WPF Training

Wednesday, March 21, 2007 9:04:41 PM (Central Standard Time, UTC-06:00)

I missed the MVP Summit last week to attend WPF training.  I have to admit I was initially pretty disappointed that I was going to spend last week in WPF training, and miss out seeing some old friends at the MVP Summit.  But since I just started with a new client and needed to get up to speed on WPF I decided to forgo the MVP Summit.

It turned out the training was done by Robbie Ingebretsen, who was a Program Manager on the WPF team, responsiable for many of the controls that were built for WPF.  It ended up being a great week of training and I learned alot.  If your interested in WPF training, take a look at Identity Mine where Robbie works.

Where did the Application.ThreadException go in WPF?

Monday, March 12, 2007 6:30:06 AM (Central Standard Time, UTC-06:00)

Spending alot of time in WPF lately... today I ran into something interesting.  There is no Application.ThreadException in the WPF Application object.

It looks like the only other option to catch exceptions at the edge of the application is to use AppDomain.UnhandledException.
