My Coding Hill

I am fortunate to live on a vast network of trails that start literally in my backyard… there is a trailhead two feet from the end of my driveway. These asphalt trails are plowed in the winter and wind through the backyards and parks, around the lakes, and along the streams of my suburban neighborhood. There are 20+ miles of trails available without ever stepping foot onto a roadway. As I was finishing a run a little over a year ago, it occurred to me to wonder why I was running on the street instead...

Iowa Code Camp in the Rearview Mirror

The third Iowa Code Camp was another first-class event. Those guys do a fantastic job every time. It is a tradition at Iowa Code Camp to intersperse pictures of cows randomly throughout your slide deck. On my way to the event, I made a quick stop at Greg Wilson’s house. Greg has cows, and had used a marking spray from the vet to write on three of his cows: I was scheduled to do one session on WPF data binding as part of a three-part series with Bryan Sampica and Greg Wilson. Just as I was settling...

Iowa Code Camp

I will be speaking at Iowa Code Camp this weekend. Greg Wilson, Bryan Sampica, and I are doing a series on WPF data binding. It should be a great time, so come on out!! These guys always put on a first class event. And the after party (the most important part of the weekend) is always awesome. (As for the cows, it’s an Iowa Code Camp thing. You kinda had to be there.) Technorati Tags: WPF,code camp...

Twin Cities Code Camp 6

A couple of weeks ago I presented WPF databinding at TCCC6. It was the end of a very hectic couple of weeks. I do not often post personal stuff to this blog, but in this the story is just too crazy. It all started during my family’s annual trip to Mexico. My nephew Drew has Spinal Muscular Atrophy, is wheelchair-bound, and the slightest illness poses a serious threat to him. I stayed with my family in Mexico for one week, then I returned home. My family was scheduled to stay for an additional week....

Debugging XMAL Parser Exceptions

In Visual Studio click on Debug –> Exceptions, and when the dialog box appears click “Add”. Fill it in as below: Be sure to check when “Thrown”. Now your code will break on the C# code where the error is thrown and you can find it more easily. Technorati Tags: WPF,XAML,Visual Studio...

Learning WPF With BabySmash: Redux. My Amazing BabySmash Qwerty Keyboard

The first thing I did after downloading BabySmash was to begin building an on-screen keyboard. I installed Microsoft Expressions, but quickly became frustrated. That was a surprise to me because I am a Photoshop pro!! (On portraits anyway). Despite the admonishing of many, I switched over to Visual Studio and began coding my keyboard by hand. Now I was on much more familiar territory! I do plan to return someday to Expressions when I have a more open mind. But for now, I want to build DrewbieSmash!...

Learning WPF With BabySmash: Redux

A long, long time ago in a galaxy far far away, a developer at Microsoft named Scott Hanselman decided to learn WPF. And so he set out upon the Great BabySmash Experiment. Meanwhile, in another galaxy, a developer at Magenic named Kirstin decided to learn WPF. By this time, the Great BabySmash Experiment had achieved fame far and wide, and so Kirstin downloaded the source code and created DrewbieSmash. Who is Drewbie? Drew is my five-year-old nephew and is very special in many ways. When he was about...
