Developers, Developers, Developers

Posted by Andy Sjostrom in "DEVELOPER" @ 01:07 AM

With this title, phrased after a certain well-known event, I hope to attract as many developers as possible. Check out these news!

OpenNETCF has released the first version of their open source Smart Device Framework v1.0. The framework enriches and extends the .NET Compact Framework by providing a rich set of classes and controls not available in the .NET Compact Framework. This framework is a must have if you develop .NET Compact Framework applications. Project Contributors are mainly Neil Cowburn (eMVP), Chris Tacke (eMVP), Peter Foot (eMVP), Alex Yakhnin (eMVP), Alex Feinman (eMVP), Tim Wilson (eMVP), Maarten Struys (eMVP), Paul Tobey (eMVP), Elia Karagiannis and Mark Arteaga. Pretty much the dream team of developers.

On the subject of "must haves". Resco has released new versions of resco AdvancedList for .NET CF and resco DetailView for .NET CF.

Major features of resco AdvancedList for .NET CF:
• Proper substitution for DataGrid and ListView
• Preview/Detail usage — less space, more information.
• Master-Detail usage — different data in the same list.
• Various cell types — displaying text, images, hyperlinks in one data row.
• Database support — easy work with SQLCE databases.
• XML templates — save the layout of the control and load it in the runtime.
• Powerful Designer — easy design, new usage opportunities.
• Comprehensive Help — fully integrated to Visual Studio .NET environment.
• Various Samples — written in VB & C#, describing a usage in different situations.

Major features of resco DetailView for .NET CF.
• An alternative way of creating Detail Forms
• Designer support — easy to set up in design-time.
• Run-time support — create/modify your detail forms in run-time.
• Data binding support — for simple work with data.
• Various control types — ComboBox, DateTime Picker, CheckBox, Numeric, Link/Button.
• Paging support — distribute detailed information to more pages to avoid scrolling.
• XML templates — save the layout of the control and load it in the runtime.
• Powerful Designer — easy design, new usage opportunities.
• Comprehensive Help — fully integrated to Visual Studio .NET environment.

Finally, Hood Canal Systems has released Signature Capture Control version 3.0 for the .NET Compact Framework. The control adds digital signature capture capabilities to .NET Compact Framework applications. The new version really boosts performance over previous versions.

This week is off to a great start!
