The service has been tested with a C# client auto-generated from WSDL by the wsdl.exe tool. It should work fine from any .NET language.

To my knowledge, none of the Cygwin developers have done this, but we have this report from the mailing list that it can be done this way: Use the impdef program to generate a .def file for the cygwin1.dll (if you build the cygwin dll from source, you will already have a def file) impdef cygwin1.dll > cygwin1.def Create a file "my_crt0.c" with the following contents #include <sys/cygwin.h> #include <stdlib.

This project is my hobby and the last thing I want to do in my spare time was use a language or environment I don't enjoy (I code on Macs during the day, and that's enough pain ^_^). I like C#, and I love Visual Studio. Just about any argument you can create against it can be countered, so don't even try. If you don't like it, you don't have to use it; I know that this is certainly my philosophy with other languages/environments!

Mainsoft for Java EE provides two new project types, Visual C# for Java EE and Visual Basic for Java EE, which are very similar to Visual Studio C# and VB project types. The Mainsoft project types extend multiple functionalities, such as: Build process: The Microsoft compiler creates the MSIL DLL and then invokes the Mainsoft for Java EE compiler. Once the build is complete, Mainsoft for Java EE deploys the final Web Java binary as a WAR (Web Archive) file, onto the Java EE application server.

Unfortunately not, since the Visual Studio Express Edition has a limited support for extensibility that does not match the tight integration needs of Mainsoft for Java EE. You need to install Visual Studio Standard or Professional Edition to use Mainsoft for Java EE.

Mainsoft provides Java EE project templates for Web applications, portal applications, Web services, Web control libraries, console applications, and class libraries. You can use any Java class library in your project and consume Web services. Yes. Mainsoft-based ASP.NET Web applications and Web services are Java EE servlets. Mainsoft ASP.NET project templates include the web.xml servlet deployment descriptor file that you can update to configure your Java EE security settings.

Express Edition products are designed for hobbyists, students, and novice developers. As such, they lack the full breadth of features found in higher-end Visual Studio and SQL Server Editions. They are designed specifically for scenarios common to the hobbyist, student, and novice developer. Each Express Edition includes targeted documentation that will help the beginning programmer quickly learn the concepts required to build more advanced applications.

The Express products are not officially supported. But you may find help by posting your question in the Visual Basic 2008 Express Forum .
