I'm developing a silverlight app which needs to create some files in the hosting server whenever there is an updation in the data. I googled for this scenario but as of now no luck...Pls advice on this approach.
Thanks,
Magz
You can create a web service that to serve as a bridge between the silverlight app and the hosting server.

I am learning Asp.net Core Web Api. I need to access the api from a flutter application but am not ready to host the api on Azure. What are my options if I want to host the api locally on my computer so I can access it from another application like my Flutter app client, and is there any tutorials I can follow to learn how to implement the solution.
There are several ways to go about this, here are some options:
FROM VISUAL STUDIO: You can simply run the ASP.NET Core Web API from Visual Studio in Development Mode by Pressing F5
FROM COMMAND PROMPT: Run the API Project from the command line by opening a command prompt window in the root project folder of the project and use the dotnet run command. See here for more info about the command: dotner run command
HOSTING IN IIS: I am assuming you are running a windows OS. You can turn on IIS and its features. Simply follow the instructions on this page: Host ASP.NET Core in IIS on how to deploy ASP.NET Core to IIS. The advantage of this is that you have the application always running while you work on your flutter application locally.
I hope this helps you resolve your situation.

If your application is developing now, there is no need to host the application and let the Flutter app client to access. We could build some json file as the right format like web api response to develop the client app.
If your client application and web api has now developed successfully, you want to host the web api to let fluent app or other application to access from internet. You should have a public IP address and host the application on IIS or else. Public IP address you should ask for the IP provider company. Without a public address, the client side app couldn't access your application from internet.
If your web api and the client app are in the same intranet, you could let the client app directly access the web api after the web api hosted on IIS by using hosting server's IP address.
About how to host the asp.net core application on IIS, you could refer to this article.
I have two services i.e. jsf web app service and android service. Both are using the same functionality like login registration etc.
Now I have to separate both the services because I have used all the functionality in web app that same functionality I want to use it for android app..
So how can I deploy it on the server?
Like on the apache server in webapp folder there will be two subfolders webapp/android and webapp/webapp so where can I store all the *.java files(Which contains the login and communicate with database) on the server so that both of them can access the existing functionality.
Thanks
I am new to Windows Azure and I have a question.
I have:
Web site which deployed to Windows Azure - The web site manage a table (add, edit, delete). I used this guide: Deploying an ASP.NET Web Application to a Windows Azure Web Site and SQL Database
Andorid application & iOS Application (Native Code).
Now, I want the mobile applications to get data (in JSON format) from the web site (and from the DB).
What is the best practice to do that?
I tried to create a Azure (WCF) Service (the project refrenced to the web site project) but I didn't succeded. If this is the way - Is anyone knows a good tutorial to do that?
Is there another option? Maybe from the web site itself?
Thank you very much,
Yuval
If you want to integrate with non-Microsoft technologies I suggest you take a look at the ASP.NET Web API which allows you to build REST services using content negotiation. Content negotiation allows your consumer to specify the format it requires (json, xml, ...).
To host the ASP.NET Web API in a Windows Azure Web Site you should take a look at Carlos' blog, he describes in detail what you need to do to make this work: Creating ASP.NET Web APIs on Azure Web Sites
Have you given ASP.NET Web API a look-see?

i am new to the concept of silverlight and understood few things from this site.
i want to clear my doubt that what is the role of wcf ria services in silverlight applications?
what do we mean by domain services?
In Silverlight, you do not connect to a database directly - your Silverlight app runs on the client machine after all. The client-side UI (Silverlight) and the database / backend are strictly separated. The number of classes that the Silverlight runtime has to offer is (by design) quite limited, and things like direct database access are not amongst those classes available.
The way your SL app gets its data is through a WCF service (Domain service, or WCF Data Service) running on some server, which accesses the database on your behalf. This part usually runs on your web/app server and has access to your database or other backend servers.
The domain services are the one who gives you access to a remote repositories using WCF technology. That Silverlight compact .Net framework is on the clientside which needs to access services through cloud (internet) in able to interact data to the users.

Happy reading!
I created a RoleService in my silverlight project and through that got hold of the embership/Role functionality. I am running this on a local machine and is wondering how to publish this to my website. I have 3 web applications:
My main web application where the silverlight object shoule be merged into
The silverlight project which lets me develop the silverlight application
The silverlight host application which I use for testing
In the web application (1) i have made the RoleService so that i can get a hold on my Roles. In the Silverlight application (2) I have a service reference to the service mentioned above which I consume and loads my Role data. This howecer doesnt work when i publich it online. But how do i get it to work online?
Is it because it is trying to connect to service with wrong address? If so, then you just need to propagate WCF service address to your Silverlight application through hosting web.config and start connecting to a correct service.
Let me know if this is the case, then I will share exact solution for this.
