EntitySpaces REST/POX API Codename Epoxy(entityspaces.net)

submitted by AerosSaga(165) 4 years, 11 months ago

Epoxy is a REST/POX webservice API that extends the EntitySpaces Architecture. If you are unfamiliar with what REST/POX is I would recommend checking out the excellent series over at Softies On Rails. This addition is meant to empower the creation of massively public http API's for any application that you develop with the EntitySpaces Architecture. Why would you want to expose your EntitySpaces objects via REST/POX and not just provide the defacto SOAP service API? Well, lets face it not everyone is living in the .NET world. Don't you want all your cool ruby coding friends to be able to consume your services easily? Of course you do, not to mention the 100's of other geeks that will write clients if only you allow them to do it in the language of their choice without jumping through a lot of hoops. For a more authoritative answer on when to use REST/POX instead of or in conjunction with SOAP, check out what Don Box has to say about it. read more...

EntitySpaces to Support CodeSmith(entityspaces.net)

submitted by AerosSaga(165) 4 years, 11 months ago

EntitySpaces 2008 will greatly expand the reach of the EntitySpaces Architecture for the Microsoft .NET Framework by supporting both MyGeneration and CodeSmith. Our decision to support CodeSmith by no means indicates we are abandoning MyGeneration. MyGeneration will continue to be supported by EntitySpaces. We understand code generator loyalty, and we love MyGeneration. But, CodeSmith has its fervent followers, too. EntitySpaces 2008 will open up a new market for EntitySpaces and will give current EntitySpaces users a choice of generator. As of EntitySpaces 2008, the EntitySpaces Architecture will be a very viable choice for the CodeSmith Community. Supporting CodeSmith will have the added advantage of allowing users to generate their EntitySpaces architecture(s) from within Visual Studio 2005 via CodeSmith’s Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 integration. Supporting both MyGeneration and CodeSmith, as this post will outline, can be accomplished quite elegantly, and even allow for greater customization by the EntitySpaces Team. read more...

The EntitySpaces 2007 (ES2007) Architecture for the Microsoft .NET Framework was released to production on May 28th, 2007. The EntitySpaces team would like to thank both our customers and those evaluating EntitySpaces for working hand in hand with us on the ES2007 release. The first ES2007 beta was posted on March 4th and thus began the customer feedback / defect reporting cycle with new versions following quickly as advancements were made. You have truly helped us to make EntitySpaces 2007 a very solid offering for those developing for the Microsoft .NET Framework. We are particularly pleased with some of the mobile development that is beginning to take root. We strive hard through our forums to hear you and allow you to shape the architecture you have invested in. We also work very hard to provide high quality support on our forums and to make ourselves available to our customers. ES2007 is a major advancement over it's predecessor (1.5.3) released on December 30th, 2006, these are just some of the new features. read more...

Microsoft ruined data binding in ASP.NET 2.0 when they dropped compone(entityspaces.net)

submitted by AerosSaga(165) 5 years, 2 months ago

Microsoft ruined data binding in ASP.NET 2.0 when they dropped component support from the design surface. What am I talking about? Well, if you have ever used data objects or business objects that support the proper interfaces you can drag then right out onto your form, add them as the datasource to your grid, and then pick which columns you want to use, and in what order, including sorting, and so on. You can do that now with EntitySpaces in Windows.Forms, but all that was removed from ASP.NET 2.0. Why? Let's go back in time and look at the reason Microsoft gave (and still gives) as the reason they decided to remove design time data binding support from the ASP.NET 2.0 Framework. read more...
