XWsdl

  Home Page

Categories:	Web Services - Remoting - WCF
Author:	Devolutions
Latest version:	1.0.0.0
Description:	Program used to create a Web Services proxy without business object generation. XWsdl is useful when you want to share business objects from the server to the client. The server must be created in .NET. It's an extension to the original wsdl.exe from Microsoft. XWsdl uses the Schema Importer Extensions and simplifies the deployment. Without this tool, the extension must be deployed in the GAC and the machine.config must be changed. Alternatively you can install it in the Visual Studio 2005 private assemblies directory and modify the devenv.exe.config.

PeerChannel

  Home Page

Categories:	Web Services - Remoting - WCF
Author:	Mailframe
Latest version:	1.0.1317.11722
Description:	Improves .NET Remoting with support for callbacks and asynchronous events. Rather than opening a new connection for each method call/lookup, as is done in stock .NET remoting, PeerChannel will open only one socket between two hosts. Messages between hosts are multiplexed on this socket. This cuts down on connection setup time as well as conserves socket handles, particularly on heavily loaded hosts that potentially can have many incoming calls at once. Features include: - Bidirectional replacement for TcpChannel - Scalable MultiQueue - Supports server activated objects, client activated objects, and asynchronous remoting - Works with both binary and SOAP formatters - Replaceable prefix allows transparent upgrade - AES/Rijndael Encryption option

Categories:	Web Services - Remoting - WCF
Latest version:	1.2.1
Description:	C# library for the Hessian web service protocol. The Hessian binary web service protocol makes web services usable without requiring a large framework, and without learning yet another alphabet soup of protocols. Because it is a binary protocol, it is well-suited to sending binary data without any need to extend the protocol with attachments.
