I started working on the most complicated part of the UI: Sessions. There are a lot of different view models and views related to this part. Fortunately, by now, I think I have found most of the issues. But I’m still encountering a few new issues here on day six. Below is the customary screenshot...

Well, I’m pleased to say that on Wednesday I only encountered one new* issue during the port. ListBox does not support grouping. One neat thing in WPF is that all the items controls supported grouping. One of the reports we had was a set of master/details grids where the master was a grouped ListBox...

On Tuesday I spent a decent amount of time fleshing out the last remaining features under the Options menu. I then did some general reorganization to the project structure. Along with the port to Silverlight, I’ve been upgrading the application to use Caliburn 2.0 which is working out exceedingly...

On Monday I spent a good four hours working on the port. I decided to flesh out the functionality of the Main Menu. As I mentioned before , none of the menu controls available support commanding. Fortunately, Caliburn has its own mechanism which is much richer than what you get out of the box anyways...

Friday I only had a few hours to work on the port. I thought I might look into what it would take to add the main menu. It’s an important part of the shell that I completely skipped in my first pass. Unfortunately, there aren’t really any free or open source menu controls that I could find...

In the last par t I showed a very basic view model. I needed something in order to give those new to the concept of MVVM a concrete example. However, there are several aspects of that example that left me feeling uncomfortable; not to mention the myriad questions that seemed to arise in my mind about...

Over the next several months I am going to be releasing various starter kits/samples for Caliburn. Each sample will demonstrate a different application style. I’ve factored each sample so that it has a reusable mini-framework, allowing developers to easily take the shell and start plugging in their...

If you are building an OOB application with Silverlight that relies on web services, you may have some interesting challenges on you hands. You probably want to have some fallback for certain operations when the network is down. You can do some fun stuff with caches and message queuing, but...
