Its been a while!

Wow, ok so it’s been a while since I’ve posted anything! Well, I’ve got some material to post on so I’m going to be doing a few more over the next few days.

I’ve recently been working on a project where I’ve been using the MS Patterns and Practices group’s Software Factories, along with VS 2005, and I have some thoughts and comments on these that I’d like to share.

Hopefully what I have to say will be helpful to someone, since much of what I’m going to post relates to solutions I found to some fairly fundamental limitations in a couple of the factories that our team used.

In particular, I’ll be addressing workarounds for issues found in the Service Factory Modelling Edition, and the Repository Factory (or Data Access Guidance Package), along with general notes on our teams experiences with these and the Smart Client Software Factory.

So, as I said, hopefully someone reading will find this interesting, or even helpful…

Cheers
Mark
