Hello,

I'm interested in the support of POX and JSON messages with WCF in framework 3.5 but I have difficulties for finding documentation and tutorial about it.

Is there a SDK or a website dedicated on this new part of WCF

Thanks in advance.

See http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb412169(VS.90).aspx and http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb412169(VS.90).aspx. This documentation will be significantly improved by the time 3.5 officially ships. Feel free to post specific questions on the forum.

There is also a lot of useful information on Steve Maine's blog - see http://hyperthink.net/blog/

Can you just confirm me that I can use WCF 3.5 beta 2 with Visual studio 2005 pro or I am obliged or is it better to use WCF 3.5 beta 2 with Visual Studio Orcas beta 1 or 2

I've just posted a blog entry at: http://dev.aol.com/node/595 about WCF and REST that may be of interest.

Cheers,

Intersting but ... is it obliged to install Orcas beta 1 or beta 2 to use .NET framework 3.5 or can we use it with Visual Studio 2005

We've managed to get some test app using WCF + JSON encoding to work with IIS 6 and the VS build-in webserver using Orcas beta 2. However it is completely broken on IIS 5.1. Is JSON encoding supported on IIS 5.x Is there any known issues/workarounds Has anybody successfully made WCF + JSON to work with IIS 5.x

could you be more specific about what is completely broken

It turns out to be a known IIS Metabase corruption issue caused by WCF installer. One needs to to run:

C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v3.0\Windows Communication Foundation\ServiceMoelReg.exe -i -s:W3SVC/Identifier to clean it up.

This fixed the problem on the test machine (WinXP SP2/IIS 5.1)

Eugene,

both of these links are the same link.

Did you intend to share another link also

Thanks!

You're right, my mistake... the other link is http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb412173(VS.90).aspx (the previous one is about POX and generally about "non-SOAP" service support in 3.5, this one is specifically about JSON). Unfortunately I see that not much content actually made it to the public location - we have much more written in these topics internally than is currently online - I'll check with our documentation team.
