The EntitySpaces team blog about their recent support of totally dynamic data binding under Silverlight.

We have managed to pull off something incredibly cool. We now support totally dynamic data binding under Silverlight. EntitySpaces has been gaining a lot of Silverlight fans lately as it really simplifies writing Silverlight applications and our serializable Dynamic Queries under Silverlight just rock. What we have done is akin to implementing ITypedList support for Silverlight (fancy databinding).

David Anson blogged about what's included with the just out February 2010 release of the WPF Toolkit.

The WPF Toolkit team has just published the February 2010 release of the WPF Toolkit! In addition to a variety of bug fixes for DataGrid, DatePicker, Calendar, and Visual State Manager, this release also includes the latest changes to the Data Visualization assembly for Silverlight and WPF, bringing the official WPF implementation up to date with the November 2009 release of the Silverlight Toolkit.

If you have a page that contains a lot of information for users to enter, you can run into a problem where their authentication will “time out”. Usually this authentication is set to expire after 20 minutes of “inactivity” (the user has not submitted a request to the web server). The problem is that if they, for example, click the Save button after their authentication has expired, their content is not saved and they are logged out of the site instead.
