WCF Error The underlying connection was closed – Developer Geeks

Had the problem that in a WCF I have an base class type as an return type. In the service itself I returned a subtype. The service itself works as expected. The client itself has the problem that an error message “The underlying connection was closed. The connection was closed unexpectedly.” comes.

The Error itself is nonsense. But the problem itself does make sense. The Object are serialized and sent over the wire and the client expects a certail serialization structure (of the base type, not the subtype). Due to this the client can not deserialize the incoming packet.

This site helped me wading through the error message.

Postsharp – Anhand eines Beispiels gut erklärt

An einer Entwicklersitzung wurde Postsharp mal vorgestellt. Ich (MMa) setze es mittlerweile in 2 Projekten produktiv ein und bin damit sehr zufrieden. Die Funktionsweise ist auf den ersten Blick etwas kompliziert (oder wer kann schon mit dem Begriff “aspektorientierte Programmierung” ohne Erklärung was anfangen…).

In diesem Blog wird anhang einer Logging, Exception Handling und Auditing Anfordernis erklärt wie einfach dass man eine bestehende Anwendung damit nachrüsten kann.

Interaction issue between System.XML.XSL.XSLCompiledTransform and tag in Internet Explorer

 

Interesting. If you not specify the Output method to HTML in a XSL Stylesheet and then do a XSL Transformation with .Net, the Script Tags are not rendered correctly. This can – especially with Sharepoint – lead to problems!
