The other parts of this series include State Machine and Rules-Driven Workflows Advanced Workflow Features Extended Workflow Example All of the “Building Applications with Windows Workflow Foundation” Short Cuts were created with the professional developer in mind. The author’s unique approach is a combination of practical application with just enough understanding of the underpinnings for developers. It is not a book on "workflow plumbing” but a successful approach he has used for many years in consulting and training. Features of this Short Cut series include Demonstrations on how to build practical workflow applications by solving problems that workflow developers will have to solve. Plenty of code that helps demonstrate how to solve the practical problems of building an application. The first three Short Cuts emphasize and illustrate how to build the elements of an application. The fourth Short Cut will pick a different application and illustrate how to build a workflow application with more emphasis on the design strategy and tactics using the problem solutions developed in the first three articles. Providing this information as a Short Cut will enable information to be delivered to developers quickly, more efficiently, and cheaply than could be done in a book, but with the quality of a book rather than the superficial level of most current articles.

Essential Windows Workflow Foundation by Dharma Shukla,Bob Schmidt Pdf

In Essential Windows Workflow Foundation, two WF lead architects–Dharma Shukla and Bob Schmidt–offer an under-the-hood look at the technology, explaining the why and not just the how of WF’s key concepts and architecture. Serious WF developers seeking details about how to effectively utilize and extend the framework by writing activities will find cogent explanations and answers here. With simple and illustrative examples, the authors demonstrate exactly how to leverage WF’s extensible programming model to craft domain-specific programs. Drawing on their unique vantage point in designing and developing WF, Shukla and Schmidt deliver authoritative coverage of The core concepts and ideas that form the heart of WF’s programming model The execution model for activities, with details of the activity automaton, bookmarking, scheduling, and the threading model of the WF runtime Advanced execution concepts, including activity execution contexts, transactions, persistence points, passivation, fault handling, cancellation, compensation, and synchronization Hosting the WF runtime in applications The activity component model, with details of validation, compilation, serialization, and visualization Databinding, XAML, dependency properties, and WF program metadata Declarative conditions and rules, activity designers, and designer hosting Custom control flow patterns ranging from simple sequencing and iteration to more complex graphs and state machines Dynamic editing of running WF program instances Essential Windows Workflow Foundation is the definitive resource for developers seeking an in-depth understanding of this novel technology.
