtube wouldn't complain about a web address in the comment.)
