Boise CodeCamp: Enabling REST in ASP.NET

Building a RESTful Web Application in ASP.NET 2.0 (from the Internet track)
Representational State Transfer (REST) is means to provide access to, and deliver information based on  a unique identifier, such as a URL. In the Web 2.0 world, REST interfaces will enable easier consumption of data by client applications that XML Web Services have. Desiging your Web applications to support RESTful end points, you can open up a broad range of oportunities, including AJAX consumers, and dynamic applications supporting a variety of data requests. In this session you will learn how to use the features in ASP.NET 2.0 to enable RESTful interfaces in your Web application.

Last weekend, four developers from my team and I headed over to Boise, Idaho for my second code camp.

I enjoyed your speech at the .Net Developers Association. I tried out the code at my ISP GoDaddy and just could not get it to work. Then I found this URL http://channel9.msdn.com/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=136549 that seems to think that GoDaddy and maybe other ISPs will not support this.

Are you aware of this problem? Any suggestions, because I'm thinking of pulling my sites from GoDaddy but don't know to whom?

I have the code from this demo running on my hosted site. I use DiscountASP.NET. The VPP seems to work fine for ASP.NET types (.aspx, .ascx, etc.), although non-ASP.NET MIME types (XML, RSS) are not working correctly.

I tried opening this project with my VSTS2005. Getting an error like "The project type is not supported by this installation". Is there something that I am missing.

You need to install the Web Application Project add-in for Visual Studio 2005.

I'm just finishing my MSc project and dissertation on REST Web services and I've only just found this demo (some researcher, huh?) Shame, because it's the best, infact the only, ASP.NET demo around and I could have made so much better use of it. Anyway, I'll use it as an example to back up my points about REST being suitable for business transactions, if that's OK with you Doug.

Brilliant demo. Thanks for doing it!

Cheers

I get this when running the project.

Compiler Error Message: CS0246: The type or namespace name 'TemplateContainer' could not be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)

Ideas?

Hi,

I have installed VS 2008 Team Edition for Architects along with asp.net 3.5 extensions CTP version available at http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/thankyou.aspx?familyId=a9c6bc06-b894-4b11-8300-35bd2f8fc908&displayLang=en on my XP machine. However, when I try to create new "ASP.NET MVC Web Application" project I always get "The project type is not supported by this installation." error. I tried opening a existing "ASP.NET MVC Web Application" project which I downloaded from http://weblogs.asp.net/scottgu/archive/2007/12/09/asp-net-mvc-framework-part-4-handling-form-edit-and-post-scenarios.aspx but I still have the same problem.

Am I missing anything?

thanks
