I was really blown away by the new features in Silverlight 4 demoed at the PDC keynote yesterday. The list is too long to include here so go here instead. If we have all these features in Silverlight, then why even bother with WPF? This will be one less technology we will have to learn about. The VS 2010 editor should simply have been written in Silverlight :-) I am anxiously awaiting the release of the source codes for the demos. Read More...

In my post on RIA Services: From Vision to Architecture , a while back (right after MIX09), I mentioned that I like to think of RIA Services as RAD for RIA. At that point we had a very early preview of framework bits with little tools support. A large part of jumpstarting your development actually centers around good tooling. VS2010 brings tooling for RIA Services (now: WCF RIA Services). Scott Hanselman demonstrated some key features used in building a Contacts application (as shown on the right) during the keynote at PDC09 . The latest version of RIA Services is now available for download. It works on .NET 4 and VS2010 as well. You can also check out a video tutorial on using RIA Services and Visual Studio 2010. In this post, I want to highlight...

So the Silverlight platform has been quite interesting for some time in concept, and had some niche abilities that made it perfect for streaming media, or writing simple rich applications. Around the time of Silverlight 3 things started to get interesting; as the tools developed, and the platform matured! Enter, Silverlight 4! For those of you that have been waiting to adopt this technology into your own development lifecycle, I truly believe your wait is over. Difficult or downright impossible things inside Silverlight applications have now been overcome. Limitations such as Printing, Local File Access, mouse scroll wheel support, and out of browser experiences. There has been a huge stir of Silverlight 4 activity at PDC09 this year (where...

I received the vague error message “The project file ' ' has been renamed or is no longer in the solution” while building a Visual Studio solution. I was unable to build any projects in the solution. Rebuild and Clean were not working and were responding with the same message. --------------------------- Microsoft Visual Studio --------------------------- The project file ' ' has been renamed or is no longer in the solution. --------------------------- OK --------------------------- After a bunch of searching around and hair pulling, I was able to narrow it down by removing all projects from my solution and slowly adding them back in one at a time and rebuilding between each one. Eventually I tracked...

While watching Scott Guthrie, Scott Hanselman, and Brian Goldfarb demonstrate Silverlight 4, I had a range of reactions: Wow! I’ve got to play with this stuff! I’m feeling overwhelmed by the avalanche of technology How will I find the time to do billable work and stay current with this great stuff? Maybe I can convince my client to switch the app in development from ASP.NET 3.5 to Silverlight 4? It’s all so exciting, unnerving, and, in a certain way, upsetting to be so blown away by technology.

Awesome service but it is coming to an end apparently. Microsoft Silverlight Streaming by Windows Live Beta is being discontinued and will eventually be taken down I’ve been using that service since it started and really enjoyed it. Was easy to create WMV webcasts, upload them, then create Silverlight wrappers for ASP.NET sites. What to do now? Well some Developers have mentioned using Channel 9 . Great idea. When I mentioned this to DiscountASP.NET concerning our free technical webcasts they were...( read more ) Read More...
