    Quite some time ago we touched upon the details of the caches maintained by Telerik OpenAccess ORM in the these 2 blog posts – First Level Cache, Second Level Cache.  In this post we will provide some more information about the ‘Query result cache’ which is held as a part of the 2nd Level Cache.   What is the Query Results Cache ? When you execute a LINQ query to fetch some objects from the database there are quite a few things that take place in the background before you actually get back the result. Let’s list some basic actions that are...

    We were expecting TechEd in Atlanta will be a blast, and Day 1 proves it.

    Twitter Chat on JustDecompile – Join the Beta Conversation!

    At TechEd North America 2011 yesterday, we officially announced the Beta launch of JustDecompile – a powerful .NET decompiler, which we are committed to keeping free, forever, for everyone. Since the pre-launch two weeks ago, when we unveiled the very first Beta version, we have witnessed enormous interest in JustDecompile as the community has acclaimed Telerik for stepping up and providing a free .NET decompiler to fill a very conspicuous market gap. Naturally, with enormous interest, come a lot of questions, too. Thus, due to popular demand, we have organized a Twitter chat to get all of your questions answered. Join the...

    Migrating Reflector’s Lists to JustDecompile ones

    If you (like me) were a heavy Reflector user you will probably like the tool that I’m going to share with you today. It is a very simple WPF application that allows you to migrate your existing Reflector's list to their JustDecompile equivalents. Usage is pretty straight forward. You just™ point the app to your Reflector’s installation folder and it will take care of the rest. You can download the tool here. Any feedback: bugs and feature requests is more than welcome. Let's finish with a rhyme: Let the force of a freely decompiled source guide you in your course. ...

    Windows Phone 7 MVVM #2 - RadJumpList

    After finishing the previous post, I realize something important – I would rather use RadJumpList than RadDataBoundListBox for my navigation in this application, simply because the “People Hub” type of experience is much cooler than a plain old listbox, regardless of how impressive the performance is.  We are also going to reconsider our MyItem and turn it into something a little more exciting – MyMVVMItem!  This will allow us to do add every new demo as an individual item, complete with a field for grouping, a friendly name, and a backing field for the name of the page that we...
