.NET Static Code Analysis
Location: Franz Hall, Room 018
Static code analysis is a way to test your code without actually running it. It can detect errors that often times don't show up until the application is running at your customer's site. It also shows where your code doesn't follow best practices. In this session, you will learn how to manually perform static code analysis with FxCop and StyleCop and how to add these tools into a Continuous Integration process so the code analysis is performed automatically.
Composite applications with MEF and Prism, a winning combination
Location: Franz Hall, Room 018
For a while now we've been talking about Composite Applications as a great approach for building applications that can evolve over time. To date, the .NET platform itself has provided very little support for such patterns. The void has been filled through the patterns & pracitces team with Composite UI guidance such as Prism. With the introduction of the Managed Extensibility Framework in .NET 4 and Silverlight 4 all that has changed. Wiht MEF, composability is now a first class member of the platform! MEF doesn't cancel out Prism they are a winning combination. Prism v4 leverages MEF under the covers to take composite applications to the next level. Come to this talk and we'll talk about MEF, Prism and the awesome chemistry they have when you combine them.
