Product Description

This guide provides everything you need to get started with Prism and to use it to create flexible, maintainable Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF) and Microsoft Silverlight 4.0 applications.

It can be challenging to design and build WPF or Silverlight client applications that are flexible, maintainable, and that can evolve over time based on changing requirements. These kinds of applications require a loosely coupled modular architecture that allows individual parts of the application to be independently developed and tested, allowing the application to be modified or extended later on. Additionally, the architecture should promote testability, code re-use, and flexibility.

Prism helps you to design and build flexible and maintainable WPF and Silverlight applications by using design patterns that support important architectural design principles, such as separation of concerns and loose coupling. This guide helps you understand these design patterns and describes how you can use Prism to implement them in your WPF or Silverlight applications.

This guide will show you how to use Prism to implement the Model-View-View-Model (MVVM) pattern in your application, and how to use it along with commands and interaction requests to encapsulate application logic and make it testable. It will show you how to split an application into separate functional modules that can communicate through loosely coupled events, and how to integrate those modules into the overall application. It will show you how to dynamically construct a flexible user interface by using regions, and how to implement rich navigation across a modular application. Prism allows you to use these design patterns together or in isolation, depending on your particular application requirements.

Windows Workflow Foundation is part of the Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5. Is this series of lessons we will understand how to develop a Page-flow solution using ASP.NET and Windows Workflow Foundation.In this lesson we will learn how to invoke an event inside the workflow from the ASP.NET Application. We are going to understand how the communication between the workflow and the host application works and understand how to use the Manual Scheduler Service after invoking an event in the Workflow from the ASP.NET Application using the Handle External Event Activity. This is the last lesson of the series and the workflow will be executed from the begin until the end. After the demo we are going to make a brief review about all the steps in developing a Page flow Solution. Technologies Used: Windows Workflow Foundation, .NET Framework 3.5, Visual Studio 2008.

Windows Workflow Foundation is part of the Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5. Is this series of lessons we will understand how to develop a Page-flow solution using ASP.NET and Windows Workflow Foundation. In this lesson we are going to learn how to create a communication channel between the workflow library and the ASP.NET Application. In this lesson we are going to implement the contract that we created in the lesson 2 and with this implementation we are creating our PageflowService. This service is the responsible for managing the events pageflow events and methods called from the workflow library. In this lesson, we are also, creating a WorkflowRuntime Wrapper class. The WorkflowRuntime is the responsible for managing workflow instances and workflow services. We are going to understand how to manage the Workflow runtime in an ASP.NET application, it means, when and where to create it and where to store it. Technologies Used: Windows Workflow Foundation, .NET Framework 3.5, Visual Studio 2008.
