My latest publishing project, which I haven't talked about much on the blog, is a LiveLesson training DVD on WF. This product has now released and you can find all the details here:

http://www.awprofessional.com/title/0321503139

It contains about 5 hours of video instruction on the breadth of WF, including sequential workflows, state machine workflows, showing how to use each of the base activity library activities, how to communicate with workflows, how to handle exceptions, custom activities, and much more. Because of the length of the instruction, it is more of a shallow dive into each of the topics to get you started, rather than being very deep in any one area. The content is mostly Camtasia screen capture while demonstrating the techniques being discussed.

There is also a sample lesson available through YouTube:

If you are getting started using WF, this would be a good way to get bootstrapped.

Get your hands on 70 pages of overview and How-To guidance on doing ClickOnce deployments, as well as a manifest manager utility that makes changing manifests easier and shows how to program against the manifest API, as well as a deployment repository provider example and more...

Smart Client Deployment with ClickOnce book site is up and available with the full book sample code in C# and VB

I wrote a whitepaper on administering ClickOnce deployments earlier this year for the product team. It took a bit for it to get through the MSDN publishing process, but it is finally available.

 

You can check it out here:

This whitepaper covers handling tracking and authentication of users on the deployment server, as well as giving an explanation of what is going on under the covers during the publishing and deployment process.

Enjoy!

The sweet bliss of declaring manuscript complete washes over me...
