A few years ago, when we are new to web development, once because of the inconvenience of operating on this page, the rise of a crazy idea, since it is not convenient web page from a browser and web standards, then why do not we develop its own browser in addition to supporting web standards, but also support the implementation of the program of our own to write it?
When fantasy come true, to talk about Silverlight 2.0
when a few years ago, we are new to web development, once because of the inconvenience of operating on this page, the rise of a crazy idea, since it is not convenient web page from a browser and web standards, then why do not develop their own browser, in addition to supporting web standards, but also support the implementation of the program of our own to write it?
Of course, this was more than just a few engineers spare time fantasy crazy scheme in the state that everyone of my body more than a dozen cases, impossible to implement such a fantasy.
Recently, I started writing Silverlight 2.0 related books, I write books have a very special habit, that is a favorite with small and medium systems as a target, looking at the development of the system efficiency, the direction of rational use of the technology , Windows Form actual design framework, ASP.NET AJAX / Silverlight holy books, are finalized way in this manner, as the scriptures .NET framework 3.5 is a special case, because my last order with ASP.NET AJAX / Silverlight holy books do segments , and will gather focus on LINQ to SQL / LINQ to Entiteis, deliberately simplified the last page Invoicing example.
Silverlight 2.0 in this study work, I chose to practice a larger system, which will include Invoicing, document processes, personnel management. For me, this is a Silverlight 2.0 to leverage the full firepower of example systems, but also a test of Silverlight 2.0 can be strong and to what extent the system covered the data flow, the operator interface, architecture layer design, multi-window management, authentication mechanisms , caching mechanism, report printing, Silverlight 2.0 have to be in complete practice it.
The more objective approach initial planning, the more I think, Silveright 2.0 is actually a smaller version of the Windows Form architecture (OK, it can be said that a smaller version of WPF, this is actually more similar), although the lack of a lot of convenience built-in features, but also a lot more resilient, give you one example, Silverlight 2.0 and no so-called Modal Dialog interface, but it can reach through stacked, seemingly spring of the DataGrid is hidden a great power, exactly the same length of Button but contains a high degree of flexibility. In Silverlight 2.0, the interface controls manufacturing oval, translucent controls, animations are not difficult, and she was executed on top of the browser. For me, it's like a fantasy realized many years ago and jumping for joy.
A long time ago, chatting with colleagues once mentioned, the browser and the Office have the same fate, is the last will become a carrier, approaches the status of the OS, coming in Silverlight 2.0 today, this prediction seems from the realization of Japan is not far from the truth.
Before the end of this year, you will see the birth of many books of Silverlight 2.0, Silverlight is no longer a time only Bofang animation technology, is no longer a query only provide an interface data, she will be a strong the platform, you can do to a powerful ERP system on top!
So line up your research time course in preparation for another software innovation trend came of it.
