DIME - Alive or Dead?

Hello,

I was looking into the WSE 2.0 and noticed DIME which really peeked my
interest. Is DIME worth looking at (will it be enhanced, industry supported,
etc) or should I stick with sending large binaries as base64?

thanks...

Take a look at - pretty much it seems to me DIME is dead and ws-attachment
came to nothing. Though I liked it!

Hi, I'm not sure if this is the right place for my question, but I am having some problems with webservices. I am trying to use classic asp to consume a webservice that requires DIME messages for input. The dime messages contain xml data and sometimes jpeg images. My problem is to generate the DIME messages. I can generate xml using my asp page, the only problem is to transform this into a DIME message. Are there any (custom)...

Someone here wrote that MS has dropped its commitment to DIME (see link below). I could not find any other info on this from googling around. Has MS made this public anywhere? Links would be appreaciated. And, if DIME is to be dropped, what will be used instead for file attachments with SOAP? I know about encoding everything in base64 but this is a very inneficient method for large attachments. ...

Hi, I have a situation where I need to return bulky PDF files from a web service method. The easiest way to do this is return base64 encoded strings. But as the PDF files are bulky this would mean that for each web method call the file would have to be loaded into memory for encoding and returning. This will easily turn out to be a performance bottleneck if multiple calls are being made to the web method.

Hi all, I have been trying to find a way to send a PDF from my web service. I have had the idea of sending back a byte array, but to be honest the efficiency issue is there and i would like to find another route if possible. I have started to read bits and pieces about DIME and WSE but what i need to know is can i utilise this technology cross platform?? For instance someone who will consume this web service is coding in some form of...

Following what is found out at http://www.gotdotnet.com/team/xml_wsspecs/dime/WSDL-Extension-for-DIME.htm for composing my WSDL, when using the wsdl.exe, I can't seem to get around the error message: "Error: one or more required WSDL extension elements were ignored. Errors were encountered. Review generated source comments for more details." More specifically, for each of the binding places (inside wsdl:output/wsdl:input) where I use:

Does anyone know if DIME is available for Visual Studio.NET 2005? I have Visual Studio.NET 2003 and I installed the Web Services Extension pack 2.0 in order that I could use DIME. Seems to work well. I'll probably getting VS.NET 2005 soon, which uses Extension pack 3.0. I know this extension pack includes MTOM - supposed to be DIME's successor - but does it also include DIME? Anyone know?

Hi there, This is actually (probably) a C# or .NET issue. I'm working on an VS 2005 AddIn and at one point I'm caching all "EnvDTE80.ErrorItem" objects that result from compiling one or more projects in an arbitrary solution (which my own code carries out). These objects simply store each warning, error or other message as seen in the "Error List" window in VS (when you build a solution). Later on, when I attempt to look at the...

I have never sent attachment with webservices. Yesterday I got the challenge to redesign my solution that sends large XML structures to a Java webservice. The reason was that the Java SOAP implementation had problems consuming too large files that way. They encountered a memory leak in the parser that made the whole mainframe environment to crash! So the decided they should go for DIME attachments instead. I use VB.Net in VS2005.

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it.

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
