It's been a while, but I've been busy doing a lot of XRM stuff.

I wanted to share this piece of code with you since it has been a major headache of mine for a long time in a project, I've searched high and low and couldn't figure it out, so if it's any help to you, please leave me a comment.

It's all about changing activityparties in a meeting. Why would you that? Well if you've searched for this you probably have the reason yourself.

 private static List<ActivityParty> ActivityParties(XrmServiceContext xrm, Appointment appointment, string currentuserid)
        {
            string activityid = string.Empty;

            var reqAttendees = xrm.ActivityPartySet.Where(ap => ap.ActivityId.Id == appointment.ActivityId);
            List<ActivityParty> newRec = new List<ActivityParty>();
            foreach (var party in reqAttendees)
            {
                activityid = party.ActivityPartyId.ToString();
                var pUser = new EntityReference("systemuser", new Guid(currentuserid));
                if (party.PartyId.Id.ToString().ToLower() != pUser.Id.ToString().ToLower())
                {
                    ActivityParty reqNewAttendees = new ActivityParty { PartyId = new EntityReference("systemuser", party.PartyId.Id) };
                    newRec.Add(reqNewAttendees);
                }
            }
            return newRec;
        }

Happy coding! :D

I'm still in the middle of creating my HyperV monitor for WP7 and other mobile devices.

you can follow my progress at http://hyperphone7.com

I need some input though, and I hope you can help me out.

Would you like to be able to control and view the status on an external webpage, or would you like to keep it internally, and just expose the webservice to the outside world for external monitoring when not in house.

Please add comments :)

Take a look at the video [View:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UABgObGTk6o]

It will be made available for free on the Windows Phone Marketplace very soon.

Great job guys! :)

That's a great achievement and Morten is really setting the scene in Denmark regarding xbox 360 community, competitions, tournaments and so on.

Morten is the only XBOX MVP in Denmark, and truely a great person to know.

Congratz Morten, you deserve it! :)

I wanted to display the current trends on a page or wherever so I decided to give it a go with Linq to JSON, featured in JSON.NET.

I ran into some problems since the property in the json post is changing all the time so I don't have a static property to call in my code.

The easiest way that I found, was to replace the datetime tag with some static text and use that in my LINQ query.

So here goes:

using System;
using System.IO;
using System.Linq;
using System.Net;
using Newtonsoft.Json.Linq;

namespace TwitterCmd
{
  class Program
  {
    static void Main(string[] args)
    {
      string input = GetInput();
      string thisYear = DateTime.Now.Year.ToString();
      string date = input.Substring(input.IndexOf(thisYear), 19);
      input = input.Replace(date, "herewasdate");
      JObject trends = JObject.Parse(input);
      var TwitterTrends = from t in trends["trends"]["herewasdate"]
                          select t.Value<string>("name");
      foreach (var twitterTrend in TwitterTrends)
      {
        Console.WriteLine(twitterTrend);
      }
      Console.ReadLine();
    }

    private static string GetInput()
    {
      WebRequest request = WebRequest.Create("http://search.twitter.com/trends/current.json");
      request.Credentials = CredentialCache.DefaultCredentials;
      HttpWebResponse response = (HttpWebResponse)request.GetResponse();
      Stream dataStream = response.GetResponseStream();
      StreamReader reader = new StreamReader(dataStream);
      string input = reader.ReadToEnd();
      reader.Close();
      dataStream.Close();
      response.Close();
      return input;
    }
  }
}

This will list the current trends from Twitter.

Let me know if you know the way of querying a property that is ever changing! :)

go have a look if you want to know how to get build info, e.g. if you want to send it on to your build bunny (NabazTag), as we did ;)

happy reading!

Happy new year, hope you all had a great new years eve.!

Did you know that there's a GodMode in the 2 new OS'es from Microsoft?

If you do, don't bother reading more but if you don't... Read on!

Create a new folder and rename it to GodMode.{ED7BA470-8E54-465E-825C-99712043E01C}

Pretty simple and useful :)

Over and out :)

Thought I would post some fun.
