Silly but simple post.

As a follow-up to yesterday’s posting on “StorageException was unhandled” I thought I’d show the wee snippet of code I use to generate queue names:

        عمومی ایستا رشته GetRandomQueueName()
        {
            Guid g;
            g = System.Guid.NewGuid();
            برگشت g.ToString();

        } 

Kind of silly in its simplicity but works well for me and has generated 100’s of safe queue names in the last couple of weeks.

I’ve been playing around with Azure queues for the last week or two and it’s been going smashingly.  Where were these things when I needed them back in 1990?

This article, in particular, is an excellent intro to queues for .NET programmers: http://www.windowsazure.com/en-us/develop/net/how-to-guides/queue-service/.  Using that article, I’ve been able to pull together a really nice bit of client-server logic that is so far reliable and just works with no grief.  Really – where was this stuff in 1990?

I did hit a small stumbling block right out of the gate, گذاشت.   As soon as I strayed from the specifics of the walk-through, I got hit with a StorageException and a “The remote server server returned an error (400) Bad Request.

It turned out that my queue name was off:

When I changed “OneQueueToRuleThemAll” to “onequeuetorulethemall” the StorageException went away.  I haven’t noticed any of the documentation calling this out but it may well do that.

Hope that helps someone.
