TL;DR; Update on TFS Event Handler project progress, focusing on resolving security issues, improving error handling in WCF services, and finalising the admin system.
I am making lots of progress with this project and I have only a couple of work items left for CTP1:
Now 204 is nearly complete, with only testing to go and that is dependant on 203 .
The error handling is an interesting issue as you really have to hand craft exceptions using the FaultException class otherwise your Windows Communication Foundation services will enter the dreaded faulted state.
I have been reading up on these FaultException thingies, here is the article I have been reading:
Willy-Peter Schaub’s Cave of Chamomile Simplicity - WCF FaultException … why use it?
This makes for good reading, and although a little scary on the output side, does highlight the problem and the solution!
If you've made it this far, it's worth connecting with our principal consultant and coach, Martin Hinshelwood, for a 30-minute 'ask me anything' call.
