• First look at 5 features of IE9 RC

  Feb 10, 2011 at 12:06 PM

  where can i get a "readme" file of whats chnaged / fixed as of rc9?

  for example the prior beta and VS2010 debugging is broken this is part vs2010 and part IE9 ..

  also many sites badly mis render in the prior beta is there any news on how we will cope untill they fix the sites ?  I never did find a way to get the sites to work right in IE9 Beta

  also the problem with images not loading / showing - has that been fixed ?

  sorry if this is in the video i am working and can't watch it right now.

• Silverlight TV 53: T Minus 2 Weeks to the Silverlight Firestarter

  Nov 19, 2010 at 1:58 AM

   

  My take: make a next gen x box that has the following:

  1 Blue Ray drive
  2 Cable card slots
  3  SIlverlight runtime
  4 the rest of the stuff the 360 has but updated with new hardware specs.
  5 support 3d - i am not really looking for 3d but i see that more as "keeping up" with whats beeing marketed now.

  BOOM! there ya go!  the consumer does not need to buy a blue ray player and does not have to get a cable box  for tv just plug in a cable card and hookup the hdmi ports and you are good to go.

  Please link the the MFG web site when you list stuff.

  there is a link in this post with the name / model of the device, as it did not say where it went i thought it was to the Mfg but it's not.

  if you link to another site show that in the link perhaps with the name of the site like this:

• Silverlight TV 50: The State of Silverlight with Scott Guthrie

  Oct 24, 2010 at 7:45 AM

  too much windows phone ...  sorry but i need to see it out and in the hands of users. i need to see some sales and adoption trends... 

  RIA / WPF  - we need the RIA for SIlverlight work on WPF, yes you can tlak to RIA from WPF but the way you have to do that SUCKS and you lose a lot of what makes it worth using.

  SL V.Next and LightSwitch - we need the SQL report viewer control *MAJOR*  the lack of that is huge for making good LOB apps. not all clients have office installed, and  SQLRS in HTML has rendering flaws with some layouts.

  Hoping that PDC next week will start to reveal a CTP / Beta of SIlverlight 5  ...  and that MS gets to port SL to the i* devices .....

  hate to say it but we have a number of business openings for apps on the i* stuff and no one asking for WIndows Mobile stuff.

• Jay Schmelzer: Introducing Visual Studio LightSwitch

  Aug 05, 2010 at 5:39 PM

  Jay: I am very interested in using LightSwtch, we have MSDN and do a lot of stuff

  things that i think need to be lokked at are:

   

  1)  option to generate a std VS project with C# and xaml code ( many cases around why can be given)

  2)  option to create a "downlevel" client for non silverlight users (HTML) while the focus on silverlight is great there are users who will not be able to load silverlight but should be reached

  3) as the LightSwitch level is all meta data and models generation of WPF clients should be very doable once silverlight is out

  4)  SQL SERVER Reporting Services:  to complete a good SIlverlight LOB app we NEED a report view / print control!!

   

  if that list was covered then this would really really really ROCK!!!

   

  Waiting for the Beta and for a Go-Live i have a system i can re-do with this to remove a ton of old code!

  I also have a possible new app this would be perfect for.

  so far the *ONLY* thing i hear that i am not sure about is that it does not generate xaml files....

  I will have to use the beta to get a feel for how this works .....

   

  I would like to have the option to generate C# and Xaml  - if i find some problem with the canned code and need to tweak it.

   

  but i can see a *LOT* of cases where yeah this may well be the right thing w/o any custom coding.

   

  also what about having an option to do this for WPF / desktop applications??

  seems like a switch in the code gen could build a desktop form packgae to target the non-browser world also....
