Just found the Silvermoon project on Codeplex after Frank pointed me there in Facebook. AWESOME!!!  I always like fancy Controls that I don’t have to handcraft like in the GDI+ Article.

In der deutschsprachigen MSDN Webcast Serie: Windows Mobile: Applications at your fingertips geht es um die Entwicklung von Windows Mobile 6.5 Anwendungen. Es ist selten das mir ein deutsprachiger Webcast gefällt! Peter Nowak, Patrick Getzmann und Simon Hackfort gelingt schaffen es aber sehr gut die Inhalte rüberzubringen.

Highlights:

  • Hooper
  • Windows Mobile Marketplace
  • Gesture API
  • Windows Mobile 6 Consumer Solution Accelerator

Enterprise Architect (EA) is a graphical modeling tool originally dedicated for modeling UML. To date EA is a general purpose modeling tool which supports many different modeling languages. Furthermore, with its UML Profile based technique you are able to define your own UML2 extensions in EA. Based on OMGs language MOF you are also able to model metamodels for defining “real” domain specific language (DSLs). However, EA lacks of automatic provided model validation for the defined DSLs.
In contrast to this, Eclipse consists of the eclipse modeling framework (EMF). EMF automatically generates an API for a provided ECORE Model, which is the Eclipse implementation of MOF. Furthermore, it already has a model validation for provided ECORE models. The drawback of EMF is the lack of a handy graphical modeling engine for the declaration of ECORE models.
The idea behind the integration of EA and EMF is to use the smooth modeling facilities of EA and marriage them with the formal modeling power of EMF.
The EA extension will behave as following: Every action in EA (creating a new element, e.g. a class) will cause the same action in EMF. Hence, EA can be used as graphical frontend to create EMF based models.
The first steps will be the synchronization of EA MOF models with EMF Ecore models. Further steps will be the bidirectional synchronization between Enterprise Architect and EMF and the creation of EMF based UML2 models.

Auf Peter Foots Blog habe ich eine Lösung gefunden wie das Tabcontrol auch den coolen neuen Look von Windows Mobile 6.5 bekommt! Details: Windows Mobile 6.5 Tab Control

Nichtsdestotrotz bin ich der Meinung das TabControl’s und GridControl’s mobile Anwendungen unbenutzbar machen – d.h man sollte Sie nur in besonderen Fällen benutzen.

Deep Blue hat Konkurrenz bekommen,… Deep Green welchen ich auf MakeZine entdeckt habe. Dieser hat nur nichts mit Schach am Hut, sondern spielt Pool.

Ob er bei den nächsten Trick Shot Meisterschaften dabei ist?? ;)

Was mich wirklich fasziniert hat war das “Augmented Reality Pool” (im Video ab ca. 2:10). Schade das wir keine Pooltisch im Büro haben,…  vielleicht kann ich da ja sowas für unsere Dartscheibe machen ;)

Deep Blue got competition,… Deep Green which I found on  MakeZine . But this one doesn’t bother about Chess, it plays pool.

Maybe we will see it at the next trick shot championships?? ;)

Despite that what really got my attention was the “Augmented Reality Pool” (in the video at about 2:10). Bummer, we don’t have a pool table in the office,… maybe I’ll can code something like that for our dart board. ;)

If you choose to run Teamcity with a .sln you have an almost automatic integration into Teamcity that can be configured from the web interface.

For most stuff I end up needing a MsBuild Script to get all the Tasks done required for our Builds. If you choose MsBuild as a buildrunner in Teamcity you lose the nice GUI for configurating MsTest . So you need to run the tests by yourself with a simple target in an MsBuild script:

<Target Name=”MsTest”>

    <Exec IgnoreExitCode=”true” Command=”&quot;$(VS2008_Path)\mstest.exe&quot; /testcontainer:BridgeTest.dll  /resultsfile:BridgeTest.trx”  />

    <Message Text=”##teamcity[importData type='mstest' path='BridgeTest.trx']“/>

</Target>

The Trick  is the Second Task which serves as a Service Message and tells Teamcity to Import the results from MsTest.

Other versions of running MsTest from MsBuild can be found in my previous post.

Mostly the same applies for Nunit Tests – yet you don’t need the Service Message because Teamcity can import Nunit reports from the gui.

Auf dem WindowsBlog.at | Outlook und Explorer PDF Preview auf 64 Bit mich betrifft das nicht – da ich sowieso Foxit verwende. Ich finde das trotzdem spannend und es gibt ja auch Microsoft Software die nicht unter 64bit geht ;) (Platform Builder, Cellular Emulator, ..)
