Excellent Silverlight for Windows Phone Performance Posts
July 5, 2011
Did you know that the folks working on Silverlight for Windows Phone performance have setup a great blog? Spearheaded by one of our program managers, Rohan, the blog is a place where we’ve been putting together excellent guidance on the upcoming Mango release. Now that Beta 2 of the Mango developer tools are out, this information will continue to be updated and useful.
Here are just a few of the posts related to Mango:
- ScrollViewer and ListBox improvements in Mango, and how it will affect your applications
- About the new off-thread image decoding options
- WebClient changes (no longer fires back on the UI thread, but instead the thread that created it)
- Implementing infinite scrolling (and detecting compression states, etc.) in Mango
Hope this helps. Let us know what we can do to improve. The blog is online at http://blogs.msdn.com/b/slmperf/ so do subscribe!
