Create a WCF-service with one method
- String SubmitAndGetXaml(string commandParameter)
  - The method loads a Xaml file with the name that is specified by commandParameter from disk

Create a WPF-Application with a main window
- The main window contains a ContentControl-control

Add a reference to the WCF-service
In the constructor call the SubmitAndGetXaml with a parameter that points to a Xaml-file in the WCF-service
Use XamlReader.Parse to parse the return value of the SubmitAndGetXaml-method
Assign the result of the XamlReader.Parse-method to the content-property of the ContentControl of the main window

To allow interaction within your dynamic loaded Xamls,…

Implement a generic button-handler with in the code-behind of the main window
Add "ButtonBase.Click='button_OnSubmit'" (where "button_OnSubmit" is the name of the generic button-handler) to the main window grid
Test if current button name is "Submit"
- If the condition is true, call the SubmitAndGetXaml and use as parameter the CommandParameter-property of the button-object

Note: This has to be done for each type of control that needs some code-behind action.

Walkthrough: Consume an ASP.NET WebService with BizTalk WCF Adapter, Wed, 26 May 2010 21:30:34 GMT

Download as PDF.

Preparation

Create a ASP.NET Webservice with the following interface

[WebMethod]

public BusinessObject GetBusinessObject(long id)

{

BusinessObject bo = new BusinessObject() { name = "test", credit = 10 };

return bo;

}

[WebMethod]

public string Echo(string val)

{

return val;

}

With BusinessObject is

public class BusinessObject

{

public string name;

public int credit;

}

Deploy the ASP.NET Webservice to the IIS

http://localhost/ConsumeWebserviceSolution/MyService.asmx

Test the webservice with a browser

Test Echo and GetBusinessObject

Visual Studio Tasks

Create an Empty BizTalk Project (ConsumeWebService.Schemas)

Right-click on the project and choose "Add Generated Items..."

Choose "Consume WCF Service"

The BizTalk WCF Service Consuming Wizard starts

Paste in the URL with "?WSDL"

Now the project should look like the following

Interesting is the schema "Service1_tempuri_org.xsd". It contains the schema for the request and response of the two webmethods of our webservice

BizTalk Administrator Tasks

For testing purpose we create a BizTalk Application called "ConsumeWebserviceApplication"

Create a Receive Port within the application

Create a Receive Location for the Receive Port

Import the Binding for the WebService

Now you should have two more Send Ports

Open the properties of "WcfSendPort_Service1_Service1Soap" and go to its Filters. Set the Filter to our Receive Port name "RcvPort"

Change the SOAP Action Header of the Send Port "WcfSendPort_Service1_Service1Soap"

It is possible to define a BtsActionMapping or a static action. Here for simplicity we configure a static action "http://tempuri.org/GetBusinessObject"

A BtsActionMapping can be defined in relation to a Context Property (see http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb743856%28BTS.20%29.aspx)

Create another new Send Port "SndPort/FILE"

Set its Filters as following

Testing

Create a Instance of the schema "Service1_tempuri_org.xsd" for the method "GetBusinessObject"

<ns0:GetBusinessObject xmlns:ns0="http://tempuri.org/">

<ns0:id>10</ns0:id>

</ns0:GetBusinessObject>

Start the BizTalk Application "ConsumeWebserviceApplication"
Copy it to the folder, that is observed by the Receive Location "RcvLoc/FILE"
As a result you should get a output file in the output path to which the Send Port "SndPort/FILE" is configured. The xml is the result of the web service method call to GetBusinessObject

Walkthrough: SQL Debatching in BizTalk (with WCF-SQL), Wed, 26 May 2010 21:23:21 GMT

Download as PDF

Tasks in SQL Management Studio

Create a database "DebatchingSampleDb"
Create a new table "tblData" in "DebatchingSampleDb"
Create a new stored procedure "SpCountData" in "DebatchingSampleDb"
Create a new stored procedure "SpGetData" in "DebatchingSampleDb"

Tasks in Visual Studio

Create a Visual Studio Project for later created schemas
- Make it strong named!
"Add Generated Items" to the project
- Either "Add Adapter Metadata" or "ConsumeAdapterService"
"Configure URI" in the dialog "Consume Adapter Service"

Go to the "URI Properties"
- - Fill the "Server" (of the database), the "InitialCatalog" (the name of the database) and an unique "InboundId" (can be anything!)
Go to the "Binding Properties"
- - InboundOpertationType = "TypedPolling"
  - PollingDataAvailableData = "EXEC SpCountData"
  - PollingStatement = "EXEC SpGetData"
Accept your changes with "OK"

Press "Connect" in the dialog "Consume Adapter Service"
- 1. "Select Contract Type" to "Service (inbound operations)"
  2. Press "Select a category"
  3. Choose "TypedPolling"
  4. Press "Add"
  5. Filename Prefix = "DebatchingSample"
  6. Press "OK"
As a result you should have a Visual Studio Project that looks like the following

Delete the "BizTalk Orchestration.odx"

Tasks in BizTalk Administration Console

Create a new BizTalk Application "DebatchSampleApplication"
Create a new Receive Port "RcvPort/DebatchingSample"
Create a Receive Location "RcvLoc/DebatchingSample/SQL" under the Receive Port "RcvPort/DebatchingSample"

- Select Type = "WCF-Custom"
- Select Receive Pipeline "XmlReceive"
Press "Configure" the WCF-Custom

Configure "General"
- Adress (URI) = "mssql://WIN-NQDUPNWZVQ4//DebatchingSampleDb?InboundId=DebatchingSampleDb
  - Note: WIN-NQDUPNWZVQ4 is the servername of the db!
  - Note: Important is that the value of the InboundId matches with the value we specified in the "Consume Adapter Service" dialog!
Configure Binding
- Select "sqlBinding"
- InboundOpertationType = "TypedPolling"
- PollingDataAvailableData = "EXEC SpCountData"
- PollingStatement = "EXEC SpGetData"
Apply the changes with "OK"

Apply the Receive Location settings with "OK"

Create a Static One-way Send Port "SndPort/DebatchingSample"
- Configure "General" of the Send Port as "FILE" with a "PassThruTransmit"
- Configure the "Filters"
  - - Bts.ReceivePort == RcvPort/DebatchingSample

Tasks in Visual Studio

Configure "Deployment" of the project "DebatchingSamle.Schemas" to deploy to the "DebatchingSampleApplication"
Deploy the project

Testing the solution

Insert two rows into the DebatchingSampleDb.tblData

Start the BizTalk Application "DebatchingSampleApplication"

Result: There should be one file in the output folder

Tasks in Visual Studio (Changes for debatching!)

Set "Envelope" to "yes" in the schema "DebatchingSample_DebatchingSampleDb.xsd"
Set the body-node
Set ist child node to "Max occurs = 1"

Redeploy the schema!

ReTesting the solution

Insert two rows into the DebatchingSampleDb.tblData
Start the BizTalk Application "DebatchingSampleApplication"

Result: There should be two files in the output folder

Disabling Itinerary Encryption in ESB Toolkit 2.0 (from Peter Kelcey), Sat, 01 May 2010 15:13:55 GMT

Peter Kelcey descirbes how to disable the intinerary encryption feature of ESB Toolkit 2.0 to be able to export models without encryption. This is obvisously only a good idea on a dev machine, or if your intineraries do not contain any sensible information.

Connected Systems in the Great White North : Disabling Itinerary Encryption in the ESB Toolkit 2.0

In short terms:

open “C:\Program Files\Microsoft BizTalk ESB Toolkit 2.0\Tools\Itinerary Designer\ruleset.config”, i.e. in Visual Studio
search for <property name="EncryptionCertificate">
comment its “validator”-subnode, that contains a validator type of “Microsoft.Practices.Modeling.Validation.X509CertificateContainerValidator”.

Be sure to restart Visual Studio, because it has to reload the ruleset.config!

Problems with VMware USB Arbitration Service and suspend mode, Sat, 20 Feb 2010 15:51:10 GMT

I am running Windows 7 x64 on a HP EliteBook 8530p. After installing latest VMWare Player (3.0.1) on the machine i got heavy issues after start from suspend mode. Sometimes the os hangs when suspending, and somtimes my usb or bluetooth hardware was not working anymore.

The only solution i found after many trial error sessions was to disable the service “VMware USB Arbitration Service” in the service control manager. That’s ok for me as a workaround, but clearly not acceptable.

But my hope is that Microsoft will support x64 OS’s with Windows Virtual PC.

Disabling Time Synchronization under Virtual PC, Wed, 06 Jan 2010 21:30:17 GMT

In Virtual PC 2007, Virtual Server and Windows Virtual PC per default the time is synchronized with the host time every 15 seconds. If you have to manipulate the time of a virtual system (for example for testing purposes), then you can change the time synch settings within the VMC-file of your virtual system. For details look at the excellent blog entry in Virtual PC Guy's WebLog : Disabling Time Synchronization under Virtual PC 2007 .
