Is there available an URL to a WSDL document which describes the icCube XMLA services? How to access them and how to use its methods?
Thanks in advance!
I'd go for an existing XMLA library instead of a low level one. For example Olap4J in Java or ADOMD.NET in .NET.
In case you really want to go the hard way, you can use this wdsl done some years ago.

My Grails application uses the dynamic-domain-plugin. This plugin generates domain classes dynamically. Is it possible for the generated classes be in a single "shared class server" and be available across all servers?
If so, can you point me where to look or at least to have an idea on how Java class loading works?
Thanks!
I think you want to make classes available on remote sites. I have detailed how this can work for another question. I think you problem is the same, if not, please comment and I will adapt the answer
I'm implementing a new application in ASP.NET with MVC4. I'd like to use Azure to host my project.
I've already created a cloud, but I have a problem with my datasheet. I'm using a excel file whom calculates some prices. I tryed to use openXML, but it can't recalculate my sheet, so i can't use it.
Then, I was thinking to install Microsoft Excel on my cloud to run my excel file.
Do you have any different ideas? Could my solution work?
Advice against running Office on a server apply doubly to Azure. The short answer is consistently "Don't do it". I replied to a similar question a couple of years ago, and the answer still applies. (Use a native .NET library)
Personally I would avoid this like the plague.
Unless you're doing a crazy amount of calculations in the Excel sheet, it's likely going to be easier to translate the calculation to an asp list or local sql instance than try to get manipulating Excel via Azure asp working.
If you can give details on what happens in the sheet we can probably help to find a way around the problem.
Edit:
It seems like you may be forced to use Excel, if so the following Microsoft KB article has a long list of problems and possible workarounds for manipulating Excel files server side:

I'd like to use WebAPI as my API technology to:
Allow approved companies to enter/retrieve data in my systtem
Create a standard interface for my company's iOS/Android/etc. applications
Does anyone know of best practices for, and mechanisms used to implement, versioning of interfaces. Specifically, I don't want to break backwards compatibility if I make updates to my API. I'd like to know what versioning schemes people use and if WebAPI has any built in mechanisms supporting versioning without the need to set up routes/paths every time a new version is released. Any thoughts would be appreciated.
Update
After performing some research I think I know what I want to do, I'm not sure how to do it. Ideally during content negotiation I would like to use a media type passed by the user to specify which version of the API should be used (rather than hard-coding the URL) and hit the corresponding controller.
If you don't want the version to be included in the Url, the way to go is probably to implement IHttpControllerSelector. This blog post should give you a good starting point: Implementing API versioning in ASP.NET Web API
I recommend you take a look at Peter Williams' series of blog posts on versioning REST services. They explain the what and why. For the how, check out Mike Wasson's tutorial on how to create a custom media formatter.
We are evaluating Windows Workflow Foundation 4 to use in MVC 3 based Web Applications. We would like to create flexible order workflows for different projects.
Does anybody know good information about the general architecture or hands-on-labs for this kind of application?
Some concrete questions would be:
how can you activate a specific controller/action from the workflow?
what is the best way to communicate between the workflow and the web application (events, wcf services, ...)?
This is a nice article on how to start working with WF4 in your ASP.NET MVC app.

Another example with video is at below link. (Note: The code attached in the link might not be executable, but it will give some concepts when you study the code and watch the video)

This link is showing how we can preserve the data between requests using tempdata. Since it is a large explanation, I am not repeating the same again here.
Sadly, the videos for this seem to be down but the docs seem to try to show you a way!

Is there a way in Fogbugz to track cross project cases?
For example, we have a business logic dll that is used in both the winform client as the web client. There was a bug there that needed solving in this dll.
Is there a way to make it so that adding a case to the project of the dll would autoamatically add this to the depending projects?
No there isn't a way to do this. You could either create two cases (one in each project) and link them, or in the upcoming FogBugz 7, you could make a subcase. But the only alternative to do this automatically would be to write something which scanned for these using the API and auto created the linked case.
I think you may get more focussed answers at the Fogbugz Support Forum.
