I’ve been putting together a session around networking in Silverlight and I wanted to get a little more re-use out of the work that I’d put into it so I thought I could quickly turn some of it into screencasts that go onto Channel 9.
In Silverlight, applications are browser-initiated and ( usually ) have limited access to the local machine so being able to work on the network is key;
whether that be ( as the picture suggests ) going to the site that the application came from ( the “site of origin” ) or to some other website or maybe even just on the intranet to talk to some local server.
I’ve made a few screencasts. I’ve not yet decided how/when to publish them because I’ve found in the past that if I publish a lot in one go then people tend to watch the first few and then drop off so I’m trying a new tactic here of publishing them one at a time. You can find them all by clicking the image below;
and I’ll add explicit links to the series below;
- Silverlight 4 Beta Networking. WebClient and XML.
- Silverlight 4 Beta Networking. WebClient and RSS,ATOM, JSON.
- Silverlight 4 Beta Networking. WebClient, HTTP POST.
- Silverlight 4 Beta Networking. Cross-Domain HTTP
- Silverlight 4 Beta Networking. HTTP Methods other than GET/POST and the 2 HTTP stacks.
