Release Preview

Overview

Deployment package for BizTalk.Factory Runtime, which is part of the larger BizTalk.Factory SDK. This package is made of the following .NET components:

• Be.Stateless.Extensions, which provides general purpose utility classes and extension methods for various .NET types;

• Be.Stateless.Reflection, which provides assembly loader and reflection helper methods for general purpose .NET development that eases the rare occasions on which you have no other choice than to invoke methods via reflection or tap into the assembly loading process;

• Be.Stateless.Runtime, which provides service injection at startup time of any .NET Framework managed process and caching abstractions;

• Be.Stateless.Security, which provides a security helper class allowing to impersonate a Windows identity when invoking a .NET delegate;

• Be.Stateless.Stream, which provides a stream class library for general purpose .NET development;

• Be.Stateless.Xml, which provides an XML class library for general purpose .NET development;

• Be.Stateless.BizTalk.Abstractions, which provides various abstractions over Microsoft BizTalk Server®’s message contexts and context properties;

• Be.Stateless.BizTalk.Messaging, which provides a pipeline-centric messaging class library for general purpose Microsoft BizTalk Server® development;

• Be.Stateless.BizTalk.Pipeline.MicroComponents, which provides various general purpose micro components meant to be run by the BizTalk.Factory’s MicroPipelineComponent —see Be.Stateless.BizTalk.Pipeline.Components, Be.Stateless.BizTalk.Pipelines, Be.Stateless.BizTalk.Dsl.Pipeline, and Be.Stateless.BizTalk.Dsl.Binding for more information about micro pipelines;

• Be.Stateless.BizTalk.ServiceModel, which provides both WCF behavior extensions dedicated to Microsoft BizTalk Server®, and utility classes allowing to compose WCF relays using Microsoft BizTalk Server® schema and map artifacts;

• Be.Stateless.BizTalk.Settings, which provides a streamlined API over the native, awkward to use, Microsoft BizTalk Server® Enterprise Single Sign-On API, the main purpose of which is to allow to easily store Microsoft BizTalk Server® dynamic configuration settings right into SSO configuration stores instead of configuration files scattered across servers;

• Be.Stateless.BizTalk.Stream, which provides a stream class library for general purpose Microsoft BizTalk Server® development;

• Be.Stateless.BizTalk.Transform.ExtensionObjects, which provides a transform class library for general purpose Microsoft BizTalk Server® development.;

• Be.Stateless.BizTalk.XLang, which provides an orchestration-centric messaging class library for general purpose Microsoft BizTalk Server® development;

• Be.Stateless.BizTalk.Xml, which essentially is an XML class library for general purpose Microsoft BizTalk Server® development;

• Be.Stateless.BizTalk.Factory.Logging, which is a BizTalk.Factory Runtime’s private component —i.e. not published as a NuGet package— that provides the LoggingConfigurationLoader service class which, once registered as an IStartupService, will ensure that log4net configuration is loaded when a Microsoft BizTalk Server® Host Instance starts.

Remark The assemblies being named Be.Stateless.BizTalk.* are assemblies depending on and made up for Microsoft BizTalk Server® and currently target the .NET Framework 4.8. The other assemblies are not tied to Microsoft BizTalk Server® and currently target multiple frameworks: .NET Standard 2.0, .NET Core 3.1, and .NET Framework 4.8.
