Publication number: 20070124738Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer program products for converting an object of one type to an object of another type that allow for the runtime operation of the conversion process to be altered or customized. The conversion may occur within an extensible serialization engine that serializes, deserializes, and transforms objects of various types. The runtime operation of the serialization engine is altered by one or more extension routines that implement the desired customizations or extensions, without requiring replacement of other existing routines. Based on type information, identified for an initial object, the object is converted to an intermediate representation which permits runtime modification, including modification of object names, object types, and object data. The intermediate representation of the initial object is modified in accordance with extension routines that alter the runtime operation of the serialization engine, and the intermediate representation is converted to a final object and type.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 5, 2006Publication date: May 31, 2007Applicant: Microsoft CorporationInventors: Stefan Pharies, Sowmy Srinivasan, Natasha Jethanandani, Yann Christensen, Elena Kharitidi, Douglas Purdy

Publication number: 20060178152Abstract: The present invention provides for a channel model capable of generating a runtime communication channel with pluggable modular channel components. These channel components implement one of a set of standard interfaces that allow processing details of communication semantics between components to be represented in a polymorphic way. A message and corresponding communication semantics are recursively passed through the channel components using the standard interface, thereby abstracting other modules and components from specific implementation details of how the communication semantics are performed. The message may then be sent to the next appropriate module for further processing, or the processing may be completed at that particular component or module. Note also that the message can also be de-multiplexed on the service side in a similar fashion as that described above.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 4, 2005Publication date: August 10, 2006Applicant: Microsoft CorporationInventors: Bradford Lovering, David Wortendyke, Elliot Waingold, Erik Christensen, Kenneth Wolf, Michael Vernal, Shy Cohen, Stefan Pharies

Publication number: 20060173933Abstract: The transfer of raw data from a source data structure to a target data structure that represent the same item. During the data transfer, if there is a given field in the target data structure that does not correspond to a field supplied by the source data structure, the transfer mechanism determines whether or not it is mandatory that the source data structure supply the field. If it is mandatory, the transfer fails. Otherwise, the transfer continues. If there is field of the source data structure that does not correspond to a field of the target data structure, the transfer mechanism determines whether or not it is mandatory that the target data structure have the field. If it is mandatory, the transfer fails. Otherwise, the corresponding data may be provided to a residual field of the target data structure dedicated for unknown data.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 1, 2005Publication date: August 3, 2006Applicant: Microsoft CorporationInventors: Sowmyanarayanan Srinivasan, Natasha Jethanandani, Stefan Pharies, Douglas Purdy, Donald Box, Gopala Kakivaya

Publication number: 20060174016Abstract: The present invention provides for an automated, user friendly way of constructing and using a binding object. A developer is presenting and selects binding elements that will ultimately be used to create a runtime communication channel for transporting a message between a client and service endpoint. After receiving the user input, metadata, a channel factory and listener factory are created. The metadata describes binding elements and provides an abstract representation of a protocol stack that implements communication aspects at runtime. The channel factory is configured to use the collection of metadata at runtime to generate the runtime communication channel. Further, the listener factory is configured to accept the runtime communication channel for de-multiplex the communication aspects in order to process the message at a service endpoint. The present invention also provides for groupings of binding elements and standardized binging objects organized based on industry need.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 1, 2005Publication date: August 3, 2006Applicant: Microsoft CorporationInventors: Craig Critchley, David Wortendyke, Elliot Waingold, Eric Zinda, Erik Christensen, Giovanni Della-Libera, Kenneth Wolf, Michael Vernal, Shy Cohen, Stefan Pharies, Stephen Millet, Stephen Swartz, Tomasz Janczuk, Uday Hegde, Yaniv Pessach

Publication number: 20060150200Abstract: A web services namespace pertains to an infrastructure for enabling creation of a wide variety of applications. The infrastructure provides a foundation for building message-based applications of various scale and complexity. The infrastructure or framework provides APIs for basic messaging, secure messaging, reliable messaging and transacted messaging. In some embodiments, the associated APIs are factored into a hierarchy of namespaces in a manner that balances utility, usability, extensibility and versionability.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 3, 2004Publication date: July 6, 2006Applicant: Microsoft CorporationInventors: Shy Cohen, Geary Eppley, Douglas Purdy, James Johnson, Stephen Millet, Stephen Swartz, Vijay Gajjala, Aaron Stern, Alexander DeJarnatt, Alfred Lee, Anand Rjagopalan, Anastasios Kasiolas, Chaitanya Upadhyay, Christopher Kaler, Craig Critchley, David Levin, David Driver, David Wortendyke, Douglas Walter, Elliot Waingold, Erik Christensen, Erin Honeycutt, Eugene Shvets, Evgeny Osovetsky, Giovanni Della-Libera, Jesus Ruiz-Scougall, John Doty, Jonathan Wheeler, Kapil Gupta, Kenneth Wolf, Krishnan Srinivasan, Lance Olson, Matthew Tavis, Mauro Ottaviani, Max Feingold, Michael Coulson, Michael Marucheck, Michael Vernal, Michael Dice, Mohamed-Hany Ramadan, Mohammad Makarechian, Natasha Jethanandani, Richard Dievendorff, Richard Hill, Ryan Sturgell, Saurab Nog, Scott Seely, Serge Sverdlov, Siddhartha Puri, Sowmyanarayanan Srinivasan, Stefan Batres, Stefan Pharies, Tirunelveli Vishwanath, Tomasz Janczuk, Uday Hegde, Umesh Madan, Vaithialingam Balayogan, Vipul Modi, Yaniv Pessach, Yasser Shohoud

Publication number: 20060123047Abstract: The present invention extends to using Simple Object Access Protocol (“SOAP”) to exchange typed objects, such as, for example, parameters for invoking methods. A computer system accesses typed object parameters corresponding to a typed object. The typed object is annotated with one or one more message contract attributes of a message contract model defining a mapping between typed object parameters and corresponding SOAP elements. The computer system utilizes the message contract attributes to map the typed object parameters into a SOAP element and inserts the SOAP element into a SOAP envelope. A receiving computer system accessing the SOAP element and utilizes the message contract attributes to map the SOAP element back into the typed object parameters.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 3, 2004Publication date: June 8, 2006Applicant: Microsoft CorporationInventors: Erik Christensen, Vaithiakingam Balayoghan, Michael Coulson, Ryan Sturgell, Natasha Jethanandani, Michael Marucheck, Douglas Purdy, Kenneth Wolf, Michael Vernal, Stefan Pharies, David Wortendyke

Publication number: 20060047679Abstract: Serialization and deserialization using data contracts. The data contract specifies data types that are serialized and deserialized for data objects that are associated with the data contract. During serialization, the data contract associated with the data object is identified. Then, the data fields that correspond to those specified data field types are extracted from the data object and serialized into a serialization format. During deserialization, the serialization mechanism receives a serialized data structure having a particular serialization format. A data contract is then identified as being associated with the serialized data structure. After deserialization of the serialized data structure into abstract data, a corresponding data object is populated with data fields that correspond only with those data field types specified in the data contract. Accordingly, data abstraction is enabled while serializing and deserializing.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 25, 2004Publication date: March 2, 2006Inventors: Douglas Purdy, Sowmyanarayanan Srinivasan, Bradford Lovering, Donald Box, Gopala Kakivaya, Natasha Jethanandani, Stefan Pharies, Stephen Swartz, Steven Lucco

Publication number: 20050235009Abstract: A versionable schema is both backward-compatible and forward-compatible. Such a schema is able to receive data expected by multiple versions of the schema; tolerates the absence of optional data, in accordance with other versions, and accept wildcard data in accordance with still further versions. Thus, a message or message may be validated by the versionable schema.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 31, 2004Publication date: October 20, 2005Inventors: Douglas Purdy, Natasha Jethanandani, Sowmy Srinivasan, Stefan Pharies

Publication number: 20050097504Abstract: An object instance is serialized to a serial format, such as an extensible Markup Language (XML) document, based on a mapping between an arbitrary annotated source code file and a schema. The arbitrary annotated source code contains at least one programming type that describes a shape of an object instance and the schema describes a format of a document having a serial format. The mapping defines a correspondence between the shape of the object instance and the format of the document having the serial format. Subsequently, an object instance is converted to the serial format by converting public properties, public fields and method parameters of the object instance to a document having the serial format based on the mapping. Once the mapping is defined, an XML document can also be converted to an object instance based on the mapping.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 10, 2004Publication date: May 5, 2005Applicant: Microsoft CorporationInventors: Keith Ballinger, Erik Christensen, Stefan Pharies
