Exploring WPF's Future: Innovations, Features, and Multitouch Capabilities

In "WPF Today and Tomorrow," Laurent Bugnion, a Senior User Experience Developer, discusses the transformative aspects of WPF technologies. He highlights advancements in Windows 7, including multitouch support, improved XAML/C# integration, and GPU-accelerated pixel shaders. Bugnion shares insights on creating LOB applications and the importance of MVVM in modern app development, underlining how these innovations will enhance user experiences. Discover more about the future of WPF and its applications on IdentityMine and Laurent's blog.

  8. WPF FuturesMultitouch / Windows 7 • Multitouch is coming (Natural User Interface) • Surface experience is leveraged for Win7 • WPF is ready for Windows 7 • Jump List integration • Thumbnail customization

  9. WPF FuturesXAML 4 / C# 4 • Improvement of the languages will improve WPF too! • http://channel9.msdn.com/pdc2008/TL36/(XAML) • Unifying the different XAML versions • Names reference, Types, Generics, Delegates, Arguments, Factory Methods… • http://channel9.msdn.com/pdc2008/TL16/(C#) • More dynamic • Better interoperability

  10. WPF FuturesPixel shaders • Replacement for BitmapEffects • Too inefficient (no GPU acceleration) • Will no-op in WPF 4 • Exception: Blur and DropShadow • Highly efficient, parallel computing • Optimized for GPU

  11. Pixel Shaders (HLSL) • float4 myColor = { 0.5f, 0.2f, 0.4f, 0.2f }; • float4 colorFilter = {0.0f, 0.0f, 1.0f, 1.0f}; • float4 result = myColor * colorFilter; • <This is FOUR TIMES as fast as doing these operations separately, since they’re done in parallel> • result == {0.0f, 0.0f, 0.4f, 0.2f} • {result.x, result.y, result.z, result.w} • …equivalent to • {result.r, result,g, result.b, result.a} <Grid> <Grid.Effect> <MyEffect /> </Grid.Effect> </Grid> Grid g = new Grid(); MyEffect me = new MyEffect(); g.Effect = me;
