Lastly we will look at how we can add functionality to our “WPF/E” application. The “WPF/E” object model is explored and we learn how to interact with the video programmatically. We also learn about how to add our “WPF/E” application to a webpage and position it as desired.

“WPF/E” Video Boot Camp - XAML Basics - Ernie Booth

Ernie Booth — Sat, 13 Jan 2007 00:30:44 GMT

Welcome to the “WPF/E” (Codename) video boot camp. These videos will teach how to create an interactive media player in about an hour. The training is broken into three segments: XAML Basics; “WPF/E” with Microsoft Expression; and Programming “WPF/E”.
Together they provide a condensed environment that will allow you to quickly learn programming in “WPF/E”

We begin by learning about XAML (extensible Application Markup Language) which is used to create basic shapes, layout, and animation. All the demos are done using XAML Pad, a part of the Windows Platform SDK. You aren’t required to use XAMLPad for “WPF/E” development, but as you will seeit makes XAML development much faster.

Ernie Booth takes a look at peer to peer in Windows Vista. Ravi Rao Program Manager of Peer to Peer explains why we will care about it and how Windows Vista applications will take advantage of peer to peer.

The Windows Vista application Windows Collaboration is shown off along with a sample application that allows content to be hosted on the internet using peer to peer.

Peer to Peer concepts such as mesh networks, distributed computing, collaboration and serverless name resolution using PNRP (Peer Name Resolution Protocol) are explained.
