MSDN Architecture Webcast: Converting Java Applications to .NET Using J#: A Technical Case Study - Level 200
Tuesday, August 10, 2004
11:00 AM-12:30 PM Pacific Time
Brent Carlson , VP of Technology and Co-founder , LogicLibrary
LogicLibrary saw a unique opportunity to expand market share by producing a fully .NET-compliant version of their Logidex solution using the J# compiler for .NET and the Struts Framework to migrate from the original J2EE environment. Logidex is an enterprise cataloging system for software development assets that supports both a thin-client interface as well as tightly-integrated client-side IDE add-ins via a SOAP interface. Architects and developers will learn effective strategies for migrating a solution from J2EE to .NET, using J# and the Struts Framework, and learn about working with JSPs and ASPs, ODBC and ADO.NET.

MSDN Architecture Webcast: Software Reuse Best Practices - Level 200
Thursday, August 26, 2004
11:00 AM-12:30 PM Pacific Time
Brent Carlson , VP of Technology and Co-founder , LogicLibrary
Numerous approaches to designing and developing reusable software components and modules have been created. However, the goal of successful software reuse has remained elusive. It is now time for enterprises to revisit this topic. Reusable solutions are now possible using .NET and its robust component architecture, plus support from Microsoft’s Platform Architectural Guidance (PAG) Group in the form of reusable application blocks and Enterprise Solution Patterns. In this session, architects and developers will learn about real-life software reuse initiatives and what makes them successful. Reusable assets delivered to Visual Studio .NET via LogicLibrary Logidex will also be demonstrated.
