I have been working the past month on a whitepaper entitled, “Developing a Transactional BizTalk Adapter Using the Microsoft Base Adapter Classes“.  It is almost ready for customer review and I would greatly appreciate any feedback before I finalize it.  My asking for your comments is not to have you check the validity of my technical content or give me grammatical recommendations. Rather, I want comments like:



  • “Please explain topic X to me more. I have never understood that and Microsoft has not done a good job of that”.

  • “Can you add a section on Y? I feel it would really help other developers as I really struggled in this area since the documentation is lacking”.

That’s the kind of stuff I want from developers so Microsoft can better serve you and make adapter development easier for our customers. Let this paper be a means to share any lessons learned in your development process to benefit others like you.


If you are interested please click on the “EMAIL” link at the top of this page and send me your email address. I will most likely send you directly the version to review by this Thursday, April 6th. Again, it will not be in an edited or finished state at that point but you are reviewing for missing or expanded content anyway so it should not matter.


Thank you for your assistance on this!


Kind regards


Mike
