Fundamentals of the Managed Extensibility Framework (MEF): Extensible Applications in .NET (Video Training)
with Jeremy Likness
Overview
Learn how to leverage the Managed Extensibility Framework,
part of the .NET 4.0 framework, to solve common problems
encountered when developing enterprise applications. These include
discovery for separation of concerns, metadata for filtering and
sorting implementations, and extensibility for highly modular
applications. You will not only learn how these concepts can be
coded and applied, but also how they have been successfully used in
existing applications to provide reliable, scalable solutions.
Viewers will also learn how to use MEF’s Silverlight-specific
extensions to build modular Silverlight applications “out of the
box.”
