| The Latest from DevelopMentor | MORE | | Installing RavenDB 2 This Management Studio is a Silverlight application that will let us manage different aspects of the server. Before we get started with RavenDB we need to install the required parts. There are several ways we can do this and one of the easiest is using the NuGet Package manager from within Visual Studio 2012 with the available RavenDB NuGet packages. Which package to install? As should be obvious from the screenshot above there are quite a few NuGet packages to choose from. It turns out we need to use two packages to get started, the client and server part.

The RavenDB Management Studio. The Problem Solver - Friday, January 4, 2013 Getting started with RavenDB in an ASP.NET MVC application Part of the RavenDB.Server package is a Silverlight client that lets you manage the server and inspect, or even change, the data. RavenDB is one of the newer document type databases that is conceptually comparable to MongoDB or CouchDB. One of the nice thing about RavenDB, at least for a.NET developer, is that is has been developed with.NET in mind from the start. And this makes it really easy to get started with. In fact it is so easy to get started with that it surprises me that not everyone is using it. Instead I just create my C# classes and store them as documents in the database.

| The Best from DevelopMentor | MORE | - Using Model – View – ViewModel with Silverlight
have found it extremely easy to use when developing very different applications and have used the design pattern recently in both ASP.NET, WPF and Silverlight applications. Even thought the UI technology used doesn't change the basic MVVM pattern there are some subtle differences, like not easily being able to use ICommand in Silverlight, so I decided to create a small Silverlight sample. The basic structure goes like this: The user interacts with a View, implemented as a Silverlight user control. Tags: NET DevCenter WPF Silverlight 11: {. 13: set. 14: {. The Problem Solver - Tuesday, April 7, 2009 - Easier Async for Silverlight Apps using MVVM
WPF and Silverlight have Dispatcher.CheckAccess / Dispatcher.BeginInvoke. Technical MVVM SilverlightIt makes sense to execute long-running tasks on a background thread, in order to keep the UI responsive by not tying up the main thread. However, as is the case with other UI frameworks such as Windows Forms or WPF, you should not touch UI elements from worker threads. This has to do with how Windows apps process messages, which are always handled on the thread that created the visual element. Windows Forms has the Control.InvokeRequired / Control.BeginInvoke API. Tony and Zuzana's World - Saturday, January 29, 2011 - Paging with the Silverlight RIA services DomainDataSource
Using the declarative DomainDataSource that is part of the upcoming Silverlight 3 RIA services makes it quite easy to work with data. Tags: NET VB DevCenter Silverlight Data Access ASP.NET.All you need to do is add a DomainDataSource control to the the XAML, point it to the generated DomainContext class (in this case NorthwindContext) and tell it which method to use to load the data from the web service(in this case LoadCustomers). Next add a DataGrid to display the data and you are good to go. Adding paging. assume this is just a small bug in the current preview. Enjoy!

Note: This blog post is written using Silverlight 4.0 RC 1 One of the cool new features in Silverlight 4 is the ability to data bind to indexed properties. Tags: NET Silverlight ASP.NET VS2010 This means that even if you don’t know at design time what properties you data object has you can still data bind to them. The syntax is very similar to a normal data binding, only in this case you need to use the [key] syntax instead. For example in example below the FirstName is a regular property while the LastName below is an indexed property. get; set; }. public Person(). {. The Problem Solver - Monday, April 12, 2010 - Getting T4 templates to work with Silverlight
In a previous blog post I mentioned that T4 templates didn’t quite work with Silverlight development. The reason being that Visual Studio decides to load the Silverlight version of System.dll which doesn’t contain all the required classes. Tags: NET Silverlight Fortunately I was not the first person to run into this limitation, Jason Jarrett did as well and he described the solution in a blog post here. The solution turns out to be surprisingly simple, just not very obvious. All you need to do is include the following line at the top of the T4 template. 11: {. The Problem Solver - Monday, March 23, 2009 - Commands versus Event Triggers in MVVM
For several reasons I tend to favor event triggers over commands in most scenarios, especially for Silverlight applications. Unfortunately Silverlight requires you to fire the CanExecuteChanged event manually, which is why implementations of ICommand (such as the DelegateCommand in Simple MVVM Toolkit) also expose a public RaiseCanExecute method. Technical MVVM SilverlightRecently I’ve received some questions from the Simple MVVM Toolkit’s discussion forum on when to use commands versus Blend-style event triggers. For example, I could have a method called ShowCustomer. Tony and Zuzana's World - Friday, July 22, 2011 %>
