I am blogging this link again - because we cannot read the information contained in this presentation often enough. XML Schema design best practices, especially targeted at the Web services developer - and therefore at everyone using WSCF. Using XML schemas effectively in WSDL design - A conference presentation from SD West 2004[HTML]  [PDF]

OK, it's about time. There has been a lot of buzz around schema-based contract-first Web services design & developmentlately. Nearly everybody thinks that it is a good thing, and that we finally should reach a state where we all can live and breath it. But most people have been complaining about the lack of tool support for the so called...

I use two batch files extremely often when RDP'ing into my machines (and not just then). One is for completely shutting it down, the other for sending it into standby mode. Both sitting on my Windows desktop. Their contents is actually very simple and straight forward. ShutdownMe.bat:shutdown -s -f -t 1 StandbyMe.bat: rundll32.exe...

It is decided: we will release WSCF 0.4 with a new command line interface to all code generation features - we tested this command line tool in a few real world projects and it seems stable enough to be distributed ;) Version 0.4 also comes with a WSDL Wizard to design and create your Web service's message and interface contract. Of course, the...

Just a side-note: We will move away from the name 'WsContractFirst' to simply use 'WSCF' from now on. Yes, WSCF is pronounced after the same rule WSE (Wizzy) is ;) So it is more like .. Wizzcaff.

A highly demanded feature... eventually this will be included in the next build of thinktecture's WSCF (aka WsContractFirst), thanks to our friend Christoph Schittko. To make clear: it is not yet decided whether this wll be in v0.4 or v0.5.

Rich Salz is a hammer. He dissects and destroys the upcoming new version of WSDL in his latest article on XML.com. To put it simply, these specifications are astoundingly bad. The comment period ended October 4, although looking at the comment list archive shows that comments were still being received, and processed, as recently as last week...
