In my previous post Convert VS 11 Beta Metro Projects To VS 2012 RC I talked about upgrading the Project file from Beta to RC, in this post I’ll try to talk about all changes made from Beta to RC. I don’t know all the breaking changes in JavaScript and C# but I collect all the breaking changes from the application and games I develop and I’ll show them here. JavaScript + HTML Type Old Value New Value Comment Event MSGestureTap onclick Event MSGestureHold oncontextmenu Method getPointerList...
Over the last months I’ve worked a lot with Windows 8 Metro applications, from Consumer Preview to Preview 2 and now to RC. When working on Beta versions you know that you have to upgrade your app when RC or RTM versions will published, and sometime those upgrades can take a while… So this is the first part of upgrading your Project from Visual Studio 11 Beta to Visual Studio 2012 RC, in my next post I’ll talk about code Changes from Beta to RC both for C# and JavaScript. JavaScript For JavaScript...
Tweet In my previous post “ Teams and Team Members ” I talked about new Service in TFS API called – TfsTeamService. Using this service we can control Teams and Team Members under TFS. We can create and remove Teams and Team Members using TFS API. I know this can be quite confusing but Teams in TFS are simply Group (Security Group), same as Contributors, Administrators etc. If you open Security tab under TFS Web Management you can see that there is two separate lists of Groups – Teams and TFS...
Tweet Everyone who start developing for Windows 8 most heard about the AppBar control, the AppBar control is a navigation bar allowing the developer to add commands for his application. When you define a command for AppBar you can set a Icon for it and there is already a lot of icons available for you out of the box in any Metro app. To use those built it icons in C# and JavaScript you just need to set the font-family to - Segoe UI Symbol and write down the hexadecimal value of the icon. Because...
Tweet I think this is a most tool for any blogger out there, most of my posts contains Source Code examples and pasting Source Code without Colors and Format is just ugly. In Visual Studio 2010 Microsoft released the Productivity Tools that has the Copy Source Code as Html built in, also there is a CodePlex project - http://copysourceashtml.codeplex.com/ that supports Visual Studio 2005 and 2008. Because Productivity Tools for Visual Studio 11 Beta isn’t out yet I’ve modified the CopySourceAsHtml...
Tweet Over the last posts I talked about basic features in Windows 8 Metro Apps in BLOCKED SCRIPT Settings Message Dialog Splash Screen The feature I’m going to show you now isn’t part of JavaScript Metro app and you need to write some code and use Metro Touch Event called – MSPointerMove. The feature I’m going to simulate is Pinch - Download Demo Project In this post I’ve created a Pinch functionality to increase and decrease zoom on specific item. Step 1: Create JavaScript Metro Project In the...
Tweet In my previous post I talked about App Settings , and now it’s time to talk about on of the most important things – Message Dialog. Download Demo Project I’ve already saw people who wrote overlay div to show messages, just because they didn’t find how to add more buttons for the Message Dialog, so let me show you how- Using the WinRT you can use the MessageDialog to popup a message to the user: var msg = new Windows.UI.Popups.MessageDialog( "Message Content" , "Your Message Title"...
Tweet I consider myself a calm person with plenty of tolerance, I believe in productive discussion and love it – Part of my job as a consultant is to talk with Teams and explain them why you should choose a specific product over another, in 99.9% of those meetings there is one guy that don’t like the change (No One Like Changes) and you need in a calm way to explain and show him the benefits of the new tool – Forcing someone to do something is never a good thing. But sometimes there is no wining...
Tweet Last week me and other 20 guys from Sela Group were in the Build Conference where we first saw the new Windows 8 operation system and many cool things coming from Microsoft in the new release. I have much to say about new things regarding ALM, Metro but as always I prefer to start with building something with the new technology instead of talking about it…. So now I’ll talk about my first Metro Application for Windows 8 called – Metro Puzzle based on Puzzle 15 also called the N-Puzzle . Step...
Tweet מהרגע שחזרתי מכנס Build לקוחות שואלים אותי מה מחכה להם בגרסא החדשה של Visual Studio 11 ו – TFS 11? קצת היסטוריה – בעבר חברות רכשו מספר רב של כלים עבור כל תפקיד ייעודי בחברה, לאנשי פיתוח – Visual Studio, לאנשי בדיקות Quality Center ועוד כלים לאוטומציה, מנהלים עבדו עם Excel או MS Project ועוד ועוד כלים, הבעיה שלא היתה אינטגרציה ושיתופיות מלאה בין הכלים, מה שגרם לקשיים לא קטנים בתקשורת ובמעקב אחרי התהליך. ב – 2005 מיקרוסופט הוציאה לאוויר העולם את Team System כמוצר נפרד מ – Visual Studio שהיה חידוש...
