OWIN and Katana

This post illustrates the compatibility of OWIN with the existing technologies

MVC5 requires ASP.NET/IIS but can co-exist with OWIN components. MVC is tightly coupled to ASP.NET, hence not standalone with respect to OWIN
WebApi is fully OWIN compatible

In order to find out where your app is loaded from, use

“AppDomain.CurrentDomain.SetupInformation.ApplicationBase”

The stage markers apply to OwinHttpModule, not OwinHttpHandler

Handling exceptions in the Executor service threads in Java

Introduction This is a continuation post on the exception handling strategies in the threads in Java. For Introduction, please read this post The second post is available here This post addresses the problem statement "How to use the exception handlers in the threads spawned by the Executor Service in Java?" Not all times, we will be using Thread classes to run our threads because we have to manage a lot of the underlying logic for managing threads. There is ExecutorService in Java which comes to the rescue for the above problem. In the previous posts, we have discussed on how to handle the exceptions in plain threads. However, when using executor service, we do not create / manage threads, so how do we handle exception in this case. We have a ThreadFactory as an argument which can be used to customize the way threads are created for use within the ExecutorService . The below snippet of code leverages this feature to illustrate the exception handling, wherein we creat...
