    Populating Silverlight TreeView from WCF Service with LINQ to SQL

    In this example I will show you how to populate a RadTreeView using LINQ and WCF. Also you will see how to transform a flat data into a hierarchical one. The target result is: 1. Create a new Silverlight Web Application Project NOTE: Make sure you choose "Web Application Project" After the project loads you can see that besides the regular Silverlight application, Visual Studio adds a Web application that will host the .xap file.   Before writing any LINQ or creating any WCF service, we need a database to target. 2. Right-click on RadTreeViewWithWCFWeb project and add a new item - "SQL Server Database". You can give the...

    dotNetRegister: Requirements

    Before we can begin any serious coding of the recently introduced "dotNetRegister" reference app, we need to define some some requirements. As with any good agile development effort, I want to create a backlog of features that need to be implemented and then prioritize development from there. I even intend to work on this application in sprints, though clearly, as a part time project, I don't expect to have a stellar burn-down rate. ASIDE: If any of these agile terms- like backlog, sprint, or burn-down rate- are unfamiliar to you, I highly encourage you to spend a little time becoming more...

    Client-Side Data Binding in the RadGrid

    Over the past several weeks I started a new video series, called RadTips, which demonstrates how to use specific features of Telerik controls. The first four episodes of the series was dedicated to the new client-side data binding feature of the RadGrid for ASP.NET AJAX. This feature is only available with the RadControls for ASP.NET AJAX Q2 2008, our latest release of the control suite. Each episode showed how to implement a specific RadGrid feature when binding to data on the client. If you haven't had a chance to watch them, I highly recommend taking a few minutes to check...

    RadTips, Episode 4: Client-Side Filtering in the RadGrid

    I am pleased to bring you another exciting episode of RadTips. In this episode, I show how to enable filtering when using the new client-side data binding feature of the RadGrid for ASP.NET AJAX (Q2 2008). But what's cool about this (and past) episodes is that it includes some other fun ASP.NET goodies. For instance, instead of binding to data from SQL Server, I use LINQ to XML to bind to data from an XML file. In this episode I also take advantage of LINQ's Dynamic Query Library to create a more dynamic LINQ query to filter data with. So be...
