[…] The recent rising of the MVVM design pattern has created a fairly strong buzz around the community, developers and .NET shops who build RIA applications specifically for the Silverlight platform. If you’re just about getting into MVVM and stucked with conceptual difficulties and technical challenges – you’re not alone. Hundreds to thousands developers can be seen struggling with MVVM questions in one of the most popular question and answer sites. This is not very surprising as the MVVM itself currently lacks standardization from Microsoft both in implementation and toolsets.

Hello Suresh,

You can find the source code for the Contacts MVVM example in your local installation of ClientUI. If you have not downloaded ClientUI, please do so by visiting http://www.clientui.com/download.

We’ll be releasing new Contacts sample with full database connectivity using MVVM pattern. I’ll keep you posted when it’s released.

Thanks,
Jimmy

Hello,

The example was too good but it will be good if you can share the code and SQL DB scripts for this example.

The link which is above belongs to Messageboard, can you share the code and DB scripts for the current example.

Advance Thanks,
Suresh

[…] In this blog post, I will share the key techniques that we used to build a richer Silverlight message board using the ClientUI library. Instead of writing a lengthy walkthrough from the ground zero, this blog post will be more focused on the key challenges and common obstacles found while building rich user interface using MVVM pattern in the combination with WCF RIA Services, Entity Framework and Domain Service. So, to effectively follow this post, you’re required to have basic understanding in the MVVM pattern and WCF RIA Services at the minimum. To learn more about MVVM pattern, read my previous post MVVM Framework in Silverlight. […]

Hello Robert,

Don’t worry, I welcome any feedback and discussion regarding RIA technology.

I appreciate your input regarding Flex, but doesn’t find any facts that Flex has actually supported the MVVM pattern since 4 years ago. Probably you’re referring to MVC pattern?

The MVVM pattern is introduced since the advent of WPF, and is only possible with modern visual tree model such as the one adopted in WPF and Silverlight. AFAIK, Flex didn’t adopt such visual tree model, and the result came empty when I’m looking at Commanding or 2-ways data binding engine in Flex.

This blog post suggested why MVVM does not fit Flex quite well: http://blog.flexforcefive.com/?p=83

Let me know what’s your thought about MVVM, Commanding, Databinding and the related Visual technology particularly in Flex, and with an apple-to-apple comparison to Silverlight.

Regards,
Jimmy.
