With 2008 right around the corner I am putting together my travel plans, part of which includes visits to developers, designers, architects and CTO's who's challenges include building web-based applications.

Infragistics is based in New Jersey, ......
This past Tuesday morning we released the first public CTP of NetAdvantage for ASP.NET Aikido, a project that has consumed a significant portion of my life for the past 6 months. The CTP represents the introduction of a new series of controls based on our new Aikido framework, which is the first significant re-architecture of the product since its inception over 7 years ago. The new framework is designed from the ground up to provide a platform on which developers can build a new generation of Web ......

Whew...after what seems like forever (over 3 years actually), we are finally releasing NetAdvantage for WPF today, featuring the xamDataPresenter, the most flexible data driven layout control specifically designed for WPF to date. It was great to be part of the team that created this, and thought its slightly bittersweet for me since I have moved on from the WPF team to our ASP.NET team, it still is amazing to see what we have accomplished. The new NetAdvantage for WPF PM, Andrew Flick has more details ......

The second part of the week will be spent attending the ASPInsiders summit. In case your not familiar with the Insiders ......
As BillE stated, today was loaded with new software releases, and we at Infragistics just could not resist getting in on the action, so today we announced the public release of NetAdvantage 2006 Volume 3. While this release is loaded with many features as usual, the highlight of Volume 3 are the Windows Forms controls with the new Office 2007 look and feel, including the highly anticipated Office 2007 Ribbon UI, which has been added to the WinToolbars control. Also included are Office 2007 styled ......

The UltraWebChart has two in-the-box options for deployment: FileSystem or Session. The FileSystem option basically writes the rendered chart image to the web servers disk drive, and renders a standard image tag to the web page which points to that image as its src: <IMG id=UltraChart1_BaseImage src="/devin/ChartImages/Cha... .../> While a simple and reliable deployment option, the FileSystem option does have some drawbacks. 1) It requires that you give the ASPNET user Write ......
Just noticed that Tony, our ASP.NET product manager has already blogged about this, but in case you did not see it, we finally released APTCA marked assemblies for both CLR1 and CLR2 of NetAdvantage 6.2. This special version of the controls marked with the ATPC (“Allow Partically Trusted Callers”) attribute means that you can now deploy the assemblies into Medium trust hosting environments, such as those generally used by DotNetNuke or Sharepoint. More info, including download links here: ......

Visual Studio 2002-2003 allows 3rd party control vendors to plug into the Visual Studio HTML Intellisense system through the use of XSD schemas. If a control vendor provides a schema for their controls, then Visual Studio can use that schema to generate HTML Intellisense for you in the HTML designer. Unfortunately, the system is not ideal, quite brittle, and quite dependent on the actual HTML that is present in the web page or user control. As a control vendor this presents problems because we generally ......
When developers first get started withing with the NetAdvantage web controls, invariably one of the first issues they run into is not having the Infragistics.WebUI.Shared.dll assemblies CopyLocal property set to True. If you forget to do this, then you get a runtime exception that looks something like this: Additionally, once a developer learns that they need to set the assemblies CopyLocal property to True, there is often confusion as to which assemblies need to have this property set. In fact, ......

Day one consisted basically of a interesting (all be it long) keynote from BillG and Jim Alchin, some booth duty and a couple of sessions. Office 12 was formally shown and Atlas (MSFT's AJAX implementation) was touted, along with the usualy Longhorn suspects (Indigo and Avalon). Also, Don Box lead a code lap with ScottGu, Anders and Chris Anderson showing how you can hook up a simple app using Indigo, Avalon and ASP.NET (using Atlas). Interesting and fun to see them writing the app pretty much on ......
Looks like Rob and the guys at TelligentSystems have upgraded www.communityserver.org to a new build of Community Server from the ASP.NET Forums v2 version they were running. Nice new UI and seems to run faster than before.
Can't wait to get my hands on a final release build!
Ever wanted to read an assemblies metadata without actually loading the assembly, either because it was not performant enough, or the assembly was missing a reference. Here is a little utilitiy that I wrote that will enumerate through all of an assemblies references without loading any of the actual assemblies. It uses the Unmanaged MetaData API to read the meta data. We use it to help us debug manifest definition mismathc problems. http://workspaces.gotdotnet... Of course ......

Thanks to Jeff for setting a blog up for me. Tonight the St. Louis .NET user group is supposed to have a speaker from the MS Office team in to talk about Office 2003. Hopefully she can get here since she is flying out of LAX. I will probably be spending most of the meeting working on my presentation for Jeffs UG tomorrow (Kansas City .NET UG). I decided to tack on 30 minutes or so or Whidbey discussion since we are now finally able to talk about it <whew>. For those that have not seen it, I ......
