    Internationalization/Globalization in Silverlight 4

    I recently published a blog post series on the Silverlight Show site regarding Internationalization/Globalization in Silverlight. As a follow up to this series, I would like to address a couple of Telerik-specific approaches to this topic. One thing to note is that the source code that I have attached above is written in Silverlight 4, using VisualStudio 2010 Beta 2, so if you are developing with Silverlight 3 you could copy the code into a Silverlight 3 solution.  In part 5 of the Silverlight Show series I provided a step-by-step example of how to set up an internationalized version of a...

    Silverlight Recruiting Application Part 2 - Prism, MVVM, and the Challenge

    For anyone who tuned into part 1 of this series, there was an interesting comment from Ben (one of the Telerik MVPs who also shows up quite often with intelligent commentary in a variety of locations) about the idea of using Prism, MVVM, and WCF RIA together in their current state.  This actually fell in line with a number of other conversations I have had with developers over the last few weeks and I realized something very important- he's quite right about the state of things.  Much like 7 is the magic number for Windows, 4 is going to be the magic...

    WCF RIA Services + RadControls for Silverlight Q3 SP1

    For anyone who has been paying attention, Microsoft has announced a fair number of changes and new things for us to play with over the past few weeks, suspiciously all surrounding the PDC conference in LA.  One of the biggest announcements was the Silverlight 4 beta, which I know we're all anxiously playing with, but the other was the (much needed) overhaul to .Net RIA Services, which has been re-branded as WCF Ria Services. So what's in a new name?  Well a host of improvements, but our friend Brad Abrams covered that more than well in his Welcome to WCF RIA Services...

    The Telerik Menu

    The Telerik Visual Studio Extensions are now included in the RadControls for ASP.NET AJAX and RadControls for Silverlight installers in order to make the development of applications with Telerik RadControls faster and easier. The main entry point for the Visual Studio Extensions is the Telerik menu. It is context sensitive and changes its state depending on the projects you are working on. 1) Create New Telerik Project menu item This state can be observed when no solution is opened or the currently selected project is not suitable for use with RadControls. Using the Create New Telerik Project menu item you can create a new Telerik Project with...
