Windows 8 and the future of XAML: Part 5: More contracts in WinRT/Windows 8

published 420 days, 23 hours, 42 minutes ago posted by

KMil 426 days, 11 hours, 45 minutes ago

In the previous article, we’ve introduced contracts in Windows 8. To quickly recapitulate, a contract allows Metro style applications in Windows 8 to communicate which each other or with Windows, without there being a hard reference between the participants of the communication. We’ve seen how the search contract allows applications to open themselves up to Windows so they can be search. There’s of course a contract that specifies how this searching is to be done: an application has to follow the rules s... (more)

Windows 8 and the future of XAML: Part 4: Contracts in WinRT/Windows 8

published 428 days, 16 hours, 43 minutes ago posted by

KMil 434 days, 12 hours, 20 minutes ago

In the previous article of this series, Gill Cleeren wrote the first lines of code for WinRT. The main message was that although WinRT is a new API, we can still use our familiar languages to create Metro style applications. We have used the XAML/C# combination, but it’s perfectly possible to use XAML/VB or XAML/C++ as well. We’ll be using more of the API in the coming articles but in this article, we’ll focus on some specifics around contracts, more specifically, the Search contract. Contracts enable Me... (more)

mbcrump 447 days, 19 hours ago

I have been playing with the Windows 8 Consumer Preview since the day it was released. It is my primary operating system at nights and weekends.
