  As I mentioned in a previous blog post, where I describe how to install the Zune software on Windows Server 2008, the Windows Phone 7 tools do not install on Windows Server 2008 as easily as on other “workstation” versions of Windows (Windows Vista, Windows 7). Once again, this is perfectly understandable since a server version of Windows is not aimed for application development purposes. However, since I installed Windows Server 2008 on my machine for training purposes, and since I don’t have enough computers at home to have one dedicated for this server version of Windows, I searched for a way to force the installation of these WP7 tools

“Hello, World!”  That’s how you write “Hello, World” in PowerShell.  Give it a try:  PSH> “Hello, World” “Hello, World!” PowerShell has some very unorthodox behaviours, such as “To execute a string, print it.”  (There’s more to it than simply “print it,” but that’s for later.)  Actually, if it’s told to execute any chunk of data (a highly technical term, one we’ll revist later), it will print it.  If it’s something that isn’t a string, but PowerShell has some rule on how to change it to a string, then it does so.  Otherwise, it prints the data’s type, as if you were creating the data in a C# program. Actually, “To execute a string, print it” is a simplification.  As we saw, PowerShell will happily print any chunk of data, be it a string, a number, an array or some esoteric type.  So is it “To execute a chunk of data, print it?”  Even that’s a simplification.  See, PowerShell is Object Oriented.  That means the string “Hello, World!” isn’t just raw data – it is an ‘object’ – a computational abstraction that encapsulates data, properties of that data, and functionality automatically created when the object is created.  And how did we create the object

Olá pessoal, dando continuidade às postagens sobre WCF, agora vou comentar sobre como consumir serviços utilizando WCF. O primeiro passo é adicionar um novo projeto na solução, aqui vou adicionar um projeto do tipo WPF Application e a solução deve ficar assim: Em seguida é necessário criar uma interface para o cliente do serviço, para isto basta utilizar o XAML abaixo. 1: < Window x:Class =”ClienteWCF.Window1″ 2: xmlns =”http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation” 3: xmlns:x =”http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml” 4: Title =”ClienteWCF” Height =”300″ Width =”300″ > 5: < Grid > 6: < Grid.ColumnDefinitions > 7: < ColumnDefinition /> 8: < ColumnDefinition /> 9: </ Grid.ColumnDefinitions > 10: < Grid.RowDefinitions > 11: < RowDefinition Height =”40*” /> 12: < RowDefinition Height =”40*” /> 13: < RowDefinition Height =”40*” /> 14: < RowDefinition Height =”200*” /> 15: </ Grid.RowDefinitions > 16: < TextBlock Text =”Valor1:” Grid
