Overview of WPF Windows Presentation Foundation UI Framework Introduced in.NET 3.0 Rich UI Development Using Extensible Application Markup Language (XAML) Clear Separation of Design and Business Logic WPF/e Used in Silverlight

What is XAML? The XML language used to create WPF Applications Declarative rather than procedural XAML gets compiled into an object definition

Anatomy of a XAML File <Window xmlns=" resentation" x:Class="AirportKiosk.Window1" x:Name="Window" Title="Window1" Width="640" Height="480"> Orange Main Window Layout Grid Individual Controls (Button)

Code Behind Orange Event declared in XAML Logic implemented in a code-behind file (C#, VB.NET, or any other.NET language)

Code Behind (continued) public partial class Window1 { public Window1() { // Load our component from XAML InitializeComponent(); } public void Button1_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e) { MessageBox.Show("Hello!"); }

Data Binding XAML UI can be bound to CLR objects or XML Properties can also be bound to ADO.NET and objects associated with Web Services and Web Properties Sort, filter and group views can be generated on top of the data Binding Target Binding Source Dependency Object Object Dependency Property Property One Way Two Way One Way To Source
