Jeremy Likness has a 10-minute walkthrough post up on MEF, I archived it at, so that's a good starter because he's got a good post up now that's much more than 10 minutes, but it's Silverlight, XAML, and MEF... so it's dead-on... oh and all the source too, so have at it!
Confused about "sharing assemblies between Silverlight and.NET?" So are a bunch of folks, so this post by the CLR Team Blog should help and you'll either be pleasantly surprised or disappointed:)
In her last post, Deborah Kurata mentioned how hard it was to add a ComboBox to a DataForm that is bound to a DomainDataSource. This time, she does just that... lots of code as usual... just the way I like it:)
Tim Heuer points us at a sound byte from Glenn Block, MEF-Guru, then gives links to Glenn's latest work in MEF with Silverlight.
Ning Zhang has a post up discussing adding Design-time assemblies for your controls. He makes his case then goes on to explain the various ways to do so with external links as well.
Continuing his investigation into Silverlight 4B features, Jeff Prosise has a post up about the extended element data binding.
Fredrik Normén responded to a complex question on the forum about updating a chached EntitySet taking into consideration what other users may have been doing... all good stuff!
Catching up on older Antoni Dol posts, here's one on the top 10 Silverlight 4B features for all the Designers out there.
Adam Kinney has a post up about a Bug Smash game using the webcam and frame diff calculations. He's going to talk more about it later, but get the source, the video, play it... fun stuff!
If you've been developing a.NET RIA Services app and want to transition to WCF RIA Services, check out Jordan Knight's post... he discusses his pain and solutions.
Andy Beaulieu announced the release on Coding4Fun of his PinBall game creation tutorial... great-looking tutorial using Expression Blend, Farseer Physics, and Silverlight
Kevin Dockx has a post up about restricting your service methods to only those folks you want, but then you step into the realm of SSL, and that's where his post comes in handy.
Al Pascual discusses issues with Silverlight 4B and VS2010. He discusses problems with COM Interop, the Printing API, and hosting HTML content.
Stay in the 'Light!
