Users customize promotional material, business cards, and fliers using the QuarkPromote. Users get the Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF) client from the website. The thick client allows users to view and customize templates and then print the hiqh quality materials at nearby print shops.

Paul Heal, Sr. Software Developer at Quark, talks with Bruce Kyle, ISV Architect Evangelist, about how he and his team added jump lists, task bar, and progress bar to the application. He explains that it took a half day effort for his team.

And with the new versions of the code pack, you no longer provide code that figures out if it should work in a previous operating system. So without code changes, the application runs on XP, Vista, and Windows 7.

  • One member on his team told me it was literally five lines of code to add support for the progress bar.
  • Jump list items that John shows directs the user to various features on the website. items that John shows directs the user to various features on the website.
  • Thumbnails show the content user is editing rather than the entire screen, which is the default thumbnail in Windows 7 that shows the entire application window.

Paul shows the features in action in the latest version of QuarkPromote.

He demonstrates how to use a Domain Service to expose your domain model and how to create a custom service method to further filter your data server side. Nikhil also shows how the Domain Services generates validation rules using the database attributes such as required fields or maximum string lengths. Other topics Nikhil covers:

  • Domain service generated services and validation
  • Custom service methods
  • Adding your own validation attributes
  • Creating custom validation methods for server and client
  • Creating cross property validation in an entity
  • Creating server only validation that may be called asynchronously from the client
  • Showing validation errors to the user
