Internationalising ASP.NET AJAX
The internationalisation story for ASP.NET 2.0 is an excellent one: localisability at the touch of a menu option and the full weight of the .NET Framework 2.0 globalisation classes at your disposal for server-side code. ASP.NET AJAX however, has a strong client-side model and furthermore uses JavaScript which is not in the .NET Framework and so cannot use its globalisation classes. This session looks at the localisability and localisation solution for ASP.NET AJAX and compares the ASP.NET AJAX features to their equivalents in the .NET Framework. By the end of the session you should know how to internationalise your ASP.NET AJAX applications.
Using ClickOnce and XBAPs to Deploy Windows Forms and WPF Applications
This session represents an opportunity to understand how to get the ease of web deployment together with the richness of Windows Forms or Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF). The same technology is used in XAML Browser Applications (XBAPs) which are WPF applications that are hosted in a browser. Guy introduces ClickOnce technology and demonstrates its use in many scenarios including zero touch deployment, one touch deployment, reversion to previous versions and uninstallation. We also cover deploying WPF applications through the browser (known as XBAPs) and illustrate the similarities and differences between XBAPs, MSI-deployed WPF applications and Windows Forms applications deployed using ClickOnce
