Web API Sync Calls Best Practice
Using Task<T>.Result is the equivalent of Wait which will perform a synchronous block on the thread. Having async methods on the WebApi and then having all the callers synchronously blocking them effectively makes the WebApi method synchronous. Under load you will deadlock if the number of simultaneous Waits exceeds the...
Is it possible to use WebChannelFactory to make requests to WebAPI/OdataController functions/actions?

So the answer is a resounding YES. I just implemented the service contract and set up Routing to make the service operations work.
ServiceLocatorImplBase.cs not found
asp.net-web-api,web-api,ioc-container,structuremap
Thanks for your reply. Both machines are running integrated mode. The error is really misleading and threw me off to a wrong track. I spent hours trying to find where this ServiceLocatorImplBase.cs resides. I happened to look into the deeply nested inner exceptions, and found that the inner most exception...
Updating Data From MongoDB using Web API
Here is an example of the POST Action. WebApi can perform Model binding so it can take content from the body of the POST action and bind it to a c# entity - in this case the Student object. Here is the content of the Request Body. { "name": "lqbal",...
Is it nessesarry to send credentials on every single request to MVC Web Api?
authentication,asp.net-web-api,web-api
Typically how this works is that the user's authentication token will be stored in a cookie. Once you authenticate the user, you will create a 'session' for them server side. There will be a 'session token' that corresponds with this session. When the user signs in, you will create a...
Error calling HttpClient.GetAsync: The underlying connection was closed
This is wrong, The task is cached so the result can be used later. You are supposed to cache result, not the task. At end of first execution, your HttpClient is closed and when you try to retrieve cached task, it will not work. public class ApiClient : HttpClient {...
Web API HttpClient PutAsync returning Http 404
rest,web-api,asp.net-web-api2,dotnet-httpclient
I got it working by using the FromBody tag in the controller and then wrapping that parameter in the http request body. An important note to is to prefix the parameter with an "=" sign to make sure it was interpreted correctly by the controller. Also I removed the same...
Having trouble with ASP WebAPI 2.2 and IIS 7 with 404 Error Code

Web API 2.2 - ApiController to ODataController (changing Content Type after setting Formatter)
iframe,odata,web-api,content-type
Actually I got it working the way I wanted, more or less, by using OWIN and writing my own middleware. Basically I wanted a way to force a content-type without having to write a specific oData formatter for each instance. So oData could continue to format whichever way it was...
Visual Studio 2013 publishing fails and reports “non-existing” error
c#,asp.net,visual-studio-2013,web-api,publish
Such errors that disappear shortly usually mean there are some issues with project references. Try to search for the errors messages in the Output panel, it might contain something related to missing references. I also have a suspicion that you would see the same behavior if you ReBuild the solution.
Process list of object by type
c#,ninject,web-api,nancy,onion-architecture
Since all you've got is a Type one way or another you're going to have to use Reflection. The other question is how you're accessing the DI container (ninject kernel). You can do something like this: public interface IHandler<T> { void Handle(T obj); } public void UserService : IHandler<User> {...}...
Web API - Set each thread with the HttpRequestMessage id?
c#,.net,multithreading,task-parallel-library,web-api
For context related problems, you can use CallContext.LogicalSetData and CallContext.LogicalGetData, which is merely an IDictionary<string, object> which flows between contexts, and has a copy-on-write (shallow copy) semantics. Since your data is immutable (according to the docs), you can map your correlation id to your threads managed thread id: protected async...
Use JSON data coming from WebApi in AngularJS application
json,angularjs,asp.net-web-api,web-api
I think the transform function gets a json string that you have to deserialize before using it as an object... try sth like: function transformCustomer(data, headersGetter) { var transformed = angular.fromJson(data); console.log(transformed.result[0]); return transformed.result; } Additionally you may look at the docs https://docs.angularjs.org/api/ng/service/$http . There is some code showing how...
Iterate Two Lists and Combine Same Values in New Column
c#,asp.net,.net,database,web-api
You can use a Linq join, this will join the 2 lists together and return the items where METERNUMBER exists in both lists but using the longitude/latitude form as400GPSList: List<getBlinksModel> blinkDetailsListWithGPS = (from b in blinkList join a in as400GPSList on b.METERNUMBER equals a.METERNUMBER select new getBlinksModel { METERNUMBER =...
Autofac - DelegatingHandler (HttpMessageHandler) Registration
c#,web-api,asp.net-web-api2,autofac,ioc-container
It seems that you can't inject HttpMessageHandler in Web API Given the message handler is passed as instance and being initialized once for the entire service. I think it is easier to have user code inject the dependency themselves first and register the instance with http configuration. This allow people...
