Overview .NET is great platform, it speeds up the development process, you deal with your application logic and in most cases you don't need to know that there is whole Windows operating system down there. However sometimes you do need to program against Windows without the .NET assistance. As a Windows developer, you need to keep all your weapons ready, be it .NET, COM or C++ with the native Win32 API. In this article I am going to show how to deal with Windows Message based communication protocol...

In the last Dev Academy I have given a lecture in the TDM (R&D Manager) track about Software Porting, The Why, When, and How. During the lecture I have talked about many different migration scenarios: from VB 6.0 to C#/VB.NET. From VC++ 6.0 to VC 2008/2010, From Unix/Linux to Windows, From old .NET to new .NET etc. I have talked about the porting project, best practices and tools. This is the link to the lecture’s slides. There are many useful links inside it. This is the link to the lecture...

Come and join Pavel and me to the first meeting of the Windows Platform Developers user group . If the Windows platform is interesting you (and it probably does, otherwise you won’t be reading this post) you have to come. This is the chance to influence the spirit of the group. Pavel and I wanted to have a group for people like us. Those who develop for Windows with any needed tool, not just .NET or C++ but both and even more. The first meeting will be about Windows NT 6.1, this is the shortest way...

As the co-author of the “ Introducing Windows® 7 for Developers ” book I wrote the two chapters about the new Windows Ribbon Framework. The first Ribbon chapter deals with the Ribbon markup language and the second chapter deals with the code behind. To let the reader the ability to understand and play with the markup language before reading the code behind chapter, I have created an open source project named RibbonExpolorer . The Ribbon team from Microsoft has also created such a tool named...

Moving applications to new platform is not an easy decision to make. Sometimes you have no choice, new desktops and laptops run the new operating system and you have to support your clients. Sometimes you do have a choice, you install your application with the system and you can choose the operating system that your code will run on. There are two factors in this dilemma: first is the investment effort on making the application compatible with the new O/S comparing to the benefit (ROI). Second is...

During the last few months a small team from Sela , has developed course materials, exercises and demos for the DPE Metro Program, that show how to develop with the new features of Windows 7. As you may know, all of the new feature of the system are exposed to native developer, using Win32 API and COM. To use C# and .NET we developed set of wrappers. Sasha developed the Taskbar wrappers, and also wrote about it in his blog. Dima developed the Sensor & Location Platform wrappers and I developed...

Technorati Tags: COM+ , WCF , Architecture , C++ , SOA , .NET For all of you who have been at my lecture I hope that you enjoyed and that you have learned few new things, If you didn't get my message, here is a summary: Think about the future, the present is the past of the future. Invest in the architecture. Decoupling is the name of the game, always was and always will be. Know your framework roadmap. New technologies make decoupling easier. Using WCF interoperabilities lets you re-use old...
