JOCHE OJEDA

Hi Everyone,

A bit of a small issue this week folks. We decided to add a few more sections: Links to Bookmarks, Tips & Tricks and Add to your Calendar. Let us know if you want us to add more sections or have links we are missing.

Anyway, have a great week everyone. ❤

Getting Started

A Gentle Introduction to XAF – My personal recipe

Well, this is my own formula for XAF development.

Are you ready? Let’s start!

XAF Windows

How to pre cache an XAF Winforms Application

This is a follow up post on the APPX package build. Basically it should apply to all XAF-Winforms application, just some path adjustments should be needed.

As in the last post, the idea behind the pre caching is that modules don't change after deployment, so we can pre generate all files needed that are generated at first launch.

WinForms - TransitionManager - DirectX-Based Transitions (v19.1)

There is a couple scenarios where I would like to integrate this in a XAF Windows Application

XAF Mobile

At the moment, we do not provide any solutions or recommendations for offline usage and synchronization. Our current thoughts on this scenario are given in the Proposed solution for offline application ticket.

Reports

Reporting - JsonDataSource Updates

As expressed in your feedback, token-based authentication functionality is crucial for JsonDataSource usage. This post describes how to implement this feature in v18.2 and then introduces our built-in implementation to be released with v19.1.

Testing

Visual Studio 2019 Support

We are proud to announce that all DevExpress .NET products fully support Visual Studio 2019.

Always define a constructor with a Session parameter in your persistent objects.
Use the SetPropertyValue method in persistent property setters.
Explicitly set the XpoDefault.DataLayer property in the entry point of your application.

How to measure and improve the application's performance

The best way to determine the underlying cause of a performance problem is to profile your application using a specialized performance profiler tool or enable logging. For more convenience, see the tools below grouped by the most popular profiling tasks when developing an XAF application.
