We just uploaded to our corporate
site a small sample we created for the Windows Vista Launch in Colombia, showing
some features in Windows Communication Foundation, Windows Workflow Foundation and
BizTalk Server 2006.
The
sample showcases a simple business scenario that uses features like WCF self-hosted
services, multiple bindings (HTTP and TCP) and callback contracts. The service is
consumed by a simple WinForms client, as well as a simple State-Machine Workflow that
uses the HandleExternalEvent activity to receive events fired by the WCF service,
as well as my own custom MSMQ
activities to fire messages off to BizTalk for further processing. (Notice we
focused on the core features and keeping the code simple to showcase them, so the
sample lacks quite a bit of error handling).
