Re: Indigo (WCF) for CE?

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

Web-service "type" functionality that is available in (Platform builder
based) CE today includes the SOAP toolkit, UPnP (doesn't have security so I
can't recommend too highly unless you're on a truly private network), and
the web server where you can do stuff at the ISAPI level. I'd definitely
recommend using the web server as a base rather than doing raw-sockets for
communication since it solves problems, like authentication and keep-alives
and other lower level parsing, that you'd have to rework on your own.

MS doesn't currently ship an Indigo style Web Services stack for CE. There
may be 3rd party stacks available at some point.

Afternoon all,

So in a posting a while back, we learned that MSFT might be taking DCOM
out of future releases of CE. I don't believe there will be many of us
that
will shed tears over that...

So for those of us that are developing client/server applications that
need to make 'remote' calls to servers running on CE devices, where does
that
leave us? For our application, web services are too slow for our
needs...There is always socket level communications...What about Indigo
(WCF)?

I'm looking for thoughts and comments on this. I know there are a
plethora of options. We would love to standardize on one for both our PC
and
CE version of the application.

Don't know if this is the appropriate newsgroup for this question. If
it
isn't, please direct me to the correct one.

Thanks...as always!

Greg Holt
