Define a service to expose logic. Expose the interface to this logic at a certain endpoint, certain channel (in our case BasicHTTPBinding).

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.ServiceModel;
using DM.PetShop;

namespace ConsoleApplication1
{
    class Program
    {
        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            // service relies on an implementation   
            ServiceHost host = new ServiceHost(typeof(OrderService));

            // service is exposed through the intreface (i.e. contract)
            host.AddServiceEndpoint(typeof(IOrderContract), new BasicHttpBinding(), "http://localhost:9000/PetShop");

            // open the service ("fire and forget" call)
            host.Open();

            // make sure the service doesn't die and print status
            Console.Title = String.Format("{0} is running ...", host.Description.Endpoints[0].Address);
            Console.Write("Server started. Press enter to stop..."); 
            Console.ReadLine();

            // close after receiving a keystroke
            host.Close();
            Console.WriteLine("Server stoppped. Press enter to quit...");
            Console.ReadLine();

        }
    }
}

Here is the contract (a.k.a. interface) that will be exposed to the world

using System.ServiceModel;

namespace DM.PetShop
{
    [ServiceContract(Name = "PetShopOrderContract", Namespace = Constants.SERVICE_NAMESPACE)]
    public interface IOrderContract
    {
        [OperationContract(Name = "PlaceOrder", Action = "PlaceOrder", ReplyAction = "PlaceOrderReply")]
        void PlaceOrder(string orderData);
    }
}

Here the implementation (note the annotations,most important part)

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.ServiceModel;

namespace DM.PetShop
{
    [ServiceBehavior(Name = "DM.PetShop.OrderService", Namespace = Constants.SERVICE_NAMESPACE)]
    public class OrderService : IOrderContract
    {
        public void PlaceOrder(string orderData)
        {
            Console.WriteLine("Diagnostic message !");
        }
    }
}

Then write a client :

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.ServiceModel;
using System.ServiceModel.Channels;
using IOrderContractChannelFactory = System.ServiceModel.ChannelFactory;
using DM.PetShop;

namespace Project_Client1
{
    class Client1App
    {
        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            IOrderContractChannelFactory factory = new IOrderContractChannelFactory(new BasicHttpBinding());
            IOrderContract channel = factory.CreateChannel(new EndpointAddress("http://localhost:9000/PetShop/"));
            channel.PlaceOrder("1 parrot");

            IClientChannel clientChannel = (IClientChannel)channel;
            try
            {
                if (clientChannel.State != CommunicationState.Closed)
                    clientChannel.Close();
            }
            catch
            {
                clientChannel.Abort();
            }
        }
    }
}

Annoying bind exception...
If it looks like :

java.net.BindException: Address already in use

Then you might start your inquiry with the following command :

Windows : netstat -nab

OSX / Unix : lsof -i :9000

And...

WTF, Firefox (might be Windows though) is responsible for the port occupation. Shut down Firefox, kill the annoying issue !

-> lsof == list open files -> man lsof

Weather is quite bad here in Zürich but well, I don't mind too much as I'll be attending Jazoon, THE java dev conference in Europe. I'll be blogging mainly for my employer but I'll tweet a lot, stay tuned : http://twitter.com/#search?q=Jazoon

Right now, opening keynote by James Gosling ! Edit 12:10 James Gosling's keynote was excellent, presenting shocking numbers and funny projects, in a nutshell :

• 10 billions Java enabled devices in the world (yes billions)
• 15 millions downloads of the JRE Java Runtime Environment a week
• 6 millions Java developpers

Projects mentioned, built on Java (of course) :

• brazilian healthcare system
• hadron collider in Geneva
• eBay.com Orbitz.com
• the Oyster card (London tube pass system)
• www.lincvolt.com project transforming a 6000 pounds lincoln car into an electric car, power management done by Java o' course

Then James did a little demo of the 2 ground breaking features of Java EE6, annotated servlets and EJB injection in servlets. I knew already about it, but it remains extremely handy and simplifies the EE development a great deal !

The talk closed with a little Java FX note and the future of computers, heading to massively parrallel computing instead of increasing GHz on single cores.

Afternoon sessions i attended were "RIA, security broken by design" and "JSF and Ajax @ Credit Suisse", quite obvious for the second one !
The RIA session was mostly about demoing XSS attacks and why using a framework is a good idea to enhance the security, nothing much. On the other hand, the CS-Jsf and Ajax session by Micha Kiener was extremely interesting and will hopefully impact my daily work as of Q3 2009. (Wait a minute Q3, really?).

Jazoon updates are starting to pop all around the blogosphere, in french even...Great !

GDP France 2007 : 1892 Billions EUR^[1]
State budget France 2007 : 355 Billions EUR ^[2]

GDP world 2007 : 78 360 Billions USD^[3]
Average daily trading volume on the FX market : 4000 Billions USD^[4]
Average daily trading volume in NYSE : 87 Billions USD^[5]

Paulson plan : 700 Billions USD^[6]
USA federal budget : 2979 Billions USD^[7]

Pour donner suite à cet article.

D'un point de vue pragmatique, j'aurais plus comparé des frameworks dans un premier temps. Applet, par exemple n'en a pas à ma connaissance, il faudra tout programmer de A à Z, et comprendre les détails de la techno. Pour faire une RIA, ça va être long. Très long. Personne ne fait ça, c'est clair.

Ajax, à l'opposé dispose de très nombreux frameworks qui permettront d'aller directement à l'essentiel.

• lightweight, javascript uniquement (Dojo, Striptaculous)
  • plus de contrôle
  • indépendance entre les technos UI et serveur
  • nombreux widgets
  • API pour la communication avec le serveur
• end-to-end (.Net Ajax framework, IceFaces, Appcelerator)
  • pas de javascript
  • style de développement identique aux applis non Ajax (tags générant du HTML et du JS)
  • dépendance accrue entre les widgets et la techno serveur

Dans la mesure ou l'on parle d'un business model de développement en interne, les coûts vont être pour 0.2 dans le dev et 0.6 dans la maintenance (licences, serveurs etc sont probablement négligeables).

Avec la mobilité permanente des développeurs, investir dans une techno jeune et très marketée comme Ajax, c'est s'assurer une certaine perennité et des coûts de maintenance bas. Qui ne connait pas Ajax dans le principe...
A l'inverse, quel développeur veut marquer sur son cv "2008-2010 : développement d'applets".

Pour Flex, comme toute techno propriétaire, les ressources de dév et maintenance coûteront plus chers "par tête", mais seront probablement plus productives, de par l'intégration et la qualité de l'outillage.

Pour revenir au concret, mes récentes tentatives avec JSF puis iceFaces ont été bien accueillies par les développeurs (Ajax framework de .Net pour les Microsoft boys). Solutions maintenant éprouvées, légères, qui couvrent la majorité des besoins, simples à maintenir dans le sens ou elles sont standard.
Applets? Plusieurs legacy en ont, et c'est un véritable cauchemar en maintenance...
Allez un peu de recherche sur JavaFX maintenant !
