Creating a multi-shell application in Prism-v2

published 1213 days, 4 hours, 46 minutes ago posted by dschenkelmandschenkelman 1215 days, 1 hour, 56 minutes ago
Thursday, January 28, 2010 12:09:39 PM GMT Tuesday, January 26, 2010 2:59:14 PM GMT
This thread from the Prism forum presents the following question (this is not an actual quote but a summary): Are there any examples with multiple Shell windows, as the Prism documentation mentions? First I re-read this article from the Prism documentation so I could get in the same page as the user. I’m not going to quote it here, but the “Implementing a Shell” section is the one where it is explained. Once I read that, the popular Popup Region from the Prism-v2 RI was out of the table so with Ezequie... (more)

PLINQO future queries are a way to defer query execution until it is needed. The difference between standard IQueryable deferred queries and future queries is that the future queries are batched up and executed in a single round trip to the database. (more)

UK Application Development Consulting - Silverlight, MVVM and Validation Part III

Thursday, January 28, 2010 12:09:39 PM GMT Tuesday, January 26, 2010 2:16:24 PM GMT
I've been working with Silverlight 3 in a number of LoB (Line of Business) scenarios for a while now and I'm consistently running in to a few dead ends with respect to Validation. Given I've posted twice before on Silverlight, MVVM and Validation: Silverlight Validation and ViewModelSilverlight, Validation and MVVM - Part III thought it only right to point out some of the shortcomings of these approaches and Silverlight 3 itself. The problem arises from the exc... (more)

Fabulous Adventures In Coding : Why are unused using directives not a warning? - Eric Lippert

published 1214 days, 3 hours, 22 minutes ago posted by jantujantu 1215 days, 7 hours, 26 minutes ago
Wednesday, January 27, 2010 1:33:06 PM GMT Tuesday, January 26, 2010 9:29:20 AM GMT
As I’ve discussed before, we try to reserve warnings for only those situations where we can say with almost certainty that the code is broken, misleading or useless. One reason for trying to ensure that warnings are not “false positives” is that we don’t ever want to encourage someone to take working, correct code and break it so as to remove the warning. Another is that since many people compile with “warnings are errors” turned on, we do not want to introduce a whole lot of unnecessary build breakages ... (more)

In this post we will build an iPhone-styled Sudoku Game application in Silverlight using nRoute Toolkit. In terms of the architecture we will make use of MVVM design techniques in having separate Model, ViewModel, View plus related Services - and we'll piece them together in a loosely-coupled manner..

State of VS 2010 Performance - Bharry

Wednesday, January 27, 2010 1:33:06 PM GMT Monday, January 25, 2010 10:49:27 AM GMT
Up until Christmas, I was blogging almost every day about the progress we’ve made on addressing the Beta 2 feedback that VS 2010 had significant performance issues.  Since then, our efforts have hardly taken a break.  I saw active investigations all the way up to Christmas eve and then a bit of a lull until Jan 4th when activity resumed in full force. The improvements are so many and so dramatic that I really couldn’t enumerate them all here.  I think the best way to summar... (more)

Quantum Bit Designs » Blog Archive » MVVM – Lambda vs INotifyPropertyChanged vs DependencyObject

published 1214 days, 3 hours, 22 minutes ago posted by KKerrKKerr 1215 days, 11 hours, 10 minutes ago
Wednesday, January 27, 2010 1:33:06 PM GMT Tuesday, January 26, 2010 5:44:44 AM GMT
There have been plenty of complaints about INotifyPropertyChanged and how developers do not like using strings, etc. Last year several bloggers presented type-safe alternatives that used either reflection or lambda expressions. Many are quick to point out the poor performance (same for reflection). Unfortunately ‘poor performance’ says little about usefulness of an implementation. The performance needs to be quantified and compared against all implementations so that ‘poor’ can be put in perspective. Spe... (more)

Measuring the Performance of Asynchronous Controllers « Steve Sanderson’s blog

published 1215 days, 3 hours, 21 minutes ago posted by ali62bali62b 1215 days, 22 hours, 17 minutes ago
Tuesday, January 26, 2010 1:33:47 PM GMT Monday, January 25, 2010 6:38:02 PM GMT
Recently I’ve been working with ASP.NET MVC 2.0’s new asynchronous controllers. The idea with these is that you can split the request handling pipeline into two phases:First, your controller begins one or more external I/O calls (e.g., SQL database calls or web service calls). Without waiting for them to complete, it releases the thread back into the ASP.NET worker thread pool so that it can deal with other requests. Later, when all of the external I/O calls have completed, the underlying ASP.NET platfor... (more)

Agile ADO.Net Persistence Layer Part 4: Writing data access for new data shapes

Tuesday, January 26, 2010 1:33:47 PM GMT Monday, January 25, 2010 4:21:45 PM GMT
I recently decided that I needed to take a fresh look at how to build a persistence architecture that would provide the flexibility of an ORM, that would embrace change instead of resist it (making maintenance code easier), and would use ADO.Net.  I started building from the ground up, threw away any best practices that resulted in friction, and Agile ADO.Net Persistence Layer is the result.  Part 1 in the series can be found here: Agile ADO.Net Persistence Layer Overview.

Code Tech Blog: Using URL Routing in ASP.NET 3.5

published 1215 days, 3 hours, 21 minutes ago posted by hunterz85hunterz85 1215 days, 8 hours, 37 minutes ago
Tuesday, January 26, 2010 1:33:47 PM GMT Tuesday, January 26, 2010 8:18:38 AM GMT
Routing is a technique which enables us to use a descriptive, search engine and human friendly URL’s for ASP.Net application to access a resource. In this technique, the URL will not map to a resource physically. For example, in a normal asp.net application, the URL "http://localhost/Articles/Default.aspx" will actually corresponds to a physical file called Default.aspx under the folder “Articles”. This Article shows Using URL Routing in asp.net. (more)

Use StructureMap and Castle DynamicProxy to easily change the semantics of your code

Tuesday, January 26, 2010 1:33:47 PM GMT Friday, January 22, 2010 11:33:36 AM GMT
In this posting my intentions are to show you how to use Inversion of Control (IoC), with the help of StructureMap, for being able to easily switch the semantics of e.g entities in a model with the change of a few lines in the StructureMap configuration. I will use it to go from plain classes to dynamically generated proxies, using Castle DynamicProxy. The proxied version will add the attributes: Serializable and DataContract. I will not implement any interception, but I will setup a empty interceptor wh... (more)
