WPF 4 and Silverlight 3 have now provided some easy to use mechanisms to start building upon this. In this session we will be looking at what has been provided for us in these technologies that allow us to take advantage of this concept. We will look at code demo's that show how to do things like movement, resize and gestures. We will also see demo's on how we can think of and use some of these concepts to provide functionality outside of the obvious intent. |

| <strong>TAMPA.NET</strong> - Demystifying Windows Communication Foundation - Keith Elder - INETA Speaker | tampa | Windows Communication Foundation was released with the .Net 3.0 framework and is the future of the platform for distributed computing. With .Net 3.5 and Visual Studio 2008, Windows Communication Foundation (WCF) became a first class citizen with additional tooling and add ons for Windows Workflow Foundation. In this session we are going to look at WCF from the standpoint of how to transition from ASMX web services and some of the important things you should know about WCF. If you have been hesitant in adopting WCF and still writing ASMX web services, this session will hopefully put you over the edge to giving WCF a try. I assure you, once you do, you will never look back. |
