WPF Controls (Windows Presentation Foundation Controls & WPF Components)

What is WPF? WPF stands for Windows Presentation Foundation and is part of the Microsoft .NET Framework that helps you create Windows based forms inside your application on Windows based PCs and servers. (When Microsoft were developing WPF it was also known as project Avalon). The WPF technology can be viewed as the next step on from Windows Forms or WinForms by Microsoft and provides support for vector graphics, as such WPF apps can produce a better look and feel, particularly for high-definition imaging and graphics applications, than traditional Windows Forms. WPF is not aimed at Web site & Intranet developers as Microsoft has another .NET Technology called Silverlight. WPF is aimed at desktop app developers.

What is a WPF Control? A WPF control is a reusable software component that you can add you your WPF form to enable the user to control the application, enter data and display data on their screen at run-time. A WPF control is a piece of code that has been pre-built by another WPF developer or third party WPF controls creator that can be easily added to your WPF based app to extend the functionality fast. For example, you will find complex Gantt scheduling WPF controls on our Web site for you to add resource scheduling, planning and timetabling functionality to your WPF program, without you needing to develop and support all those basic WPF scheduling controls.

What is a WPF Component? WPF components are different from WPF controls in that they can be non-visual and can to be running hidden in the background of your app. WPF controls are a subset of WPF components, so all WPF controls are also WPF components, but not all WPF components are visible to the user. For example, you can get a WPF data compression component that runs in the background compressing and decompressing the size of data files using common data compression techniques such as ZIP, but this WPF component and its activity is not visible to the user.

In this filtered view of our complete .NET component product catalog, you will find a WPF controls gallery and also some WPF components that you can download, compare, review, try and buy, to add to your WPF app. The Windows Presentation Foundation area of the market is rapidly expanding, so if you wish to find all the latest WPF News about third party WPF products, then subscribe to our WPF News RSS feed to keep up to date.

Visual Studio 2008 (Controls & Components, Tools & Add-ins)

Microsoft Visual Studio 2008 (MS Visual Studio 2008) allows Visual Studio 2008 programmers to create Windows applications for their end users fast. Visual Studio 2008 developers can extend the standard functionality available inside the Visual Studio 2008 IDE with a variety of Visual Studio 2008 add-ins and Visual Studio 2008 tools. The extensibility of Visual Studio 2008 software is one of the main reasons it has proved to be so popular with developers, as Visual Studio 2008 software engineers can find Visual Studio 2008 downloads from other companies or other developers to act as a Visual Studio 2008 extension to their Visual Studio 2008 IDE.

The versatility of Visual Studio 2008 also extends to various forms of Visual Studio 2008 software components. Visual Studio 2008 controls can be used to create feature rich Visual Studio 2008 user interfaces on forms and Web pages for Visual Studio 2008 apps. These Visual Studio 2008 UI controls are augmented by non-visual Visual Studio 2008 components or Visual Studio 2008 libraries that can help a developer add many hidden features in Visual Studio 2008 applications running in the background. These non-visual components are commonly available as a Visual C++ library, Visual C++ Class library, Visual Basic library, Visual Basic Class library or as a Visual Basic custom control or ActiveX/OCX component.

An example of a visual Visual Studio 2008 control is Janus GridEx for .NET, a .NET UI control that allows you to create an MS Outlook style or look and feel to your latest Visual Basic project. A non-visual .NET component example is a Visual Studio 2008 compatible product that allows you to create and output files in different formats, such as: PDF, XPS, PostScript, RTF, HTML, XML to help solve file conversion and document storage needs.

Other examples of a visual Visual Studio 2008 control is BCGControlBar Professional, a Visual C++ Class Library that allows you to create an MS Office Ribbon style or look and feel to your latest Visual C++ project. A non-visual Visual C++ Class Library component example is a Visual C++ compatible product call IP*Works! C++ Edition that allows you to send emails via SMTP and POP or to transfer files reliably using HTTP or FTP Internet protocols from within your Visual C++ program.

The Visual Studio 2008 software products listed in this Visual Studio 2008 product gallery will allow you to save a lot of time and effort in creating your new Visual Studio 2008 app. Whether you are looking for a Visual Studio 2008 plug-in or Visual Studio 2008 utility, or you are looking for a Visual Studio 2008 control or a Visual Studio 2008 component, you will be able to find a wide variety of Visual Studio 2008 tools to help you finish your project faster.

We also have other Visual Studio product galleries for: Visual Studio 2010, Visual Studio 2005, Visual Studio .NET and Visual Studio compatible products.
