Microsoft Silverlight and SOA
by Colin on Apr.14, 2008, under Groovy-Grails, RIA, Silverlight
This past weekend I spoke at the Twin Cities Code Camp. It was a Blast. My Presentation was Microsoft Silverlight and SOA. Its new technology so resources at this point are few and far between. Silverlight itself is only a a 2.0 Beta 1 stage.
During the presentation, I highlighted Silverlight’s abilities to consume and invoke web services. I wanted to show cross-domain services calls where the server is a non-microsoft based application.
I developed a RESTful Server application in Grails on Linux.
The demo Silverlight application is a Video Podcast Administration Application. I specifically wanted to show several client side methods of invoking web services. I didn’t want to focus on any fancy visual effects video transformations etc.
Here is code for the Grails Server.
Here is the Silverlight Application code.
My Presentation is in a Google Doc.
I had a blast at Code Camp, It sounds like something I’ll probably do again.
I might also put a short video together to show its functionality for Inetium. I’ll be sure to post it here.
Cheers!

Hey, I came across this post while searching for help with fixing Microsoft Silverlight. I’ve recently switched browsers from Safari to IE. After the change I seem to have a problem with loading sites that use Microsoft Silverlight. Every time I go on a page that needs Microsoft Silverlight, my computer doesn’t load and I get a “npctrl.dll” error. I cannot seem to find out how to fix it. Any help getting Microsoft Silverlight to function is greatly appreciated! Thanks
