Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 comes with great UML Features I will explain them in details in future post.

Some time you need to know whether your user clicked a control once or double clicked it. Sometime you need to know how many click a user did in the UI control. In this post, you will learn about it. Silverlight 5 Beta has been announced with newly added feature called ClickCount. It's a property added to the MouseButtonEventArgs. Using this you will be able to find out how many multiple click happened by the user. Read the complete post to know about the implementation and the issues. Don't forget to ... (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

Alex 769 days, 2 hours, 8 minutes ago

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...

Configuration Settings Are A Dependency That Should Be Injected

posted by

devtrends 768 days, 21 hours, 51 minutes ago

Dependency Injection does not just apply to obvious dependencies such as repositories and logging components. It is very important to inject ALL dependencies including the less obvious ones. In my experience, one of the most overlooked areas is configuration. Many people seem perfectly happy to extract settings from config deep within their code. This is plain wrong. If you need to reference an AppSetting in your business logic, inject it. If you need a connection string in your data access code, inject ... (more)

Observing ObservableObject

published 765 days, 15 hours, 35 minutes ago posted by

KodefuGuru 767 days, 17 hours, 3 minutes ago

When creating any component that must be bound, it is essential to implement the INotifyPropertyChanged interface. Repeating yourself is a bad thing, and although you can’t get around it in all situations, sometimes it’s preferable to merely inherit from a class that implements this interface for you. In a preview for the upcoming release of MVVM Light, Laurent Bugnion introduced a class call NotifyPropertyChanged. It does follow to name the class this, as it is just a concrete implementation of the INo... (more)

Let's start with a DISCLAIMER: If you are already an active user of any ORM, this specific post is not for you. I'll talk to you later. For everyone else, let's continue. In my role as a technical evangelist, I get the chance to travel the globe and talk to developer audiences on a regular basis. To keep a clear picture of how developers are working, I often informally poll audiences and try to listen for trends in development behavior. One trend that continues to stand out is how many developers still ... (more)

NESL: Native Extension for Silverlight or No (Except Seven) Limits for Silverlight? Experimenting the Sensor API with a Wiimote

published 764 days, 3 hours, 32 minutes ago posted by

KMil 766 days, 5 hours, 12 minutes ago

The first time I heard about the Native Extension for Silverlight, I wondered: well, in what context can I use this? In what kind of scenario? And overall, is it something really usable? In this article I will try to test one of the features included in NESL, i.e. the capability of interacting with motion sensors. At the end I used the popular wiimote controller since it has a built-in accelerometer. (more)

MVC Extension Method for Hosting Static Content on a CDN - Nathan Totten

published 764 days, 3 hours, 32 minutes ago posted by

Steves 766 days, 37 minutes ago

I created a simple extension method that allows you to easily host your static content off the Microsoft ASP.NET Ajax CDN and Windows Azure CDN. This simple extension method will improve the performance of your website as well as saving server capacity (i.e. money). As you may have heard Windows Azure now supports using your Web Roles as a CDN backing. This allows you to use the Windows Azure CDN without the need to m... (more)

Create user friendly date fields with ASP.NET MVC EditorTemplates & jQueryUI - Rachel Appel

Today's web sites need to be user friendly, interactive, and responsive. The date field is of particular interest because at this point in time, users pretty much expect too see nicely formatted dates on the site in general, and datepicker/calendar widgets to interact with when editing date fields. The best way to do this, of course, is with client s... (more)

Bad passwords are not fun and good entropy is always important: demystifying security fallacies

published 766 days, 17 hours, 40 minutes ago posted by

http://troyhunt.myopenid.com/ 768 days, 8 hours, 58 minutes ago

A couple of different friends sent me over a link to an article about the usability of passwords this weekend, clearly thinking it would strike a chord. Well, let’s just say I was enthralled before I even finished the second line: "Security companies and IT people constantly tells us that we should use complex and difficult passwords. This is bad advice" The crux of the article is that so long as a password is sufficiently long – the example used is “this is fun” – you’re pretty damn secure (apparently ... (more)

This blog post describes a Windows Phone 7 NavigationList control, a list control designed for navigation pages. The NavigationList renders twice as fast as a ListBox and has a slightly simpler API. A few months ago I blogged about the relative performance of the Windows Phone 7 emulator versus the same code being run on the real hardware. There were a couple of take-home messages from this blog post, firstly the performance on real hardware is typically much slower than the emulator, and secondly an It... (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.

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

gilf 769 days, 3 hours, 29 minutes ago

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)
