We are continuing to create contents that help to explain the new features of Windows 7 to the developers' community. This time we record set of short screen casts that include a presentation and one or two demos. To create those screen casts we have distributed the work between different people at Sela . Each person creates the presentation and the demos. This goes to Redmond for feedbacks. When they approve the content Sasha does the actual recording. So, last Wednesday I had to build the material...

39,000 feet, no Internet, no phones, on the way to PDC 09. I am sitting in the plain with Sela COO, which also happens to be my brother (Nepotism!). This is the first time in this week that we can relax and enjoy the flight, yes it is sound strange but I hope that it will be a looooong flight. This is not my first PDC, actually this is the third time that I attend the conference. However the numbers of attendees from Sela rise exponentially. In 2005 there were two of us ( Noam King and myself), last...
Anyone that missed the Windows Platform Developers user group meeting and the lecture about kernel changes in Windows NT 6.1 (I know at least about someone that asked me about a video recording of the event) don’t worry. In the coming SDP event, Dima and I will have a lecture about the internal of Windows 7 & Server 2008 R2 and about the new changes and enhancements of the system. This is the agenda: 29/12/2009 (11:00-12:15) Server Side (SSD101) Come and explore the engine of Windows NT...

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...

I own a Dual CPU Pentium III computer. This machine is 10 years old. I used to take it to companies back in the beginning of the millennium to teach about multi CPU programming. I have also developed and tested device drivers on it. around 2004 I began to use it as a gateway to my home automation system. It runs Windows XP with all my home automation related applications and code that I have developed. The machine became very noisy, I have replaced all the fans and put some oil but still the decibel...

We are going to the PDC . And when I say we, I mean 17 experts and 3 managers from Sela . This year we are going to be in all sessions and meet many key professionals from Microsoft and other companies. We will also have a booth . Why do I tell you that? Not just to tell you that it is fun to work at Sela (It is, but it is also very demanding) and that we are investing in our people, but to announce that we are going to talk about all current and new technologies that will be revealed in the PDC...

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...

Windows 7 introduces a new Windows Ribbon framework, a framework that enables creating of a modern rich user interface and user experience based on the Office 2007 fluent UI concepts. The Windows Ribbon framework adopted the Model-View-Controller pattern. The UI is written using XAML like language, the controller is a COM based code and the Model is your business logic. To enable developing the Ribbon markup we have created the Ribbon Explorer program. These are the feature of Ribbon...
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...

I have finished a Windows Internal course this week at Taldor. Windows Internal is a very special course. Usually when you go to a course, you know what the direct benefit is. You go to C# course; you will learn how to code in C#. You go to WPF, you … got the point. When you take the Windows Internal course, you just become better Windows user, Administrator and Programmer . After the course you have the feeling that you know the system. You know how it is built; you know what's going inside...

In these days I am finishing writing the second chapter of two in a book about Windows 7 Developmen t. I have joined the other authors of the book to assist and I am writing about developing the Windows Ribbon . The first chapter deals with the XAML language of the native Ribbon, while the second chapter deals with the code behind. The first chapter is already went to the editor. About couple of days ago, I have got a mail from the editor that says that other writers found some differences between...
We have released the Beta 1.0 of Ribbon Explorer , A win7 application which takes a ribbon markup (XML) and shows the resulting ribbon. The application compiles the Ribbon XML, (UICC.exe, RC.exe Link.exe). loads it and instantiate a window with the resulting Ribbon. The application controls the Ribbon and shows the Ribbon events. Features: Read a Ribbon markup file which its full path is provided in the first argument of the command line. Enable editing of the supply XML file, or a new XML file Show...

More of our work is available to download. Microsoft has published the Windows 7 training kit . the kit includes the PowerPoint decks, the demos and HOLs. This is a great way to learn the new and cool features of Windows 7. The kit was developed by Yochay Kiriaty (DPE Redmond) with a lot of work of Dima, Sasha and myself. We took the PDC 2008 slides, fixed them, added new information, developed new demos and created new Hands-On-Lab for most of the features. Microsoft will soon publish another demo...
