Those last few weeks I had "silently" been struggling with CAB and Smart Client Software Factory (SCSF).
Many had talked about how notoriously CAB is. Well they were right. I think that CAB with SCSF is really confusing, there is no real examples of SCSF and many times you need to extrapolate CAB samples to SCSF.
A light in the dark are Rich Newman excellent blog posts about CAB and SCSF.
Today I had my first experience with CAG-f-WPF, and god, I was surprised no to say in awe, the documentation is finally at the level of Enterprise Library, dreadful WorkItems are nowhere to be found, Workspace term is replaced by much more meaningful term "Region", all the attributes are gone, things looks more solid and traceable.
Of course it is heavily using IoC and injections to decouple stuff but after CAB and SCSF it is a walk in the park.
So, I've got to say, well done to PnP team.
Don't afraid to use it, try it out, next thing you know, you will never see a constructor gets a null parameter! :)
As I progress, I intent to give some more info.
