The WinFX hands-on labs in Dublin are going to be great.

  • Artigo

I've been working this week with our incredibly dedicated lab staff (especially one Antonio Palacios) to make next week's Dublin-based WinFX Hands-On Labs unmissable.

The Avalon (WPF) team, among others, have given us the go-ahead to present through the PDC05 content from Los Angeles. 

WPF and Virtual PC aren't the best of friends.  So we're working some magic and actually installing all the WinFX bits from PDC onto all of our lab's machines. 

This is going to be a great set of labs.  And we're going to run them Thursday and Friday now.  The Thursday signup is here.  The Friday signup is here.  Descriptions follow.  Mail me if you want to come on Friday, or have problems with the signup!

The next generation of Microsoft developer technologies, WinFX, will extend the .NET framework in a number of significant ways. Three components of WinFX – the Windows Communication, Presentation and Workflow Foundations – will change the way software interacts, looks, and flows. 

Windows Communication Foundation (former code name “Indigo”) is Microsoft’s unified programming model for building service-oriented applications. Windows Workflow Foundation, recently announced at PDC05, is the programming model, engine and tools for quickly building workflow enabled applications on Windows. Windows Presentation Foundation (formerly code name "Avalon") is the presentation subsystem class libraries in WinFX.

During this day of hands-on labs, you’ll have the opportunity to explore these technologies yourself. The labs are set up in a flexible, self-paced style. You’ll have the chance to meet with other developers interested in the WinFX technologies and work through a variety of high-quality content at your own pace.
