Excel using WSIT - Metro and .NET interoperability sample

If you attended JavaOne 2007 or any other conference afterwards where Metro (JAX-WS + WSIT/Tango) team presented, then you've probably seen this demo. The demo shows an Excel 2007 spreadsheet invoking a Secure and Reliable endpoint deployed on GlassFish. Today, I'm announcing the availability of the WSIT endpoint and Excel client code with full instructions to build, deploy and run the sample. Metro Release Candidate 1 was announced recently and is integrated in GlassFish RC4. You can learn more about .NET interoperability aspects of Metro by watching this deep dive interview or reading this 26-page article.

The source code for this sample is available in "wsit/wsit/samples/excelclient"
directory. It can be checked out using the command:

A compressed bundle of the sample is available
here.

Running the demo involves an extensive setup for .NET client. Please make
sure to review the
software requirements before proceeding with the installation.
