I had a requirement to map a buyer only if it was the same buyer throughout the entire document. The reason for this was that in the source document the buyer was defined in a sub sub sub node of a document and in the destination it occurred only once. So I ended up with several choices. Only map the...

In case this helps someone track down a silly little defect… I have an orchestration that uses an outbound map on a send port. The map had a script shape that had incorrect xslt. Simply running the Test Map would have caught this one and saved me some time. The full detail of the Exception...

I am busy creating schema's and exposing them as a web service. I always generate a client and try to post some messages and this time I was again surprised by BizTalk. (or should I say XML). When creating a schema you can chose several types for an element. Some of these are xs:int and xs:integer...

In a BizTalk 2006r2 solution, we encountered a build issue with BizTalk where a map that referenced a particular schema was causing BizTalk to fail to build. The symptom was that Visual Studio would continually build until it ran out of memory. The cause of the issue was tracked down to a particular...

BizTalk integration with SharePoint is … interesting. Using the Add Generated Items… Consume WCF service might result in a proxy that will not build due to a bad reference. The proxy file Lists_schemas_microsoft_com_sharepoint_soap.xsd contains the bad reference. The reference in particular is...

Just some notes on connecting BizTalk to SharePoint’s /_vti_bin/lists.asmx">http://<site>/_vti_bin/lists.asmx webservice. After using Add Generated Items –> Consume WCF Service to create the proxy and binding you might find that when calling the service a transport level...

Well if you ever end up like me with a XSD that has about a zillion includes ( schemaLocation ), maybe this tool is something for you. It is a pretty simple tool. You give it an XSD, and it will download all files that are referenced to your local system. It will parse the file names a bit and set them...

Via a blog post it came to my attention that the BizTalk user groups of Australia and New Zealand organise a combined event around BizTalk Server 2010. It is called BizTalk Saturday . It looks like a very nice event, so if your in the neighbourhood you should attend. One of the presentations I found...

We all know that using XSLT inside a map can be very usefull to do stuff that's very hard to do with the mapper itself. Sometimes using XSLT it is the only way things can be done. I find myself struggeling each time to figure out how specific tasks work with XSLT. That's why I write this post...

Soms google je wat en kom je een oude maar zeer interessante blogposting tegen. In dit artikel wil ik een aantal van deze blogpostings/blogposters/artikelen aanstippen. Maxime Labelle...

I had a BizTalk Webservice that was generated by the WebService Wizard from BizTalk. When I exported the MSI the WebDirectory came along. I thought this webdirectory was added during the export. But this is not the case. The WebService Wizard adds the files as a resource to your BizTalk Application....

When developing a custom PipelineComponent I spend quite a while overlooking the obvious. For all those who also overlook this: When writing BAM from a PipelineComponent it is a good practice to use the PipelineContext.GetEventStream() method to get the BAM eventstream. This way your BAM events will...

The guys from the well known BizTalk Deployment Framework have been working very hard lately.
