These days, I was looking to collect some information for configuring multiple instances of EP on a single server. e.g. running DEV and TEST EP on the same box as many clients dont have the bandwidth or budget for having 2 separate servers for both. Here’s a great piece of information from Mey MeenakshiSundaram about running multiple instances of EP on the same server. Thanks Mey for the great post. It’s written for Dynamics AX 4.0 but I believe this should work for Dynamics AX 2009 as well.

Dear Readers,

This year started with a busy note for me both professionally and personally. At the work side, saw lot of changes in processes, teams, had to work round the clock for troubleshooting EP issues, Cluster and database troubleshooting, performance issues. Couple of our mission critical projects running on a 24 * 7 model saw unplanned downtime. On personal front busy with mortgaging for new house and a visit to pilgrimage shrine is coming up. I will try to get some intersesting blog posts in the coming weeks.

Keep on reading and welcome all your suggestions and advises. Thanks to all of you.

Regards,
Dilip

In the upcoming 4.0 version of C# the language now supports optional parameters – just like X++. The following is a valid method declaration in both languages:

There are a few differences between the languages with regards to optional parameters:

Named parameters

In X++ you can only omit optional parameters starting from the last parameter. C# makes it possible to omit any optional parameter. For example:

will call foo(5, 0, 1000).

prmIsDefault

C# doesn’t provide a way to determine, if a parameter was omitted by the caller, or the caller passed in a value identical to the default value. In X++ the prmIsDefault() method can be used to determine this. However, the use cases for this method are rare – and often fragile. For example, consider this X++ class:

Now someone comes along and extends the class:
Can you see the problem? This following code will never call the complex calculation (which probably was the intention):
To solve the problem MyClass needs to be implemented as:

Which really is terrible, as the implementation of the derived class depends on the implementation of the base class. This is bound to break eventually. Add a few more optional parameters and a few more levels of depth in the class hierarchy, and you’ll have a real nightmare. My recommendation is to only use prmIsDefault() in private methods – as they can’t be overridden. In C# you can easy live without this method, as you can achieve the same in a more robust manner using method overloading:

<humor>It is a good thing we solved the dangling semicolon issue – otherwise it would haunt the C# community in a not too distant future.</humor>
