Getting Started with FSharpChart - Fsharp Team - Keith Battocchi

Hi, I'm Keith Battocchi, and I'm working on making it easier to use F# for data-rich programming. In my first blog post, I want to highlight some of the basic features of the FSharpChart wrappers that Don blogged about earlier this month. As Don mentioned, this library contains F#-friendly wrappers for the types in the System.Windows.Forms.DataVisualization.Charting namespace, making it easy to interactively chart data from F# Interactive (see also the Chart Controls section of MSDN for further informa...

Spreading Inheritance Tree Mapping Across Assemblies in Code First - Gil Fink on .Net

published 766 days, 10 hours, 48 minutes ago posted by gilfgilf 767 days, 11 hours, 37 minutes ago
Monday, April 18, 2011 2:01:52 PM GMT Sunday, April 17, 2011 1:12:51 PM GMT
Today I helped a client to solve a problem regarding EF4.1 Code First. The issue that they banged their heads with was an inheritance tree mapping in their model which is spread across two different assemblies. When they run the application they always got the same exception – “mapping and metadata information could not be found for entitytype ‘entity name’”. (more)

ASP.NET MVC 3 Tools Update, now with Drop-Down Lists! - Joe Cartano

The ASP.NET MVC 3 Tools Update includes EF Code First as a preinstalled NuGet package. You can use EF Code First to generate models and then scaffold them with the updated Add Controller tool. Of course, you don’t have to use EF Code First to take advantage of the updated scaffolding in the ASP.NET MVC 3 Tools Update. Lets take a look at some of the improvements. Below is a screenshot of the new and improved Add Controller dialog. I am about to scaffold a controller and CRUD views for the Employee entity... (more)

Are you sometimes frustrated by WF/WCF? Let’s just be honest for a moment… all of us are frustrated by WF/WCF at times. Even those of us who work on the product can probably think of a hundred ways we would like to make them better. However, we can’t fix everything or change everything that we would like to change because we also face the reality that we have a limited amount of time and resources to make changes... (more)

"Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it." [WebBrowserExtensions.StringSource attached dependency property makes Silverlight/Windows Phone/WPF's WebBrowser control more XAML- and binding-friendly] - David Anson

Thursday, April 21, 2011 1:07:06 AM GMT Sunday, April 17, 2011 2:33:40 PM GMT
The WebBrowser control is available in Silverlight 4, Windows Phone 7, and all versions of WPF. It's mostly the same everywhere, though there are some specific differences to keep in mind when using it on Silverlight-based platforms. WebBrowser offers two ways to provide its content: by passing a URI or by passing a string with HTML text: If you have a URI, you can set the Source (dependency) property in code or XAML or you can call the Navigate(Uri) method from code...

Security is a key component of applications and something that developers often struggle with to get right. How do you authenticate a user? How do you integrate roles and use them to show or hide different parts of a screen? These and other questions commonly come up as I talk with developers working on ASP.NET and Silverlight applications. I was recently presenting a workshop on Silverlight at the DevConnections conference in Orlando and had a question from the audience on how I handle security roles ... (more)

You'll remember from my last post that I've been working on a small order-entry program in ASP.NET MVC. This is my first "from scratch" ASP.NET MVC application, so I've been learning some MVC and jQuery tricks along the way. Here's a partial screenshot of the "new order" screen to refresh your memory: You'll notice that each silo has a "capacity", and I wanted to be able to limit the item quantity to that value. No sense in allowing a farm to order mo... (more)

MVVM Light V4 preview 3 (BL16, MIX11 edition!!) - Laurent Bugnion

At MIX11, I am releasing a new preview of MVVM Light version 4. This new preview contains one small change and one large change. ObservableObject replaces NotifyPropertyChanged In the previous preview, I introduced a new class named NotifyPropertyChanged. However, I got a few suggestions to rename this class to ObservableObject, which is indeed a better name. In BL16, NotifyPropertyChanged was deleted and replaced by ObservableObject. Nothing else changes, just the name. (more)

The third series of Entity Framework tutorials, Getting Started with the Entity Framework Using ASP.NET MVC, has been published on the ASP.NET site. The tutorials create a sample application similar to the one that the two Web Forms series (Getting Started with the Entity Framework and Continuing with the Entity Framework) create. You can download a Visual Studio project that is a finished version of the series. Besides using MVC rather than Web Forms, this series is also different in that it uses the C... (more)

Creating a Markup Extension for MEF with Silverlight 5 - Jeremy Likness

Sunday, April 17, 2011 12:05:53 PM GMT Saturday, April 16, 2011 7:13:07 PM GMT
One exciting new feature of Silverlight 5 is the ability to create custom markup extensions. Markup extensions are a part of XAML. Whenever you see a notation that starts and ends with a brace, you are viewing a markup extension. Markup extensions exist to pass information to properties in the XAML that the XAML parser can use when generating the object graph. A commonly used example of markup extensions is the data-binding syntax. In the following XAML snippet, the data-binding uses a markup extensi... (more)

In fact it is almost exactly a year ago when Silverlight 4 was released. The team has been working very hard to deliver on the features we discussed at the Silverlight Firestarter event last December 2010. That was a flurry of revealing that happened in December showing the world what the Silverlight team has been working... (more)
