A Guide to the Microsoft Windows Presentation Foundation (Pro - Developer):
Book by Charles Petzold. Microsoft Press 880 pages Paperback Published 2006-09-13. Description: In this book, Windows programming legend Charles Petzold covers in parallel the two interfaces that make up the Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF). From the outset, the reader can shift focus seamlessly between Extensible Application Markup Language (XAML) and C# to see them as flip sides of the same processes. Beginning in the first chapter, Petzold presents the general syntax of the XAML and corresponding programming code with numerous illuminating examples on how the two correspond and interrelate. The book builds on this base, providing the classic Petzold Windows user interface (UI) treatment, to show Windows developers how to create next-generation interfaces for their applications.
Book by Chris Sells and Ian Griffiths. O'Reilly Media 430 pages Paperback Published 2005-10-01. Description: Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF) (formerly known by its code name "Avalon") is a brand-new presentation framework for Windows XP and Windows Vista, the next version of the Windows client operating system. For developers, WPF is a cornucopia of new technologies, including a new graphics engine that supports 3-D graphics, animation, and more; an XML-based markup language (XAML) for declaring the structure of your Windows UI; and a radical new model for controls. Programming Windows Presentation Foundation, authored by Microsoft Software Legend Chris Sells and WPF guru Ian Griffiths, is the book you need to get up to speed on WPF. By page two, you'll have written your first WPF application, and by the end of Chapter 1, "Hello WPF," you'll have completed a rapid tour of the framework and its major elements. These include the XAML markup language and the mapping of XAML markup to [WinFX]Create? code; the WPF content model; layout; controls, styles, and templates; graphics and animation; and, finally, deployment. Programming Windows Presentation Foundation features: - Scores of C# and XAML examples that show you what it takes to get a WPF application up and running, from a simple "Hello, Avalon" program to a tic-tac-toe game
- Insightful discussions of the powerful new programming styles that WPF brings to Windows development, especially its new model for controls
- A color insert to better illustrate WPF support for 3-D, color, and other graphics effects
- A tutorial on XAML, the new HTML-like markup language for declaring Windows UI
- An explanation and comparison of the features that support interoperability with Windows Forms and other Windows legacy applications
The next generation of Windows applications is going to blaze a trail into the unknown. WPF represents the best of the control-based Windows world and the content-based web world; it's an engine just itching to be taken for a spin. Inside, you'll find the keys to the ignition. Updated samples and change notes for the move from the February CTP to Beta 2 are now available from the example site: http://www.sellsbrothers.com/writing/avbook/
- Review:: 'Excellent book, we even use it at Microsoft ... I am working on a commercial XML application at Microsoft that is heavily leveraging WPF and pretty much all of the devs on my project that are developing in WPF have this book sitting open on their desks right now. It is a really great, easy to read and understandable book. You still need the detailed documentation on MSDN when you want to see all of the API details but if you want a logical, understandable walk throught WPF this is the book. I am amazed at WPF's power, flexibility, and architectural consistency. In my opinion WPF will impact all of our thinking about fat versus thin client and what is possible on the desktop. We will see this in the next wave of applications built with WPF that will soon show up, and represent the state of the art in client based applicaions. This book is the seminal publication that many of us will remember as launching us into this new, groundbreaking technology. Dave Remy http://blogs.msdn.com/daveremy
- Review:: 'Very Out Of Date While Avalon aka Windows Presentation Framework is still in beta, I had hoped that the code examples and references in this book would not be far out of date. I am finding that they are dramatically out of date (writing this review 04/27/2006). This is not to criticize the quality of the book or of the content; it appears to be well written. However, it was written in September 2005, and there has been at least 3 new beta releases of the framework since then. About 1/2 of the examples I have tried will not even compile, or have bad runtime errors. The "big concepts" are mostly unchanged. However, I cannot recommend this book to anyone. Programmer to programmer, you will be better off reading examples from online sources like msdn.microsoft.com and downloading new WPF tools like "Expression". This book will find you confused with broken examples fast. I look forward to an updated version when Avalon solidifies.
- Review:: 'A thorough grounding The nascent [WinFX]Create? API, of which Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF) is a part, is one of the most exciting developments in Windows programming in years. Though the technology is still in beta (it is slated to ship with Windows Vista in late 2006 or early 2007), it can be used to build working applications now, in either the Vista beta or Windows XP with Service Pack 2, allowing the adventurous developer to get a jump start in the technology that will drive Windows development for the next decade. I know of no better introduction to WPF than this book. The authors are extremely well-versed in the topic and their writing is clear and concise, enabling you to get up-to-speed in the minimum amount of time. You can tell that they are as excited about the promises of this technology as the rest of us, and the enthusiasm they bring to the topic makes the reading more enjoyable. They also volunteer their time in many forums and newsgroups (as well as maintaining their own Web sites and blogs), answering questions and helping programmers ramp up quickly. They even provide an eMail address that readers can use to get help with technical questiosn. The task of writing a technical book is daunting enough under any circumstances. I can't even begin to imagine what it must be like to attempt the feat with a technology that is still in constant flux. With every new Community Technology Preview of [WinFX]Create?, Microsoft makes major changes to the syntax of WPF. Therefore, through no fault of the authors, it must be noted that many of the examples in the book are out-of-date. However, Chris maintains a list on his Web site (sellsbrothers.com) of changes necessitated by each successive release. And actually, being aware of the transformations the syntax has gone through over time can give you invaluable insight into how the technology works, deep down. As they note in the Preface, the book is not for neophyte programmers. Chris and Ian assume that their audience is familiar with Microsoft .NET programming and with Object Oriented Programming concepts. Further, all examples in the book are either in XAML (eXtensible Application Markup Language, the XML-based language for declaratively creating WPF user interfaces) or C#. However, VB.NET developers should not shy away from the book, as the examples are mostly clear enough that they can be deciphered pretty easily. In fact, translating some of the C# examples into VB.NET code can be one of the best ways to ensure that you understand the principles that a given example seeks to illustrate. All in all, I find it hard to imagine a better introduction to WPF than this book. If you're a Windows developer, you should be interested in WPF (and the other pillars of [WinFX]Create?), and if you're interested in WPF, you need this book.
- Review:: 'Get up to speed quickly Chris Sells and Ian Griffiths' PROGRAMMING WINDOWS PRESENTATION FOUNDATION is for programmers new to WPF as well as those with some experience. Get up to speed quickly writing WPF applications, then use the examples and disussions of the new programming features to understand how its complex features work. WPF will streamline both web and Windows applications programming. All are excellent guides promising lasting references.
- Review:: 'They don't come better... I honestly can't remember the last time I had so much goood old fashioned fun whilst working through a software engineering book. I'd recommend Sells and Ians book over the Wrox press title since it some how manages to appeal to both the left and right sides of your brain at the same time. A neat trick and something any book about programming UI and user experiences should aspire to. The only "problem" with this book is that it's oh so tempting to go off on little "what-if" programming tangents as Chris and Ian reveal just how darn elegant WPF actually is. Get this book.
