David Ornstein's WebLog

I'm a Lead Program Manager in the Digital Documents group at Microsoft; we're part of the Windows team.

Wiki web service and winforms client -- almost

I got the latest FlexWiki sources down so I could try out OmarShahine's web service for FlexWiki (FlexWikiWebService) and the WinForms wiki client (FlexWikiEditor). Alas, I couldn't get it to work. Probably just a configuration issue. I'm a web services novice (oh, the pain of aging :-)). I'm sure he'll get me setup soon. And when he does, oh la la! I think it's great that we're getting a web service in place and experiementing with a client-side Wiki client (er, yuck -- horrible English).

I had an issue running it myself where I kept getting an "object ref not set to an object" when the "Namespaces" combo tried to set it's selected value upon startup. Turns out, the WinForms client requires each _ContentBaseDefintion to have a "Title" property, which the client uses for display in the drop down. Without that property, it'll throw some errors.

If that happened to be your issue, adding the property should solve it.

David's issue was user error. He forgot to copy the DLL.

But thanks for the bug report. I should check for null, and display the name if there is no title defined!
