WSETrace Here

As everybody knows, Simon produced a really useful wse trace viewer: however, I was never able to use it as quckly as I’d like (when you open it you have to navigate to your project via folder dialog, instead of pasting the path: and I have the tendency of building pretty deep folder hierarchies)….

Quote of the week

“Web service developers have trouble dealing with humans, and I’m not just talking about getting dates.” Keith Brown, from http://msdn.microsoft.com/webservices/default.aspx?pull=/library/en-us/dnwse/html/securusernametoken.asp Well, I’d say it can be locally true but fortunately I would not hold it as a general rule… 🙂If you exclude the above, the paper is a concentrate of wisdom.

Yet it’s a very useful compass while you implement custom policy assertions, so I’m going to tell you what it is…

Non sono uno spergiuro, ne mi sono dimenticato: semplicemente al momento attuale mi sto occupando d’altro, quindi cerco di evitare l’overhead del context switch. Tra qualche tempo dovrei tornare sull’argomento, ed approfitterò dello stato di attivazione dei relativi simboli (grazie Marvin!) per riprendere a raccontarvi come funzionano…
