Session description:
Why should you care about adding a groundbreaking User Experience to your applications?
Answering that question (in style!) is where we'll begin, and this developer-oriented presentation will proceed on a whistlestop tour of the Windows Presentation Foundation, formerly codenamed Avalon.
WPF allows you to leverage the power of your local PC and managed languages (including Visual Basic.NET) to provide a unified framework for next-generation user interface, media, documents, and even 3D graphics.
Until WPF, incorporating those concepts has effectively been the dark art of the game development shop. No more!
- We'll look at the WPF unified architecture, and then dive into several specific developer concepts you'll need to know to get started building applications.
- We'll explore the declarative markup language XAML and how it maps to your VB.NET code, and show how it is being used to facilitate tools that will bring designers into the development picture.
- We'll look at the concepts of Styles and data binding for your controls.
- We'll move through animation, talk about interop with classic WinForms, and if time permits, we'll even get a glimpse at adding video and 3D.
Finally, the presentation will conclude with links to useful resources for getting started with WPF, hooking into the community, and learning more.

Session description:
In this webcast we create a real world windows forms application with Visual Basic 2005. Whilst creating that sample application you gradually get to know some of the new features of Visual Basic 2005. You learn how you can use these features to create applications quickly, and besides you experience new ways to reduce coding effort. We start with covering syntax enhancements in VB 2005, and while the application is growing we move on to more advanced topics like generics and the my namespace. To speed up development time you will see the usage of code-snippets and the new controls, tools and techniques to make windows forms applications with databinding easier. At the end of the session you find out how to debug a Visual Basic application, and how easy it is to deploy your application with ClickOnce.
