Hierarchy Load On Demand With RadGridView for Silverlight, MVVM and OData
Similar to this post, I’ve made small example on how to load on demand RadGridView for Silverlight three level hierarchy using MVVM and OData service: XAML <telerik:RadGridView ItemsSource="{Binding CustomersCollection}" AutoGenerateColumns="False"> <telerik:RadGridView.Columns> … </telerik:RadGridView.Columns> <telerik:RadGridView.ChildTableDefinitions> <telerik:GridViewTableDefinition /> </telerik:RadGridView.ChildTableDefinitions> <telerik:RadGridView.HierarchyChildTemplate> <DataTemplate> <telerik:RadGridView ItemsSource="{Binding OrdersCollection}" AutoGenerateColumns="False"> ... -

SP1 Brings RadRichTextBox to TeamPulse
The first release of TeamPulse used Microsoft's Rich Text control to enable rich formatting inside the Story, Persona and Acceptance Criteria descriptions. It offered a good variety of basic formatting options, but nothing like what is now offered by upgrading to the RadRichTextBox control. By using the RadRichTextBox, we effectively have a mini word processor built right into TeamPulse allowing you to create even richer descriptions. Getting Started What? You don't see the Text Tools contextual tab? Click your mouse inside any of the rich text fields in TeamPulse and you'll see the contextual tab appear in the application's ...May 27, 2021 4 min read -

Silverlight 4 memory leaks, Telerik controls and a solution
As most of the people doing XAML development already know Silverlight 4 shipped at Mix 10 this year. This official release contained a lot of issues (memory leaks included) and it was a reasonable decision for Microsoft to postpone their GDR (general distribution release – the one that comes with Windows Update) version. A few weeks ago, Microsoft finally shipped the GDR. One of the things all developers hoped for was a resolution to the known memory leaks. The GDR did fix a lot of memory leaks, however, it did not address all of them and there are still some... -

Mocking SPContext.Current with JustMock
Today, I happen to find an interesting post on mocking SharePoint context using TypeMock. Being a JustMocker, i thought rather to follow the footsteps and see if can do the same with JustMock. I am no SharePoint expert. Occasionally, I use a Windows 2003 VM with SharePoint server installed which gives me the required flavor of SharePoint for testing SP capabilities of JM. Anyway, here is the original post that i am going to recycle using JustMock. http://meronymy.blogspot.com/2010/09/mocking-spcontextcurrent-with-typemock.html The scenario here is pretty simple. There is a method that returns an URL from the current SPContext which i am going to mock in order...May 27, 2021 1 min read -

[repost from Stephen Forte's Blog] See also: Part I: When to build your data warehouse Part II: Building a new schema In Part I we looked at the advantages of building a data warehouse independent of cubes/a BI system and in Part II we looked at how to architect a data warehouse’s table schema. Today we are going to look at where to put your data warehouse tables. Let’s look at the location of your data warehouse. Usually as your system matures, it follows this pattern: Segmenting your data warehouse tables into their own isolated schema inside of the OLTP database Moving the data warehouse... -

Changing the Ports TeamPulse Uses
By default TeamPulse makes use of ports 9897, 9898, and 9899 for access to the User Management, TeamPulse, and Integration sites and services. In some cases those ports may be in use by another application, or otherwise restricted within your environment, making it necessary for a change to these defaults. With TeamPulse SP1 it's a fairly simple task to change the ports via modifications to a couple of configuration files, which we will show below. We do recommend, however, that anyone uncomfortable with editing config files have their system administrator help to make these changes. Part 1: IIS Configuration...May 27, 2021 3 min read -

RadGridView for WinForms – Getting Started with Virtual Mode
Every once in a while, someone asks me "What’s the best way to bind 1,000,000+ records to RadGridView?” The first thought that pops into my head is, “Why in the world would you want to do that?” But – as there is always a reason for everything, good or bad, I typically go ahead and answer this question by suggesting the use of Virtual Mode. Virtual Mode allows you to implement your own data management operations for RadGridView. This means, instead of setting radGridView1.DataSource = bagillions of objects, you can intelligently manage how objects are loaded and cached ...May 27, 2021 4 min read -

Getting Started with LightSwitch and OpenAccess – Part 3
In my last blog we learned how to create an OpenAccess Domain Service that can be consumed by LightSwitch. In this post we will continue down this path, and get the service loaded as a data source in a LightSwitch application. Adding the Service Our first task today is to add a LightSwitch Project to our solution. Do this through the standard “Add New Project” dialog. You should see “LightSwitch” as one of the installed templates in the tree view on the left. Select C#/VB, give the project a name, and click Ok. Our solution explorer should now look like this: Right click on “Data...May 27, 2021 3 min read
