Hi,
Build 2:
Everytime when I tried to select any entries under the TEST menu.
Error creating web service reader.
Build 3 :
With this new build, when I tried to use it first time it crashed IE. 
Second time, it took really long time to get the "Latest Comments"
Third time, it came pretty quick. 
Is there any log, which can help you with?
Overally pretty good so far. ![Jig | [Dance]](https://codeproject.global.ssl.fastly.net/script/Forums/Images/jig.gif)

The web service has been up and down this whole week (side effect of the server trouble over the weekend, I guess), so any weirdness can be attributed to that. COM methods are synchronous, so the SearchBar can't process messages - taking a long time with no UI response is what I'd expect in that case. 
Having said that, it shouldn't crash IE. If you can repro the crash, please give me the module name and address of the crash.

While fetching info' from the web service, how about displaying a hour glass or some other way of informing user that somethings happening behind the scenes. Also, just a small doubt, does creating a separate thread (if you havent done already) for checking the webservice will solve the issue.
How does it work behind the firewall.
So far it has worked only once, for Lounge posts. I tried article and it hanged. Also, once I'm switching away from the page from where I clicked, until it completes the process I'm not able to get back to that page.
Whats the role of the exe(com server  ).
Sorry I asked more questions than testing your stuff.
Will give it some more try.
Cheers

Hi Kannan, thanks for taking the time to try out the reader  In the latest build (#4) I've put in a progress indicator along with a Cancel button, so you won't be totally stuck if the reader hangs.
The EXE has the code that communicates with the web service, and it's a COM server that contains a coclass used by the SearchBar. The coclass has methods to return the latest newsflash, articles, etc.
As for working with a firewall, I use the MS XML parser to download the XML feeds, and the parser is supposed to handle all the HTTP communication. I don't have a firewall here so I can't do any testing with that situation, unfortunately.

If anyone want to test the new version of my movie cataloging software just follow this link: http://www.movietrack.0catch.com/MovieTrack3_0.zip
|
|
|
|
|
Im in the process of making something very simular.. Though its web enabled. I just got finished mkaing infinte sub categories, and movies in multiple categories. If your doing the same with categories.. mind showing me your database schema?
|
|
|
|
|
Actually my application is a cataloguer but not as much as a movie record keep. It lists the essential categories eg. action, drama, comedy, but the specialty of the application resides in knowing who has borrowed your movies, who you are going to borrow movies from, etc. Feel free to download it and try it out. I haven't found that many bugs in it recently and hope that it might be bug free but I want to wait at least another month before I throw it on the net, since the previous version out there has SO MANY bugs. I would like to see your app if you have a homepage.

|
|
|
My app isnt even beta yet. Im thinking I'll have something up in a week or so. Though its tough with the holidays coming to find time for anything 
When I do, I'll try to remember to email you a link. It will be in my "things to do list"

So... No support for Exchange accounts?

Oops!
Should read: anything but HTTP accounts (for now at least!) So Exchange is good.

What about Outlook 11? I am an official beta tester for it, but it is not on your list. I should think that you would want that tested as well.
|
|
|
|
|
Hi,
that would be great! I didn't bother adding Outlook 11 since not that many people have it. Or course, I'm sure the object model changed quite a bit so testing/developing would be slower and spread over until mid 2003 when Office 11 is released. But if you're interested, hop in!
I'll update the form on my website so people can select 11 as the version they're using...
