WS-RM Policy: sounds good

I sort of missed it when I first spotted that something moved in the WS-RM msdn home.Meet Web Services Reliable Messaging Policy Assertions, or WS-RM Policy: a pretty neat spinoff of the main WS-RM spec, where all the policy elements which survived up to the third revision are gathered.Oversummarizing everything boils down to…

Goldrake è Transazionale

Italian post. It would not make sense for somebody who’s not Italian and above thirty… Stasera, durante il viaggio di ritorno in treno, discorrevo amabilmente con alcuni clienti di serie televisive del passato e annedoti correlati. La mia famiglia è molto numerosa, quindi lo scheduling del televisore non poteva che essere prehempive: essere il…

Hi everybody!At the address http://workspaces.gotdotnet.com/wingimcana you can find a small toy I wrote in order to play with one of the coolest but least mentioned M200 features, the Accelerometer. Winform is pretty far from my daily bread (web services), but I have to say that GDI+ is very powerful and well documented! And, of…

WSETrace Here

As everybody knows, Simon produced a really useful wse trace viewer: however, I was never able to use it as quckly as I’d like (when you open it you have to navigate to your project via folder dialog, instead of pasting the path: and I have the tendency of building pretty deep folder hierarchies)….

Don’t miss it!

PolicyExecutionStage, or the seasons of a ws-policy assertion

PolicyExecutionStage, or the seasons of a ws-policy assertion

Today I discovered that apparently the Microsoft.Web.Services2.Policy.PolicyExecutionStage type lives behind some sort of event horizon: no mention of it on the net (nor the use-net), if you exclude the usual msnd entry. Yet it’s a very useful compass while you implement custom policy assertions, so I’m going to tell you what it is…

If Huygens, Spirit & Opportunity went through all the troubles to have one…

…then having a moblog must be really something!So I decided I want one, too. But I’m ignorant about the current offering & lazy at the same time, so I’ll wait for a suggestion or for a more proactive mood. What I know for certain is that I’d love the chance of uploading stuff…
