A

So this morning we're gonna start off. First, with a demo and trued ship childers style, I'm gonna bring I'm gonna start my my morning off with a demo, so I wanted to bring up on stage someone that spent some time trying to bring the Cloud Foundry experience to Windows users, which is really exciting and I'm excited to see and have someone come and showcase that on stage today, so this morning, I first up I want to bring up Sean Phan Wong she's, a product designer from pivotal to show us how to do remote.

A

Debugging for windows in Cloud Foundry come on up.

A

Thank you good. It's learning.

A

Every time I hear that I had this weird reflex. My windows machine is rebooting, but thank you I mean this is something huge have bringing the windows experience to Cloud Foundry. What made you go down this path, yeah.

B

I think, in the past a few years we have observed that a lot of our customers who is in dire need of Windows support, and they have a lot of network load that mean to push to Cloud Foundry. Initially, we made a lot of like workarounds for them to use whatever like Cloud Foundry could have provided back then, but it became more and more clear to us that we actually need to have a dedicated, a team now to actually help bridge the gap between the windows user word and the Cloud Foundry word that.

A

Is awesome, I know it's been desperately needed for a long time and then today, you're going to show us some new coals, a new yeah. That's that you've developed yeah.

B

So yes, because Windows 2016 just provided the new windows container technology and that really is a game changer for co-founder users. Now, if you push your dotnet app to Cloud Foundry and with Windows 2016 stack, you can leverage a lot more CF features such as this CF SSH into a remote container. That is what I'm going to demo today. Well,.

A

That is super cool, so I'll. Let you go ahead and get started, showing us how to do that cool. So.

B

This is a very this is a simplified and recorded demo of how to remote debug dotnet app that you just pushed it to your remote container. So we will start from publish your app and then like remember to flag it as debug and now you have published and let the building.

B

Now we're going to just move the file to clean directory.

B

Noora Noora is our sample app that we always use for demo purpose and then, while you're caught while you're moving your published application, you should also include the remote debugger provided by Visual Studio in the same folder with that application, and you should make sure that your remote debugger version works with the version of the visual studio of your choice.

B

Okay, now we're going to check some command line from the help documentation. The particular commands that we're using right now is to being able to access a remote application without authentication requirements.

B

So once we checked that now we see f.push with Windows 2016 stack and with our HWC build pack. Now we push it to a remote container.

B

Now it's a staging application.

A

B

Happening here so now, this application is successfully running and let's do a web request to make sure that we could hit the endpoints right now.

B

So now this application is running as we just this all here. This is a fat finger, ignore that one yeah, so, okay, so now the application is running. It says hello, I'm, Norah, running on Norah document, CF, app, calm, and now this is the important part. Now we made CF SH possible and now you can access, establish an SSH connection from your localhost with your remote container and you could do a port forwarding which attach the remote debugger port to your localhost.

B

C

Thanks this is, this is a very. This is a. This is a really looks simple. It's just like a.

B

L L and port forwarding, but what it allows us to do is now you have your remote debugger port attached to your local. Now you can. If something is, is crashing on the container you can deep, you can like add breakpoints and debug it from your visual studio without leaving your local environment. So here we just did a check for the port proved everything is running and then now we just need to attach to a manage the process here using the same port. We just declared.

B

Yes, so now this start point is attached to our process and you must see this loading that is like running running the process for this, for this port forwarding attachment and as it as it runs through we're going to add a breakpoint to our demo app.

B

So here we are now well, while this breakpoint added, let's try to hit the endpoint again.

B

Now boom here, the the script will stop at your breakpoint and from here you can check your you can check your locks and make sure your app is running. So this is a small feature we just provided to the dotnet dotnet developers and the kanji users. It's a very important step for us to breach the for the.net developers, uncuff Andre, to leverage the most important most advanced features in cloud foundry. Absolutely, thank you so much. Thank you.

A

That is a super awesome demo and obviously dotnet is an important work load for a lot of users. So thank you. Yeah.

C

B

Is just a very simple demo this afternoon, at 2:45, Sanjay and Matt from my team is going to give a more in-depth presentation about the newest feature with Windows 2016 stack, please go and check it out. Awesome. Thank you. Thank you. So.
