  • Listening to DependencyProperty changes in Silverlight

    The dependency property system is a pretty nice concept. Receiving notifications for dependency property changes on an existing object is a very common scenario in order to update the view model or the UI.

    This is quite easy in WPF. But Silverlight has a limited set of meta-data functionality around the dependency property system, because the DependencyPropertyDescriptor does exist in Silverlight. In order to get a workaround Beat Kiener found a solution in which he gets notified with help of the binding system.

    Beat Kiener has posted about reducing the SOAP message in an additional way beside the binary encoding.  

    When communicating in a .NET to .NET messaging scenario then optimizing the data contracts is an additional way to reduce the SOAP message size. This together with binary encoding will reduce the message size about 4 times. Especially looking to the Windows Phone 7 development this will help much when the traffic goes over a low bandwidth network like GSM or UMTS.

  • Opening Microsoft Office documents with Silverlight

    In this post, Beat Kiener shares his experiences with opening a Microsoft Office document with Silverlight.

    From our Silverlight application we must be able to view documents. Documents are stored in an existing document management system and are accessible through a WCF REST service. It sounds very easy, but it was quite hard to understand all the stuff going on behind the Internet Explorer and the Microsoft Office.
