If you try to contact me and I don't respond, don't worry... I'm simply SOA bound.

I have cut all contact with the outside world for a couple of days to make sure I can finish my work on the SOA Application I talked about earlier. It is not easy to do a project all by oneself, with nobody doing tests and other simple tasks. I have to go from thinking at the conceptuel level to creafting impelmentations, to downlevel code debugging stuff (with transactions, multithreading, message conversions, ...and all and all) ...

For now, I have 6 different services (two of which exist in 4 instances each, and one in two instances), with a process handled by one way web service requests all the way through, all collaborating nicely (with basic integration tests, I still have some debugging going on). I am plugging the UI on to do integration tests.

I hope by tomorrow, I will have a beta release to start talking about.

SOA stuff coming up

I haven't been blogging for a while, and that is simply because I am too deeply immersed into a project. I can"t tell too much yet, but basically I am building a good size SOA implementation. Off course, it is not the size of proseware, nor as fancily crafted (I don't have the skill of Sir Clemens to do that), but it is still a nice example (with a few thousands of lines of code). It will be another two weeks before I can discuss it more openly here...

What a stupid approach to building a highly visible site!

This is just one of many errors on this page... looks like they have some guy editing HTML to make the needed changes which occur...whenever they have some election news!!!!

One would have expected that they would have heard of DataBases, and maybe even about Content Management... not after you look at the javascript mess they have on the page, and the errors that kep showing up hinting that HTML has changed and is broken...
