Demis talks about his thinking behind ServiceStack, its support for a diverse set of protocols and how it compares to WCF and WebAPI. The conversation http://www.developerfusion.com/media/149390/demis-bellot-on-servicestack/ http://www.developerfusion.com/media/149390/demis-bellot-on-servicestack/ Tue, 05 Feb 2013 07:00:00 GMT James Crowley Carl and Richard talk to Brian Noyes about the Single Page Application (SPA) feature coming in MVC 4. Brian talks about the similarities of the design patterns for SPA to the more classical Silverlight or WPF application with RIA or WCF services on the back end. While hardly new to the web space http://www.developerfusion.com/media/144674/brian-noyes-builds-single-page-applications/ http://www.developerfusion.com/media/144674/brian-noyes-builds-single-page-applications/ Mon, 16 Jul 2012 10:53:00 GMT James Crowley Demis Bellot has put together an open source .NET and Mono REST Web Services framework called Service Stack. It's effectively a WCF replacement for some kinds of webservices. There's no XML and no code-generation. Why do frameworks like this exist and what kinds of things did Demis take into cons. http://www.developerfusion.com/media/144607/framework-series-service-stack-with-demis-bellot/ http://www.developerfusion.com/media/144607/framework-series-service-stack-with-demis-bellot/ Mon, 16 Jul 2012 10:52:00 GMT James Crowley This episode of Herding Code the guys talk REST with Glenn Block (who’s driving the WCF Web APIs), Darrel Miller (a REST expert with a lot of real world production experience), and John Sheehan (author of RestSharp) about what REST really is and what practical value it really offers in real world. http://www.developerfusion.com/media/120963/herding-code-115-restravaganza-with-darrel-miller-glenn-block-and-john-sheehan/ http://www.developerfusion.com/media/120963/herding-code-115-restravaganza-with-darrel-miller-glenn-block-and-john-sheehan/ Wed, 22 Jun 2011 01:35:00 GMT James Crowley Richard caught up with Glenn Block at Mix 2011 to find out what he's been working on since the MEF days. After a quick tour down memory lane about MEF and Brad Abrams, Glenn discusses WCF Web APIs. The Web APIs focus WCF onto pure HTTP, making it easier to build RESTful applications while not req. http://www.developerfusion.com/media/119169/glenn-block-simplifies-wcf-with-webapi/ http://www.developerfusion.com/media/119169/glenn-block-simplifies-wcf-with-webapi/ Tue, 10 May 2011 13:33:00 GMT James Crowley Glenn Block is with Scott in The Netherlands and tries to get Scott up to speed on what's new in WCF. Scott thinks WCF is scary and heavyweight. How does WCF fit into a world of Web 2.0 lightweight APIs? What's the WCF WebAPI and how does compare to services in ASP.NET MVC? http://www.developerfusion.com/media/118675/this-is-not-your-fathers-wcf-all-about-the-webapi-with-glenn-block/ http://www.developerfusion.com/media/118675/this-is-not-your-fathers-wcf-all-about-the-webapi-with-glenn-block/ Fri, 29 Apr 2011 17:15:00 GMT James Crowley With all the emphasis on HTML 5 and devices more and more people are thinking of creating services with the HTTP stack.  Though WCF has had support for this since .NET 3.5 the WCF team has been working hard on the new WCF Web API stack with awesome support for just about anything you would ever w. http://www.developerfusion.com/media/118517/endpointtv-wcf-web-api-with-glenn-block/ http://www.developerfusion.com/media/118517/endpointtv-wcf-web-api-with-glenn-block/ Wed, 27 Apr 2011 15:10:00 GMT James Crowley Are you sometimes annoyed by Windows Workflow Foundation (WF4) or Windows Communication Foundation (WCF)?  Sure you are.  All of use are sometimes annoyed by these products - including those of us who work on the team.  We know there are things we could do to make the products better but what we http://www.developerfusion.com/media/118079/endpointtv-find-your-voice-and-make-wfwcf-better/ http://www.developerfusion.com/media/118079/endpointtv-find-your-voice-and-make-wfwcf-better/ Mon, 18 Apr 2011 16:50:00 GMT James Crowley Listen here! [41:15] Gareth Jones has chops. Tech chops, that is. He’s been around the .NET community making tools for developers for several years and one of those tools happens to be T4. That’s right, that T4, the Text Template Transformation Toolkit. More of us are stumbling across T4 lately http://www.developerfusion.com/media/118125/pluralcast-39-t4-with-gareth-jones/ http://www.developerfusion.com/media/118125/pluralcast-39-t4-with-gareth-jones/ Mon, 18 Apr 2011 16:52:00 GMT James Crowley You've been asking for it and here it is.  I've put together some sample code showing how you can use WF4 with ASP.NET and do it the right way... the fast way with async calls.For more info see this blog postRon Jacobshttp://blogs.msdn.com/rjacobsTwitter: @ronljacobs http://twitte. http://www.developerfusion.com/media/118085/endpointtv-aspnet-wf4-wcf-and-async-calls/ http://www.developerfusion.com/media/118085/endpointtv-aspnet-wf4-wcf-and-async-calls/ Mon, 18 Apr 2011 16:50:00 GMT James Crowley The other day, I walked by the office where our team members from Shanghai work while in Redmond and I ran into Leo Shum, a test lead on the new WCF Web HTTP (REST) Test Tool. On this episode, Leo joins me in the studio to show you how this new tool works.

With it you can significantly speed up that first call to your WCF service and you can also do service initialization if you know how to do it.  Recently a friend asked me how to add service initialization and it took me most of th. http://www.developerfusion.com/media/92051/endpointtv-wcf-and-appfabric-autostart/ http://www.developerfusion.com/media/92051/endpointtv-wcf-and-appfabric-autostart/ Fri, 10 Dec 2010 17:11:00 GMT James Crowley This ought to be easy... unfortunately it is not as easy as it should be.  In this episode I'll show you how you can consume a WCF service from WF4 by using a trick that I learned way back in the eary days of WF4.  Honestly I had forgotten all about this until earlier today when I saw a forum pos. http://www.developerfusion.com/media/92030/endpointtv-how-to-consume-a-wcf-service-with-wf4/ http://www.developerfusion.com/media/92030/endpointtv-how-to-consume-a-wcf-service-with-wf4/ Wed, 08 Dec 2010 21:09:00 GMT James Crowley
