MVVM with Prism 101 – Part 6b: Wrapping IClientChannel(www.developmentalmadness.com)

submitted by developmentalmadnessdevelopmentalmadness(730) 2 years, 2 months ago

I could have used the title “Ditching Client Service Proxy” or “Avoiding Add Service Reference”, but that’s not what the meat of the post is about. However, that is essentially the goal of this post. The client service proxy generated when you use “Add Service Reference…” to reference your web service from your client project is used by almost every demo I know. It quickly generates a proxy class for you that at first blush is “the bee’s knees”. read more...

MVVM with Prism 101 – Part 3b: View Injection and Controller Pattern(developmentalmadness.com)

submitted by developmentalmadnessdevelopmentalmadness(730) 2 years, 7 months ago

In my last post I addressed regions in the Composite Application Library for WPF/Silverlight (Prism). I looked at what they were and how they were used. But by the end of the post I felt that the concept of View Injection needed further attention. I’ve almost exclusively used View Discovery up to this point in my development. But when I’ve run into a need to use View Injection I’m uncomfortable with what seems to be a tightly coupled relationship. read more...

MVVM with Prism 101 – Part 1: The Bootstrapper(developmentalmadness.com)

TIP: Open SQL Files in a Visual Studio Project Into the Same Instance (developmentalmadness.com)

submitted by developmentalmadnessdevelopmentalmadness(730) 2 years, 8 months ago

Considering how integrated Microsoft tools usually are the result is frustrating when you tell Visual Studio to open SQL files using Sql Server Management Studio (SSMS). I really don’t like using Visual Studio to edit T-SQL files but in the past, before I discovered this tip, each SQL file I opened would open in a new instance of SSMS. read more...
