.NET WinForms for the Swing/SWT developer
No politics, just code. One of .NET's claimed “clear wins” is the support it has for building rich GUI clients on the Windows platform. In this talk, we'll learn WinForms, the .NET GUI toolkit, from the simple stuff (windows, dialogs, controls) to the hard stuff (multithreading support) to the cool stuff (translucence and property grids) and more.
Although we can't cover every aspect of the WinForms library, in 90 minutes we'll cover as much of it as is reasonable and/or possible, including some discussion of what it would take to make a WinForms client app talk to a Java/J2EE-based server.
