How do you differentiate between application and infrastructure endpoints?
I'm creating a custom behaviour for WCF which can (for interoperability reasons) only function correctly when a service exposes a single application endpoint. I would like to be able to use the IServiceBehavior.Validate method to check that only one application endpoint is exposed by the service. Currently I'm doing the following: publ...

Retrieving Local Resource Values correctly: GetGlobalResourceObject or .NET Control?
Hey guys, While developing I've seen a couple different ways to get local resources values from the resx files. Which one is considered the best practice? Using the GetGlobalResourceObject method: <a id="myLink" href="#"><%= GetGlobalResourceObject("Filter","Diary")%></a> Or using a control and setting the value directly in the resx...

Code First CTP4: How to map these two entities
Let's say that I have two entities, Team and Match. In every Match, there are two teams, the HomeTeam and the AwayTeam. A Team can have many matches, but HomeTeam and AwayTeam can only have one team each. Sometimes Team is a HomeTeam, and sometimes the same Team is an AwayTeam. I have provided just the basics for each of the classes: pu...
Design for remote debugging and status checking
I have an application that runs on a headless linux box (a SheevaPlug, to be precise). (It collects data from a weather station and sends it to a database, in case you're wondering.) I'm having a hard time debugging problems with the application because I can only SSH into the box or view it on the network (thanks to Samba). I could log...
Add Factory Support for a Windsor Registration Dynamically
I have an interface public interface IResolver<T> { T Resolve(); } I know this isn't the ideal (service locator is an anti-pattern and all), but in some cases it's still necessary (for example WCF service activation - I don't want to instantiate the channel until Resolve() is explicitly called...and in the case of BasicHTTP, the ...

Castle Windsor Internal Constructor/Class
I looked at this and it answers half my questions: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2370546/castle-windsor-register-class-with-internal-constructor But can you use Windsor to use internal constructors/class along with dependency injection? (so constructor parameters get injected too)? I'd like to keep the class/constructor internal t...
DLL - Using main project classes in library class
I've never tried separating down my projects into DLLs but something I'm working on at the moment calls for a more modular approach. What I want to be able to do is switch out versions of a number of my classes easily to push updates to users without them having to re install my entire application. These classes create instances of oth...

ASP.NET - Dynamic controls created in Page_Pre_init() or Page_Init() or Page_Load()
Where is the best place to create dynamic controls in ASP.NET? MSDN says Pre_init , another MSDN article says Init, and some people say the Load event (which I read isn't good to do). I'm studying for a MS certification and I want to make sure I know which one is ideal and why. My initial thought would be to create the object in pre_i...
