Windows Azure Code Samples Voting

Hello current and future Windows Azure developers, do you have an idea that you want to implement in a Windows Azure application, but could use the help of a code sample to complete your learning?

We want to help you create great applications by providing a comprehensive list of code samples. To do this, we need your help to decide where our resources should be applied when creating the code samples.

Please review the list below of possible code samples and vote on the samples that interest you, or you can add one of your own.
Thank you,
David Murray [Windows Azure iX MSFT]

I need a code sample for ...

You've used all your votes and won't be able to post a new idea, but you can still search and comment on existing ideas.

There are two ways to get more votes:

  • When an admin closes an idea you've voted on, you'll get your votes back from that idea.
  • You can remove your votes from an open idea you support.
  • To see ideas you have already voted on, select the "My feedback" filter and select "My open ideas".
(thinking…)

Enter your idea and we'll search to see if someone has already suggested it.

If a similar idea already exists, you can vote and comment on it.

If it doesn't exist, you can post your idea so others can vote on it.

Enter your idea and we'll search to see if someone has already suggested it.

  1. ContinuationTokens in TableStorageClient BeginExecuteQuerySegmented

    I need to use continuation tokens in BeginExecuteQuerySegmented and have no idea how to implement this.

    Ideally I'd like to hook this up to TPL or TPL Dataflow so I can process entries as they are read in in batches of 100.

    Here is what I have on StackOverflow

    • Azure InstanceInput endpoint usage

      Can you please post a sample code for using InstanceInput endpoints?
      I used the below configuration in a worker role where a sample WCF service listens at port 8080.

      <Endpoints>
      <InstanceInputEndpoint name="InstanceAccess" protocol="tcp" localPort="8080">
      <AllocatePublicPortFrom>
      <FixedPortRange max="10105" min="10101" />
      </AllocatePublicPortFrom>
      </InstanceInputEndpoint>
      </Endpoints>

      But I was not able to access this WCF service from an external consumer using any of the ports 10101 to 10105. Should we use the public DNS name of the Azure service along with the public ports in the give range?

      Also, I was not able to access this endpoint details from within the worker role OnStart()…

                    I want to generate Deepzoom images of hi resolution images. However, I want these to be stored in a private blob container. Is there a way to do this and still use these files in a silverlight pivot viewer?

                                    • Implementing keep-alive while working with WCF services that take more than 1 minute to respond

                                      Many WCF services takes more than 1 minute to process the request and Azure NLB is closing the idle connections after 1 min. We would need a way to increase NLB timeout or a sample to implement Keep-Alive connection.
