Isolated Storage en Silverlight

Channel9Spain — Thu, 19 Nov 2009 19:22:00 GMT

Nos encontramos ante un nuevo video de Alejandro Hidalgo, en el que nos habla del Isolated Storage. En caso de que necesitemos guardar datos de nuestra aplicación Silverlight de forma permanente podemos usar el Isolated Storage. El cual nos aporta un sistema de ficheros virtual cuya localización en disco estará ofuscada. Esto nos puede servir para guardar en cliente datos y recursos de gran tamaño que puedan ser reutilizados durante la sesión actual del usuario o la siguiente.

Prism & Silverlight: Part 10 - A Larger Example - "Email Client"

Mike Taulty — Tue, 27 Oct 2009 10:31:00 GMT

This is part 10 of a series of screencasts illustrating some of the ideas found in "Prism" or the "Composite Application Guidance" from the Patterns and Practices team that can be used to build Silverlight applications in a way that lends itself to testability and modularity.

In talking to customers building business applications with Silverlight I find that Prism (and it's friend Unity) is frequently mentioned but not everyone has seen it and so I thought I would explore it myself and capture some of the results of that exploration here.

We start off with some fairly basic code which we move towards making use of dependency injection and modularity;

and then we move that code into the Silverlight world and try to illustrate some specific areas of Prism;

and then finally we try and bring some of these concepts together in a longer, more realistic example of a simple Email application built using the Prism framework - warning, this is a much longer session but I wanted something that draws things together;

Part 10: A Larger Example: "Email Client"

The recommendation would be that you watch the 10 screencasts in order but if that feels like too long a process or if you're already very familiar with concepts like dependency injection and containers like Unity then perhaps watch the last screencast first and then refer back to the previous screencasts if certain areas need more illumination.

I put the source code for Video 10 here for download as it's a bigger set of source and something you might want to explore after the video - this does not necessarily represent "best practise" but is, instead, just meant to illustrate some of the Prism ideas.
