Validating Collections of Entities in LightSwitch - Beth Massi

published 995 days, 23 hours, 10 minutes ago posted by

jantu 996 days, 21 hours, 26 minutes ago

One of the many challenging things in building n-tier applications is designing a validation system that allows running rules on both the client and the server and sending messages and displaying them back on the client. I’ve built a couple application frameworks in my time and so I know how tricky this can be. I’ve been spending time digging into the validation framework for LightSwitch and I have to say I’m impressed. LightSwitch makes it easy to write business rules in one place and run them in the ap...

jantu 1000 days, 17 hours, 41 minutes ago

So I think I’ve mentioned before I have been working on a Windows Phone 7 application. It’s been a real learning experience as oftentimes as a writer, I get to know my feature areas very well, but don’t create full-blown applications using several features. How to load a static xml file into my application is one of the things I’ve recently learned. (more)

Your phone can turn into a robot LayoutTransformer works great on the Windows Phone platform - David Anson

published 999 days, 20 hours, 13 minutes ago posted by

jantu 1001 days, 18 hours, 21 minutes ago

The WPF platform offers RenderTransform and LayoutTransform. Silverlight - being considerably smaller and a bit simpler - has only RenderTransform. Which is usually enough - except when it's not! :)So I wrote LayoutTransformControl a while back in order to bring LayoutTransform to the Silverlight platform. It was so useful/popular that we included it in the Silverlight Toolkit with the name LayoutTransformer [insert robot sounds here].That post includes links to a bunch of my posts about... (more)

mvcConf was a free, virtual conference focused on ASP.NET MVC which ran on 7/22. We ran 25 sessions in three virtual rooms and had roughly 500 people logged on throughout the day. All sessions were run via LiveMeeting and were recorded. We were really happy with the community reception, e.g. this public “well done” for the ASP.NET MVC Conference post.

A few times, we have been asked how to use a URL to directly navigate to a given sub-page of a SketchFlow prototype.

In the previous page, you learned how to pass data from one page to another page when navigating. In this page, we'll learn how to read the data that you passed in earlier. Reading the Data To read data that has been passed in via a query string, there are two things you need to do: Overwrite a method called OnNavigatedTo Use NavigationContext.QueryString.TryGetValue to read the value given a key.

jantu 1007 days, 23 hours, 57 minutes ago

I've already written about my efforts to improve the orientation behavior of Windows Phone applications; while the default behavior of snapping to the new orientation is fast and easy, it lacks a certain amount of panache. So I wrote the class to animate changes between portrait and landscape layouts. It works well, and I know of a few upcoming Windows Phone applications that are using it. (more)
