Hi Albert, yes, I'm currently in discussion with BorgWorX who owned the rights of the older source code of Ajax.NET. The thing is that I'd like to get a confirmation first that AjaxPro is not the same source code than Ajax.NET.
Fromdifferent developers using AjaxPro (and have used Ajax.NET before) I got already a feedback that AjaxPro doesn't include source code of Ajax.NET. AjaxPro is a totaly different library with great features missed in Ajax.NET: - AjaxPro includes converters to create the corresponding .NET object from a JSON string, this feature was completly missing in Ajax.NET and is one of the top 10 features of AjaxPro. Ajax.NET only allows to get string, int or bool as simple data type. AjaxPro can use i.e. client-side created DataSet as value for an AjaxMethod argument. - New feature: JSON parser with IJavaScriptObjects like array, object, number, boolean, string and null. In Ajax.NET there was no built-in parser. - AjaxPro includes client-side JavaScript classes that simulate .NET data types. There are different classes like Ajax.Web.DataSet, DataTable, NameValueCollection, Image, Hashtable available. - Client-side use of namespaces to seperate JavaScript code from other libraries/frameworks. - AjaxPro is working on all common web browser including mobile devices Pocket PC 2002/2003 and Windows Mobile 5. Ajax.NET was only working on IE 6 and Firefox. - The client-side JavaScript files are completly re-written using OO-styled classes and methods. AjaxPro includes some nice prototype functions to add .NET known methods and missing JavaScript functions (for older web browsers), event handling and browser independent functions to work with several DHTML features. - IFrame XMLHttpRequest proxy which is running if ActiveX are disabled in Internet Explorer. This feature enabled a lot of web browsers to work with AjaxPro. - NamespaceMappings, server-side caching using attributes, IAsyncRequest operations to prevent thread pool usage, Session and Cache support (HttpContext), compression of JSON response, prevent properties/fields to be serialized to JSON using an attribute. - Allow static methods to be invoked to speed up reflection code. - Client-side caching of JavaScript files and on-the-fly generated proxy files which will reduce the traffic needed for AjaxPro. - Default ASP.NET security support with AuthenticationService to enable forms authentication and permission control of method invocation. - Exception (error) handling on server-side and client-side code. - Client-side AJAX request cache to run more than 2 concurrent requests (will be invoked if one line is free); timeout and InetAPI error handling; callbacks for onError, onTimeout, onLoading. - Converters: Bitmap, DataRowView, DataView, Enums, Guid, IDictionary, IEnumerable, IList, IJavaScriptObjects, ProfileBase, XmlNode and XmlDocument; including generic data types - Enum support on client-side JavaScript code, RegisterEnumForAjax. - .NET 2.0 WebEvent managment to log errors in event log. - Serialize any JSON request into an XmlDocument and back will enable storing as xml files on web server. So, please be patient... and have a look at http://weblogs.asp.net/mschwarz/ or this Google group.
