Slides and Demos from VS/Architect Connections This Week
I gave 4 sessions and repeat recorded a 5th this week at Visual Studio and Architect Connections in Las Vegas. The line up was as follows: Build Workflow 4.0 Service Applications – covered the service messaging capabilities of workflow 4.0. Covered the Receive activity (and coupled SendReply) for exposing service operations from workflows, as well as Send/ReceiveReply (and the code generated activities) for calling services. Also covered the three forms of correlation: Request-Reply, Context (protocol), and Content correlation. Slides Demos Wrap Your Head Around Concurrency in WF 4.0 – Covered all the many forms of concurrency in workflows. Where threads are doing what, how to use the parallel activities and the pseudo-concurrency that you get with that. Also showed how the built-in InvokeMethod executes asychronously, as well as how to build a custom async activity. Slides Demos Connecting Smart Clients Through the .NET Service Bus – Covered basic use of .NET Service Bus to connect a client to back end services and the benefits of doing so. Also spent a good deal of time on event driven scenarios - being able to push things to the client from back end services or for peer-to-peer communications from other clients. Discussed current and future state of affairs for document/data sharing and synchronization. Slides Demos Build Testable Client and Service Applications – Covered practices and patterns for making applications more testable. Discussed benefits and principals of TDD, S.O.L.I.D., IoC, DI, Repository, Separated Presentation, and closed with a number of testability tricks for unit testing. Slides Demos
