Visual Studio 2010 was released yesterday

Unfortunately, I have just checked the MSDNAA site and they still do not have the release version of Visual Studio 2010. They only have an old Beta2. I would recommend that if you do not have access to Visual Studio 2010 through other means, that you keep an eye on the MSDNAA web site and see if VS2010 becomes available. If and when it becomes available, I would not recommend that you install it while you are finishing CS 503. Download it and save it somewhere and when the course is done, you can knock yourself out :)

WCF Dos and Don'ts

Do not inherit interfaces from other interfaces. Interfaces are contracts. Contracts must be explicit, otherwise the flexibility and maintainability of your design would run into issues. An interface is a pure contract definition and should remain explicit and pure. Consider the following example: [ServiceContract] public interface IMyService1 { [OperationContract] void Test1(); } [ServiceContract] public interface IMyService2 : IMyService1 { [OperationContract] void Test2(); } [ServiceBehavior(…)] class MyService : IMyService2, IMyService1 { #region IMyService2 Members public void Test2() { } #endregion #region IMyService1 Members public void Test1() { } #endregion } What happens when you Publish your Service and open its communication channels. If you do the following: ServiceHost serviceHost = new ServiceHost(typeof(MyService, …) ServiceEndpoint ep = serviceHost.AddServiceEndpoint(typeof(IMyService1), typeof(IMyService2)); You will get
