    MicroModels for Silverlight

    Last week I was impressed by Paul Stovell’s marvelous project – MicroModels. In a nutshell a micro model is a view model over your objects, which allow you to define dynamic properties, collection and commands. You can read more about it in Paul’s introductory blog post here. Despite its great features, “MicroModels” has one big limitation - it does not run in Silverlight. And this is where my journey began. My mission was to port the code to Silverlight with little to no modifications. Porting the code to Silverlight The task was not an easy one, but after a lot of head scratching...

    Filtering GridViewComboBoxColumn in RadGridView for WPF

      GridViewComboBox column is used to display lookup data in user friendly manner. For our demo we bind RadGridView for WPF to a collection of custom Location objects.       As you may notice – each location has a selectable Country field.  Here is the underlying ‘data model’.   public class Location { public int CountryID { get; set; } public string CityName { get; set; } } public class Country { public int ID { get; set; } public string Name { get; set; } }   The location object contains the integer CountryID.Each CountryID corresponds to a certain country and with the help of GridViewComboBoxColumn we see some human readable country names instead of the...

    JustCode. What's the benefit of having solution wide analysis?

    When I originally announced JustCode in an earlier post, I described its solution wide analysis feature as "it’s like having a compiler running all the time with the only difference being that it runs much faster." This is, of course, only true to an extent but as this is the major feature of JustCode I’ve decided to write a separate blog post describing, in detail, just how this feature can help you. I’ve also decided to split this blog post into several parts covering each of the different platforms support by JustCode as the solution wide analysis works differently depending on the...

    Handling multiple database connections with Telerik OpenAccess ORM

    Very often it is necessary to work simultaneously with more than one database. In such cases it is recommended that each database is mapped to a separate class model residing in its own assembly. The object scopes that handle the persistent objects should be obtained from an instance of the Database class which represents particular database on the server. To make this process easier Telerik OpenAccess ORM generates a helper class named ObjectScopeProvider. How to benefit from this class will be described later in this post. To explain practically how to configure the Visual Studio projects, consider the case of having...

    Telerik Wins the Red Herring Global 100 Award

    Telerik has been named to the Red Herring Global 100 Award list.  The Global 100 is Red Herring’s list of the top 100 privately held global tech companies. This is like the Fortune 500 list but for tech. This is a huge deal, past award winners include Google, Yahoo!, Skype, Netscape, Salesforce.com, and YouTube. Telerik is an Eastern European company with headquarters in Sofia, Bulgaria and the only company on the Red Herring Global 100 from the former “Soviet Block.” That the company's founders grew up under communism and last week were speaking at the Red Herring 100 award ceremony about capitalism, innovation, and technology is totally awesome.
