Death of the Dumb Client
Bill Sheldon
writes "OK, I was prepping for next week's VS2005 launch event in Anaheim when an odd thought struck me.

WSE3 MTOM
writes "OK, so this week I found out that that there currently is no support the the Jet database provider on the x64 platform. That didn't change the fact that I was determined to do it (or create the illusion of it). I had to create a user-approachable report generator which exported the data into Excel and sent it on to the user all via a web interface. I also didn't want to use the XML version of Excel spreadsheets (it surprises me how many times people think I'm talking about Excel 12 when I say that. You can do XML-based sheets in old Excel versions too!) So I wanted this done via ADO.NET and the Jet provider creating a "real" xls file. Obviously what I wanted to do isn't even work with the framework, but...doing it on x64 is."
Interesting ASMX 2.0 + WSE 3.0 hosting issue
Aaron Skonnard
writes "While building a bunch of ASMX 2.0 + WSE 3.0 demos during my UG presentation last week, I ran into an interesting but annoying issue (especially during a talk). I had built an ASMX 2.0 service interface and a class that implemented the interface. I was demonstrating how once you use the various Web service attributes on an interface, the ASMX runtime will not let you use any Web service attributes on the derived class that impact the service contract. You can, however, use the Web service attributes that control the processing behavior (such as [WebMethod(BufferResponse=true)]) on the derived class. I was showing how all this works and I added a few of these WebMethod behavior properties on my service class.
