I'm new to Silverlight, haven't done any project yet. My company is going to start a project which should be 100% silverlight and ria services. Though I've read a book on sl, without some practical experience, I still have some questions left. Hope I can find help here :)
Here are my questions.
The project we are going to build needs both authentication and authorization. I can use Asp.Net membership provider, but there's a problem. During authentication process (Login), the user should provide username, password and temporary pin code. As far as I know, Membership provider doesn't support authentication with more than 2 params(username and password). Is there any workaround on this problem? Maybe I can create my own MembershipProvider? Will this solve the problem?
We plan to use WCF Duplex services and RIA services in a single silverlight application. We want to use duplex services to let a user know when a transaction status changes. What's your experience with this? Is duplex services reliable or we should go the old way, checking the transaction status in interval?
- The application should run inside the browser and outside too. My question is if it's possible to run sl app as OOB when we want to use authentication/authorization + RIA Services + Duplex Services? Should we wait somekind of problem here?
I think that's it for now. Your help is much appreciated.
