This blog post will show how to integrate the RadFileExplorer control for ASP.NET AJAX to work with SharePoint 2010 libraries. If you need a version for MOSS 2007, take a look at this earlier post. By default, the control interfaces with a virtual folder in your web application and allows you to do all kinds of file/folder operations (create new folders, upload/move/delete/rename items, preview, etc.). The default behavior of the control is limited to virtual folders that can be mapped to physical locations on the server's drives. SharePoint web applications use libraries to store documents/images and these libraries are only available from the SharePoint...
The organizers of the Richmond Code Camp rang in another successful event. Telerik was a sponsor of the event, and the .NET Ninja shirts and Ninja heads were flying all around! I was also a speaker at the event, delivering two successful talks that both received great feedback. The two talks that gave were “Lessons Learned: Being Agile in a Waterfall Sandbox” and “Delivering Cleaner Code with LINQ to Objects”. Both sessions had great interaction from the audience, and quite a few hallway conversations to boot. if you are interested in the content, you can download the slides and the code samples...
In our previous post we were able to utilize event triggers from System.Windows.Interactivity along with EventToCommand from MVVM Light to enable users to tap an item in our RadJumpList and then send a message out to perform some functionality – in our case, navigating to the page in question. But where does this message go and how is it received? And how can we add less than 8 lines of code to our application to give it a more native Window Phone look and feel as we’re navigating? That’s what this blog post is all about! We will start with those...
The internal build 1 of JustCode comes with three new refactorings to easily manipulate method parameters. Move to Parameter There are times when one has hardcoded a constant value within the body of a method, but the method would have more flexibility if the value were a parameter instead. This refactoring allows you to move the variable to a parameter, and it will automatically update calls to the method with the defined value for the variable. class Program{
static void Main(string[] args)
{
Ninja ninja = new Ninja();

For the past couple of days I've been playing with the way RadTreeView renders its items. To be honest, I wasn't looking for any particular outcome. I was doing it just for fun, hoping that something interesting might come out. And it did. I ended up with something quite interesting and it would be a shame not to share it.
Bellow are few screenshots which show the TreeView from its initial state to the point where its deepest item is expanded.
Note: I do lack certain designer skills :) The TreeView is bound to an XML data source which has the following...
Tomorrow I will be delivering a lecture at the NT Conference in beautiful Slovenia. My talk will be about one of my favorite topics as of late: Proper usage of data visualization in your dashboard and business applications “Many dashboards and business apps we see every day suffer from poor design causing them to fail their primary purpose: to convey a lot of information in a small amount of space in a manner that is clear and immediate. If you attend this lecture you will learn how to avoid the most common mistakes in data visualization and will gain valuable insight on how to...
Following the first webinar in our Windows Phone Wednesdays webinar series, I’m happy to say that the recording is online and ready to view on-demand! You can check it out on Telerik TV here: http://tv.telerik.com/watch/windows-phone/windows-phone-7-azure-webinar Also to note for those who are in attendance, I re-recorded the portion where the Windows Phone 7 emulator was having display issues so that you can really take in the whole experience of adding data to your application and enhancing the app by using the RadJumpList control. Sorry for the trouble, the display issues when presenting a webinar are hit or miss, last series for me...
This weekend, Telerik sponsored the SharePoint Saturday event in Brisbane, Australia (#SPSBNE). The terrible day of Rapture (Thousands said goodbye to family and friends ahead of 6pm Saturday deadline) was on this day and it was all over the news. So I was a bit worried if I should spend the last day of the world here, but Mike Rhodes had said we had lots of great speakers and I was looking forward to meeting them. Figure: I could not resist the temptation to see those speakers The day started out with a bang and it went from strength to strength. I found it was...
TechEd 2011 was another great event. We had a lot of traffic at the Telerik booth, giving away a huge amount of T-Shirts and Ninja head stress balls, showed a ton of demos of our software, and had great conversations with not only customers but people discerning what to buy. I was also busy working the “Ask the Architect” booth in the Microsoft Technical Learning Center, and I gave two Birds of a Feather sessions, and both were a great success. Agile Development: Can it Work For Everyone This session I gave in conjunction with Mario Cardinal, another thought leader in the agile space. ...
