Over the weekend I have had tons of fun playing around with the Windows Phone 7 Developers Tools. The platform looks awesome, both from an end user perspective as well as a developer perspective. One of the scenarios I’ve been exploring involves some simple multitouch pinch and zoom gestures. It’s fairly simple to add custom touch functionality by subscribing to the Manipulation Events hanging off all UIElements. If you got a touch enabled Windows 7 computer you can even test mu ...

Last year I gave a presentation on the MVVM design pattern at the Norwegian Developer Conference. Most of the presentations from NDC2009 was recorded and made available online, including mine. However, the user experience of the video content on the NDC site isn’t the best. Playing a video requires multiple clicks, and the videos are only available in WMV format. The feedback I’ve gotten on the presentation is so good that I decided to make it a bit more discoverable by uploading it to Vime ...

There has been lots of talk in the Silverlight community about what is the best way to implement the INotifyPropertyChanged interface. During Christmas I blogged about how you can use dynamic proxies to get INPC implemented automatically. Since then both Einar Ingebrigtsen and Justin Angel have blogged about an interesting approach to INPC using MSIL weaving. I really recommend checking out Justin’s post, as he covers some of the pros and cons of different INPC implementations, as well as purpos ...

Yesterday I published a post showing how we can use AOP and Castle Dynamic Proxy to get automatic change notification for ViewModels by intercepting property setters. One of the comments I got was from Krzysztof Kozmic who suggested that I should use ProxyGenerationHook to narrow down the scope of the proxy. By implementing the IProxyGenerationHook we get to choose which methods to intercept. In my original implementation this logic was handled by the interceptor itself. The interceptor woul ...

As a WPF or Silverlight developer chances are you have implemented the INotifyPropertyChanged-interface more than once. The interface is simple enough, consisting of a single PropertyChanged-event. The data binding infrastructure in WPF and Silverlight will look for this interface and subscribe to the PropertyChanged-event. As a developer you have to write code in your property setters to raise the event whenever some property is changed. This is boring and repetitive code to write, that often c ...

Last month I was lucky enough to attend and speak at the Smidig2009 (Agile 2009) conference in Oslo. This was my first time attending the conference, and I’m really impressed with the content, speakers, organizers and attendees. The format of the conference was four lightning talks per hour in three simultaneous tracks before lunch, and open spaces after lunch. The formatted worked out really well – and I got to see several inspiring and educational talks, as well as taking part in some interest ...

On Wednesday 21 October I will be visiting the Kristiansand chapter of NNUG to give two Silverlight presentations. The first will be about the MVVM design pattern, and the second on building business focused applications using .NET RIA Services. After the NNUG meeting there will be a geekbeer get-together at Patrick’s. Details and registration for the meeting is up on the NNUG site. On Thursday and Friday (22-23 October) I will be attending the Smidig 2009 (Agile 20 ...

The videos from NDC2009 are now published on the conference agenda site. The site isn’t the easiest to navigate, so Mark Nijhof went through the effort of creating a simple list of all the videos grouped by speaker. There is tons of great content available and the videos should be a great way to do some (relaxed) learning in the summer heat. There is a problem with some of the links, and the link to the video of my second talk on .NET RIA Services is broken. I’ll m ...

Yesterday I was awarded Microsoft Most Valuable Professional in Silverlight. The nomination came based on my involvement with the Silverlight community during my year in Australia. I’m truly grateful for such recognition, and am looking forward to continue to work closely with the Silverlight development community to share knowledge and learn together. About the MVP program (from Microsoft): Microsoft is pleased to recognize and aw ...

The background for this article is a discussion thread on the Regional Director discussions list. One of my fellow RDs asked the question weather Silverlight 2 was ready for business applications or not. Based on my reply to the discussion Derek Hatchard asked me to turn it into an article he could publish on the " {You Shape} it " site. The article is now ...
