Validating Collections of Entities in LightSwitch - Beth Massi

jantu 1023 days, 9 hours, 4 minutes ago

One of the many challenging things in building n-tier applications is designing a validation system that allows running rules on both the client and the server and sending messages and displaying them back on the client. I’ve built a couple application frameworks in my time and so I know how tricky this can be. I’ve been spending time digging into the validation framework for LightSwitch and I have to say I’m impressed. LightSwitch makes it easy to write business rules in one place and run them in the ap...

Integrate Outlook Appointments with SharePoint 2010 Calendar Lists using Data Services - Beth Massi

published 1084 days, 9 hours, 43 minutes ago posted by

jantu 1085 days, 14 hours, 48 minutes ago

The other day a good friend of mine asked me if it was possible to send appointments created in Outlook into a SharePoint calendar list. It’s easy enough to grab this data from Outlook by building an add-in with Visual Studio, but what also turned out to be really easy was sending this information to SharePoint using its built-in WCF data services, also known as OData. OData is an open REST-ful protocol for exposing and consuming data on the web. I’ve written before about how we could consume these Share... (more)
