ADC SoundBytes: Instrumentation in .NET

  • Article

After our first pilot SoundByte on Silverlight 2 by Chris Barker was a great success, we’ve started scheduling more in – the first of which is below. SoundBytes are quite a different offering to the usual ADC service, so if you have any feedback on how we’re running them we’d love to hear – just pass on your thoughts to your ADC.

ADC SoundBytes: Instrumentation in .NET

 “Instrumentation in .NET”, will be run on Friday 6th March 2009 from 11:00 – 12:00 GMT, and will be presented by Morgan Skinner. The session is charged at the rate of 1 hour from your ADC contract per attendee. If you require further information on this subject after the event, you can of course engage with the ADC team as usual to setup a suitable session.

SoundBytes are short, focused, technical sessions aimed at developers and architects, delivered by an Application Development Consultant over Live Meeting. Attendees will be given time to ask questions, and receive a copy of the material presented in the session.

Abstract

Did you know that the System.Diagnostics namespace was revamped in .NET 2.0? Are you aware of the excellent tracing facilities that are available within the .NET framework? Do you know how to easily add performance counters into an application, and how to do this with the least amount of trouble? And do you know that there are tools available with the .NET framework that allow you to visualise and correlate an end to end trace over WCF? If not then this is the session for you. Morgan will show how the classes within the System.Diagnostics namespace can be used to instrument your application and how to implement method entry/exit logging with the minimum of code. This session will also be useful if you are using a third party logging framework as some of the principles described can be used however you expose logging data.
