pietschsoft.com — A couple weeks ago I started the new VEToolkit (Virtual Earth Toolkit) Open Source project. This project spawns out of the need for more helpers to make Virtual Earth Map development much simpler, and follows inspiration from the Ajax Control Toolkit. This is a JavaScript library, so it's all client-side code; just like the Virtual Earth AJAX API itself. The project is also meant to play nicely with any client-side, JavaScript library you want to use within your application (such as jQuery, Prototype, etc.) read more...

pietschsoft.com — Originally, I started out as a Visual Basic developer, and have since moved mostly to C#. However, when doing consulting work, I do need to cross back and forth quite often. Here are a couple VB.NET tips that you probably aren't aware of if you're mostly a C# developer. Some VB.NET developers may not even know about them either. read more...

bhaidar.net — I have always misunderstood the difference between NULL and DBNULL until recently while I was working on ASP.NET web application, and was talking to a Webservice and I found an exception coming from one of the web methods inside the Webservice which is using the SqlCommand.ExecuteScalar() method. read more...

jason.whitehorn.ws — One such puzzling absence from the Silverlight tool chest is a progress bar control. WPF has a progress bar, WinForms has a progress bar, but not Silverlight. Fortunately implementing one is not that hard and provided a great introduction to Silverlight's layout model. read more...

pietschsoft.com — The first release of the new WPF Toolkit was released today. This toolkit includes a new Ribbon control as well as the following: new WPF DataGrid, DatePicker/Calendar, and VisualStateManger. The coolest feature of this Toolkit (IMO) is the new Ribbon control. In .NET 4.0 there will be a ribbon control baked in, but thanks to the WPF Toolkit we have access to utilize the new Ribbon control today in WPF with .NET 3.5 SP1! read more...

hanselman.com — ASP.NET MVC is now officially in Beta. Go get it! ScottGu has all the juicy details in his usually Epic style. In a nutshell, this is called Beta (and not Preview 1138) because the quality and the amount of testing gone into it was higher than the Previews and source drops you may have gotten off of CodePlex. It's API surface is pretty stable now. read more...

pietschsoft.com — When I did a search on "Silverlight Database" there weren't many results, and none of them actually mentioned a small database that you could embed into your Silverlight application. So, I thought I'd share a solution that I've used to store application data on the client using a combination of LINQ and Isolated Storage. This actually gives you a small "SQL"-like database since you can use LINQ to interact with it. read more...

pietschsoft.com — I was thinking it would be cool if you could place a StackOverflow "badge" on your website or blog showing your current Reputation score with a link to your profile. So I look into it, and it actually wasn't that difficult to "scrape" the information off the StackOverflow.com website. Here's a simple ASP.NET User Control that does the job. read more...

liveside.net — The Virtual Earth JavaScript control is not small weighing in at 217KB when compressed in Version 6.2. When you require the rich experience of Virtual Earth this size is not an issue, the control is aimed at broadband users and within a few moments of interacting with the map you can easy exceed this with the rich imagery being loaded on demand. But what if your web page only needs to show the Virtual Earth map when a user asks for it or you just want your page to load super fast? You need to load Virtual Earth on demand. read more...

garzilla.net — In this example we will look at the functionality needed to dynamically draw a polyline on the map. In the example to the right, functionality has been added so that you can dynamically draw a polyline on the displayed map. At the bottom of the map there is a button that needs to be clicked to start the process. read more...

faxt.com — As I’ve already mentioned, I'm an advocate for using Silverlight in moderation - keeping the web WEBBY. I'm also one very excited Silverlight programmer. That's why I use islands of Silverlight in my html pages instead of one huge monolithic Silverlight application that takes over the entire experience. read more...

wilcob.com — This can be addressed with Silverlight. The key to integrating all of this is the two-way interoperability layer in Silverlight (sometimes referred to as 'the HTML/JS bridge'), which is what I will be going through in this article. I will show you how you can access the HTML DOM and use your existing JavaScript code. You will see how you can pass managed objects back and forth, and program against them in JavaScript like ordinary JS objects. We will dive deep and take a look at what really happens under the hood to understand how far exactly our interoperability goes. read more...
