TeamPulse Q2 Service Pack 1 Is Here
The TeamPulse team is very excited to announce the availability of our first service pack! The service pack has taken us a little longer than we had hoped to produce; however, we’re positive it was worth it. Here is a summary of some of the changes introduced by the Service Pack. Deleting a Project This feature is somewhat self-explanatory – we now give you the ability to delete your projects. This is a permanent operation and the only way to undo this operation is by restoring your TeamPulse database.May 27, 2021 2 min read -

Output Caching and Telerik Extensions for MVC
When we pushed out Telerik TV, we ran into an interesting style issue. We were using output caching on our index page to save the server a little work. However, sometimes when a user navigated to tv.telerik.com/home it would look like this: This problem would only manifest itself on the production server, and shockingly there were no errors! By looking at the source of the page we quickly realized that neither the StyleSheetRegistrar, nor the ScriptRegistrar were outputting anything at all. This made it clear that the Render method on the StyleSheetRegistrar / ScriptRegistrar was not firing, or something was causing them... -

5+ Ways to Reduce your .Xap Size
Being Silverlight developer means that we are also kind of web developers. From this point of view, we also have to think about the web traffic that our applications generate. We need to reduce it as much as possible. So basically we need to reduce the size of the application's output - the .xap file. In this post I'll try to summarize the five ways to reduce the size of a xap that I've shared today with Sofia's Silverlight User Group.

Integrating with TeamPulse
Note: A successor to this blog post has been written focusing on authenticating to the data service. You can read it here. Because TeamPulse makes it very easy to enter and track information regarding your project, users will find that they very quickly will have a large repository of valuable information in the TeamPulse data store. Due to the complex and integrated nature of most teams, rarely does information stay within one repository. It often needs to be digested and shared in many different ways and to many different people. Although TeamPulse has a rich visual aggregation of information ...May 27, 2021 3 min read -

Creating a WCF RIA Services Application
With the release of WCF RIA Services, Microsoft has made it much easier to implement multi-tier Silverlight based applications. Data resides in a database on the server and is accessible through the use of an ORM such as Entity Framework or OpenAccess. WCF RIA Services takes care of moving this data between the server and the client application by using Domain Services in conjunction with the ORM. As you may already know, Telerik Reporting includes a WCF based service responsible for rendering and serving up reports. This service however, is not based on WCF RIA Services, so a few ...May 27, 2021 7 min read -

It’s Been A Long Run
[Cross posted from .NET Musings] I worked my first paying job involving computers in 1984. After a degree in computer science from the school of engineering at Washington University in St. Louis, I started quite the run as a computer consultant. My first jobs involved building custom computers and networks and programming the computers! I’ve had a fabulous career as a consultant, and worked with a lot of fantastic people. But I realized a while ago that I wanted to be something else when I grow up. I just had no idea what that was. In 1995, I started as a volunteer for...
