Day eight* of the port and I was so happy not to discover any new issues. At this point I have almost all the major UI pieces in place. You can now see what you would normally during typical profiler usage. There’s still a lot of work to be done…probably much more than has been done so far...

Today I worked on statements. They flow pretty naturally out of the sessions functionality. I still have a lot of work ahead of me, so fortunately I only found two new issues today. I was able to rework Xaml in both cases fairly easily. Binding in it’s Element form is not allowed. Fortunately,...

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...

This is a true story. It’s a story about porting a non-trivial WPF application, NHProf , to Silverlight 4. The story begins today with my first actual work on the porting process. Microsoft has been preaching how easy it is to move between these platforms. Are they telling the truth? I’ll...

Over the past week I've had the distinct opportunity to have a first-hand look into NHProf , Ayende's upcoming profiler for NHibernate . It's been an honor to be part of the team that is putting NHProfiler through its paces. While NHProfiler is still in private beta it is very...
