Here is a Christmas present for you (a bit late for Christmas but you will enjoy it anyway)! We have recently released a new page on our website which will give you access to our latest internal builds. These are the distributions built automatically from our source repository and include all latest fixes (new features are usually not included). Regular builds are integral part of our development process and based on continuous QA and feedback we strive to produce the most stable releases possible. If you have experienced any problem with the current official distributions there is a possibility that ...

First, I would like to wish you all Happy New Year! Hope it brings you everything you have asked for!

You could see my other blog posts for examples with web service binding and upgrade the application to suit your needs. To accomplish the requirements, we need to add a property that will contain the edited data item on the UserControl. When the selection in the TreeView changes, we will update that property with the new selection and then open the RadWindow. The UserControl will create a copy of the data item...

I would like to introduce a new endeavor called "Edge Of Dev". The Edge Of Dev will essentially be me sharing video content that I capture from around the development community.  This may be interviews, presentations, open spaces or other content of interest.  My hope is that the Edge Of Dev will provide an additional resource for relevant technical information to help you stay informed about what is happening in the development community.  The first episode is available on the Edge of Dev website (http://www.edgeofdev.com) so I hope you will take a moment to check it out. This week I am at...
