I'm curious how SPDY should be implemented when using an ASP.NET MVC application. As far as I know it is not the case by now, but should I wait for an updated MVC (5), new IIS-server, upgraded .net-framework, or something else?
My understanding of this question is "can I use spdy with my IIS based server and .net application".
As I understand it, IIS would need to implement the protocol, and/or a third party would need to offer a module for IIS that implements this. So far, I have not found either of these, but will update my answer if I do.

Does someone know how to force HTTPS in MVC Vnext?
I have read a couple of articles about forcing HTTPS in MVC, but in the new version VNext, alot of things have changed so they are all kinda deprecated so im pretty lost right now
That part hasn't changed much. You can use the same RequireHttpsAttribute
I am faced with a project that uses custom authentication via a WCF service that returns a set of claims based on some data identifying a user, close to user name and password. Then on top of this, I have a custom STS, derived from Microsoft.IdentityModel.SecurityTokenService, that resides in an ASP.NET web site project. This project looks like it was created with the VS2010 template, and not carefully had-crafted.
My gut feeling, and lots of on-line advice tell me that this web site STS project is very far from production ready. I am now looking for an MVC based STS that I can use in anticipation of being production ready. TinkTecture's IdentityServer looks promising, but it is so much more than simply implementing a custom derivation of SecurityTokenService, I have no idea where to start. If somebody could steer me toward an open project or walk-through that does this, or offer some guidance as to where and how I can start extending or modifying Identity Server, that would be great.
Have you looked at Thinktecture.IdentityServer v3? I'm at the moment using it and very simple to use.
It is still in Beta but RTM will be available soon. It has good documentation and samples too.

Update:
Identity Server 4 is also available. It supports cross-platform deployment with .NET Core.

Have you looked at the MSDN article by Michele Leroux Bustamante?
It's a little old and based on WCF, but it has code accompanying it.
Building A Custom Security Token Service
If you want ASP.NET based example, Microsoft published this:
ASP.NET Security Token Service Web Site
There's also this STS project on CodePlex.
I was wondering if somebody could answer my questions as I have not used JTAPI before.
I am working on a project where the requirement is to click a link on the MVC website and integrate the call to AVAYA phone (i.e. make phone call using handset via the website)
I have also looked at the Microsoft TAPI but looks like there is no integration with Avaya available with TAPI.
Does anybody know how can I use JTAPI with .Net MVC ? I was assuming it would be an API which I can call from my website but it looks more complicated then it sounds.
Please suggest :)
You may use Avaya DMCC. It has an implementation for .NET
But beware the Avaya licensing policy! DMCC may require extra licenses.
To use JTAPI from ASP.NET you have to use Java classes from .NET
Can you use Java libraries in a VB.net program?
http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/13549/Using-Java-Classes-in-your-NET-Application
I would suggest create an Applet in JTAPI and then integrate in any webapplication whether php,.net I recently did the same thing for my PHP web application.
As #Krishna said with an Applet you could designe your soluciĆ³n, designe that i used to do... Buut now and Day Applets have less support over browsers and they have be come a problem than a solution. The way that i found to solve this issue was use HTML5 with Websocket. In this way i create a Windows Service or daemon (for Linux) to handle JTapi session and create a websocket server Layer, and implement the websocket to create the view int he Asp.net view.
Avaya AES does expose a basic web api providing some basic functionalities which you can call directly from your MVC application, but if you need something more advance, then arguably the best solution would be to build a small Java servlet which you will host on something like Tomcat or JBoss which will expose a SOAP or REST API, which you can call from your MVC app.
I am new to blackberry app development and was wondering if someone could point me in the right direction(and may be a sample application) of how to consume web service in native apps. I'm using Blackberry JDE plugin for Eclipse.
I am able to consume a restful webservice, but now I want to consume a SOAP service. I am new to eclipse , so I would require in detail information.
Thanks,
I followed this none-ksoap2 route and it worked well for me:
http://www.johnwargo.com/index.php/blackberry/dbja2.html
This series of articles explains how to utilise the support the BlackBerry Platform has built in for JSR 172, the J2ME Web Services Specification, by creating a java stub class through the use of a utility in the Sun Java Wireless Toolkit for CLDC and the wsdl for your web service.
The articles give a very thorough and detailed explanation of the steps required to achieve the objective, so I would not wish to repeat them here in full, nor paraphrase them at the risk of my debased shorter version being quoted later. I understand the risk of answering in this way, and I realise that my short explanation above will in no way compensate should the original articles disappear from the internet.
Hey thanks for all the help. Figured it out. The problem was wcf service. When I tried with a simple web service(.asmx), it worked like charm and all the stubs were generated correctly. Probably wcf uses Soap 1.2 default and asmx service SOAP 1.1.
I even tried using KSOAP2 for calling wcf service with little success. Again switching back to asmx instead of wcf, solved the issue.
Now I have problem of plenty, which method to use(KSOAP or Stub) :)
I am all for non KSOAP method, but the only thing that is stopping me is I have to generated stub files everytime a introduce a new method.
Anyways +1 for all the help
As a dev team, we're looking to switch to asp.net MVC and I've heard rumors about IIS 6 not being able to support all of the MVC functionality. Is this true? Is there any official set of functionality supported in IIS 7 vs IIS 6? Should we completely avoid running it on IIS6?
You do not loose any functionality of ASP.Net MVC; however, you have one of two options. You can either define an extension on your URL's which will allow you to set up mapping. So for example:
www.example.com/books/computer/list
might become:
www.example.com/books.mvc/computer/list
You can use any extension you want so long as you map to ASP.Net. I am currently using .aspx which meant I could avoid changing IIS configuration at the sacrifice of having extensionless URLs.
The other option as mentioned is using a wild card mapping. What this does is route all requests to ASP.Net. Even requests for static content such as images. This does have a negative effect on performance that you will want to measure. There are ways around this, I believe such as placing all your content in a specific virtual directory that you turn off the wild card mapping for, but I haven't fully explored that option.
I think the issue with IIS6 is extensionless URLs that you can easily achieve by adding a wildcard ISAPI map in IIS configuration.
So, no. While I love IIS7 integrated mode and strongly recommend using it, you won't lose functionality using it. I've deployed several ASP.NET MVC 1.0 projects on Windows Server 2003/IIS6.
Url rewriting can help you to solve the problem. I've implemented solution allowing to deploy MVC application at any IIS version even when virtual hosting is used.
