I produced a new set of short videos around ADO.NET Data Services and dropped them on to Channel 9. You can find them here; http://channel9.msdn.com/tags/UK and that list will grow as time goes in ( specifically, it'll grow if I can get the publishing system to publish my next 4 videos for me as it's...

Someone asked me about this so I thought I'd share here. The question was around how you can work with database generated values and have them returned to the client after the insert. My experiment ran like this. I created a table; create table test ( id int identity primary key not null , someColumn...

I made a few videos about Data Services. I have plans to make a few more as well but (as always :-)) I've got distracted by something else so, for the meantime; ADO.NET Data Services - Surfacing Data ADO.NET Data Services - Querying with URI's ADO.NET Data Services - A Basic .NET Client ADO.NET Data...

Just a quick link to make this easier to find; ADO.NET Data Services Silverlight Add-On

I keep searching the web to find this useful document about Data Services; Using ADO.NET Data Services CTP1 so I'm linking to it here for my own sanity :-) Maybe it's installed as part of the SDK. Maybe it's on another website somewhere but I can never find it when I want it (well, ok, I can now I've...

One of the things that I briefly mentioned in this post was the idea that because Data Services sits atop of WCF you can plug in a ServiceAuthorizationManager which gets a chance to look at every request before it gets dispatched into your data service. Whilst you can write explicit interceptors that...

Take some of this with a pinch of salt - just some thoughts I had whilst playing with controlling access to an ADO.NET Data Service, haven't necessarily got it worked out just yet. When you first create an ADO.NET Data Service, one of the things that you'll encounter is the need to configure access to...

This is one of those posts where I might not have thought the whole thing through but I was thinking about authenticating clients with ADO.NET Data Services. In Data Services, we have the URI of the resource and an XML/JSON response so for authentication there really isn't anywhere to put credentials...

Following on from these posts; ADO.NET Data Services - Exposing Arbitrary Data (1) ADO.NET Data Services - Exposing Arbitrary Data (2) ADO.NET Data Services - Exposing Arbitrary Data (3) it's time to look at updates. Using the Entity Framework based service I can write a simple update such as; demoEntities...

Following on from these posts; ADO.NET Data Services - Exposing Arbitrary Data (1) ADO.NET Data Services - Exposing Arbitrary Data (2) what if I want to delete my newly inserted data? Against the Entity Framework data source I can write something like; demoEntities efService = new demoEntities( "http...

Following on from the previous post , I wanted to look at how we can make our arbitrary data source available for both read and write in the same way that an Entity Framework data source is. As I talked about in this post , this involves implementing IUpdatable on the class that we feed to WebDataService<T>...

I've been playing over Xmas with exposing arbitrary data from an ADO.NET Data Service and I wanted to try and write it up here although I don't have it 100% nailed down or correct at this point - still some things to figure out. Note that a lot of this is already covered by Jonathan up here but I want...
