From:

Zoltan Arvai's 3rd (and final) part of the Data-Driven MVVM apps is up at SilverlightShow. In this final section he is focusing on validation, and discussion of closer integration to the view.

Antoni Dol has a cool post up about the FocusVisualElement, and uses a button to demonstrate how it can be used.

Jeff Prosise is discussing Silverlight and MEF... but better than the normal loading XAP files... he's doing dynamic discovery of XAP files... and makes it look easy!

David Anson revisits a prior post with an eye toward Silverlight 4. The feature he's discussing is that you can now hook the Resized event without having browser zoom disabled... and he demonstrates it's use in the code from the old post.

Jesse Liberty joins John Papa this week with Silverlight TV #33, discussing Transmedia and Silverlight as a Transmedia Platform.

Stay in the 'Light!

  • Your Customers Build the Features Now

    I let a tool I liked sit dead for a year rather than build the features I wanted. An MCP server meant I never had to, and your customers can do the same to your product.

  • Get the Size of a Directory in Linux the Easy Way

    du -sh for the quick answer, ncdu for the cleanup, df for the disk itself: every command for checking directory size in Linux, plus why du and df never agree.

  • Vim Search and Replace: The Ultimate Guide

    One :%s command replaces every match in a file before a find dialog would even open. The Vim substitute patterns worth the muscle memory: flags, ranges, capture groups, and multi-file edits.
