Automatically stretching a Silverlight 2 control on a webpage
Tuesday, June 03, 2008 9:28:19 AM |
||
| A couple of fun hours were spent trying to get my Silverlight content to resize when the user resized the browser. I mean, what’s the point of having your Silverlight content replace HTML if it wont flow and resize when the user resizes the browser? I want my Silverlight content to take up the [...] | ||

Problem calling a Web Service from Silverlight 2
Saturday, May 31, 2008 8:13:48 AM |
||
| Apparently the “System.ServiceModel.ProtocolException” error is common in the fledgling world of Silverlight 2 and Web Services. In my case I tried to reference a Web Service that my company created and was disappointed with this entertaining message: System.ServiceModel.ProtocolException’ occurred in System.ServiceModel.dll but was not handled in user code Additional information: [UnexpectedHttpResponseCode]Arguments:Not Found Debugging resource strings are [...] | ||

Combining Silverlight 2 content from multiple web applications in VS2008
Friday, May 30, 2008 2:36:55 PM |
||
| In a project I’m doing I need to create a web application that can consume Silverlight 2 RIA content from other web applications. As it turns out, this is pretty easy to do. All you need to do is reference the xap in the other web application from your page and it works exactly the [...] | ||

3D in Silverlight 2.0
Monday, May 26, 2008 5:02:09 PM |
||
| So what’s the difference between WPF and Silverlight again? Oh yes, well WPF has more advanced features. You know, 3D graphics! Isn’t it strange that many Silverlight demos invariably incorporate 3D style effects? Take a look at this article for a very rich solution: Silverlight: Building Advanced 3D Animations with Silverlight 2.0 I wonder how long [...] | ||

Twittering using the Compact Framework
Monday, May 19, 2008 10:23:14 AM |
||
| My twitter updates are done using a variety of code. At the moment I use the Curl command line in conjunction with SlickRun. In the past I did this with Outlook (see the article Twittering from Outlook Using VBA). In the past I’ve found this pretty easy to do using the Twitter Api. I also [...] | ||

Disturbing "Windows Live" Picture - Caption Competition
Tuesday, April 29, 2008 8:25:04 AM |
||
| Am I the only one that finds this picture a bit strange? What is Microsoft trying to say? Why are those people so manically happy? (Obviously to see Stripey means alot to them) Are they Live developers that are thrilled to see at least one person is using the search engine? I’d be interested in what you believe [...] | ||

PPCFinder 1.0.0.5 released
Thursday, April 24, 2008 11:00:54 PM |
||
| About a year ago we released the freeware Pocket PC search program PPCFinder. This program has had literally thousands of downloads subsequently with only a single release. I’m proud to announce the first public update of the program since it’s original release. The maintenance release 1.0.0.5. The “backstory” of PPCFinder is a plane flight home from [...] | ||

Silverlight HTTP Networking Stack
Tuesday, April 22, 2008 3:34:14 PM |
||
| I found a neat article by one of the Silverlight team describing the way network calls work in xap applications. What I find particularly interesting is the fact that the host browsers communications stack is used for HTTP communication. This means that cookies and authentication from the current browser session are sent in these [...] | ||

Easy InkCanvas in Winforms for capturing signatures
Friday, April 18, 2008 8:10:05 PM |
||
| In WPF there’s an interesting control called “InkCanvas” that can be used to capture signatures and the like in Tablet PC applications. Recently I created a prototype for a windows forms application. I did consider using WPF, but the overhead seemed unnecessary considering the simplicity of the requirement. I am aware there’s a specific SDK [...] | ||

Silverlight 2 has built in Unit Testing
Thursday, April 03, 2008 10:48:27 AM |
||
| As announced by Scott Guthrie in Mix08, and now on his blog, Silverlight 2 incorporates visual unit testing. One of the motivations for an MVC/MVP architecture for me is better unit testing of ui logic. Sometimes it is very difficult to created automated visual tests for some platforms, such as Winforms. It appears (from [...] | ||
