Web Services are based on open-standard XML/SOAP. Visual Studio .NET automates the translation from the HTTP-based protocol to a class interface by creating a proxy class. As long as your UNIX clients can do HTTP, then they can see the resulting XML from the call and interpret it. I don't have any specifics for UNIX, but it shouldn't be too hard to find information on XML/SOAP calls.

I think .NET will be great for IT departments, consulting firms, service providers, and the likes. From their press releases, I also think that MS develop .NET with these people in mind.
However, I haven't heard their views on .NET for commercial application development.
Personally, I don't think .NET haven't much to offer on this area except improve time-to-market. However, .NET runtime will surely penalize apps runtime performance.
Any views on this one?

The Common Language Runtime offers some great stories around performance (Just-In-Time and pre-compiled apps). As far as commercial applications, it is already being used in some earlier adopters. Crystal Decisions is one of the first out the door with their version of Crystal Reports built on .NET. Expect to see a bunch more out soon now that the Release Candidate is available.
Cheers!

I actually had a lot of trouble with the DVD getting read at all, although I admit I've not used it yet ( still waiting for a book to arrive ). What do you mean by reduced functionality ? It's a beta, so it wouldn't surprise me if some things do not work, but unless you're specific about what you mean, any problems with installing etc., I don't see how anyone can hope to help you.

Sorry for the late reply. There are 2 issues that I can think of that you may be referring to:
1 - RC2 had a bug in the VBScript. There is a download available from the VS.Net webpage on MSDN.
2 - The time-limit built-in. If you do an update from the VS help menu, MS has an SP that fixes that.

Hi everybody,
I tried to install the .net framework on my Windows 2000 Server SP2. But the installation of the Windows installer V 2.0 crashed. I have tried everything to fix this problem with register and unregister of msiexec.exe and regsvr32 msi.dll but nothing helped. I really would like to install the .net framework, but if I not can circumvent this problem with the Windows Installer this will not be possible. Does anybody know why the upgrade of the Windows Installer V1.1 to Version 2.0 can be done correctly ?

Hi people !,
help please !! how can you facilitate Web Service to Windows Forms communication ? (or at the least, what's it called ?)
what i mean is, suppose you invoke a Web Service function that should update a TextBox on separate Windows Forms application . they are both on the same machine.
thanks ! any help would be greatly appreciated !!!!

If you have the Visual Studio .NET Release Candidate (see http://msdn.microsoft.com/vstudio/nextgen/beta.asp), check out the following help topic "Walkthrough: Calling XML Web Services from Windows Forms"

Hi,
Having traditionally written C++ windows applicatons for a number of years, I am looking forward to geting to know the .NET technologies.
While starting to read about what is available the first thing that springs to mind is how are these applications deployed, what OS's support this.
There is a lot of talk about cross-platform compatibilty but does that mean when you are deploying your application on non-.NET compliant systems e.g. I assume win95, win98,ME,non-Microsoft OS's then you install the necessary .NET components?
Could anyone point me in the direction of any articles that addresses this area.
Thanks
Neil

Best place is on MSDN in the Deploying .NET Framework Applications*.
If you have high level questions about .NET then msdn.microsoft.com/net* is the place to start.
About the cross-platform compatibility; the platform you want to deploy to will have to have a .NET framework written for it. The MONO project is doing this for Linux so that you can run .NET apps on Linux. I am unsure though about other versions of Windows or other OSs.
Hope that helps

The .NET Framework will be available for Windows 95 through XP. Some installation packages such as InstallShield Developer and Wise Installer allow you to package a "merge module" for the .NET Framework, thus ensuring that it is installed on the target machine if it is not already there.
MSDN is a great resource and all of the technical content is available free at http://msdn.microsoft.com

Hi,
If anybody has worked on returning NameValueCollection from webservice, I hope you might have come accross this typical error message.
You must implement the Add(System.String) method on
System.Collections.Specialized.NameValueCollection because it inherits from
ICollection.
Please let me know if anybody has a solution

I've played around with the Soap Toolkit a bit and i'd like to take a look at the .Net soap stuff but I can't seem to find any C++ SOAP examples for .Net.
What I need to do is build a C++/MFC windows app that can talk SOAP. Not only does it need to understand soap but it needs to be able to handles complex types from a SOAP service writen in Java. The Java side serializes a java class and I need to be able to deserialize it.
any pointers or examples? I can find nothing on the ms site.
thanks

i try to use gdi+ in my atl dll project. but it was failed when i try to exit my process because the gdiplusshutdown fuction is failed. what can i do?
|
|
|
|
|
We had this problem on a machine that we'd not installed the full platform SDK on using MFC, and we found that just failing to shut it down still worked OK. GDI+ is a COM object itself, so I see no reason why you should have trouble running it in ATL.

i really have not installed the full platform SDK. but i can use gdi+ normally when i useing MFC. but it is really failed when i called the function gdiplusshutdown in my ATL DLL project. maybe i need installed the full platform SDK? i will try

If you're following Christian's article, there's a little mistake that causes LNK2001 on GdiPlusShutdown. Change your ULONG_PTR typedef to
typedef ULONG_PTR ULONG;

I am in the design phase of a new product. Do I use good old MFC or use it as a good opportunity to get to know C# under .net ? The problem is two fold. First of all , this code must work with 95 . And secondly it will have a service / minimised app part and gui part. So , what platforms are .net going to run on ?Is it practical to use it to write services , if not then how small a footprint in memory is the runtime if I have to use a minimised app instead ?
|

I believe that only 98 and ME and NT/2000/XP are going to be supported with .NET. Microsoft is trying to slowly phase out 95 support. Most Win95 systems don't tend to have the kind of machine that .NET is going to need.
My .NET Visual Studio Beta 2 allows me to build a Windows service in C#, I haven't played with it much but it seems to be useable.
Whether you choose C# or MFC is a difficult choice. When do you need your app to be finished by? If it is sometime this year, I'd forget C#. I doubt that Visual Studio .NET will be ready before the end of the year and trying to develop a full product with a BETA product makes life so much harder.
At the moment I'm sticking with the good old MFC/WTL/ATL technologies. I'm itching to start writing C# but my customers aren't likely to be using .NET in the near future.
