On June 16, October 24, we successfully held "Windows 7" in Chengdu Times Square.Community"Release activity", which was hosted by the Chengdu software technology salon with the support of Microsoft.. Net club activity. Then, our salon held a Windows 7 party in the nearby mingtu coffee. It can be said that the community release activity in the afternoon is a big party for Windows developers in Chengdu, And the evening party is a release activity within the salon.

Windows 7 community publishing activity venue

Although the price is slightly higher (or the lowest internal discount price) among the high-end office buildings in the core commercial district of Chengdu, I think the whole site is of high grade and environment, services are still in place, in line with important activities such as Windows 7 release. The only drawback is that banners cannot be hung at the door of the office building, so they have to be hung inside the venue.

Attendees

According to my past experience, many registrants did not come, so this time I planned to have 50 people (54 people in the venue), and I invited 60 people, 50 people actually attended the meeting. Most of the participants were developers and a small number of college students. More importantly, most participants are already using Windows 7.

Lecture Process

During the sign-in period, before the official start, I cyclically played some promotion and introduction videos for Windows 7. However, I believe all of my friends who came to the activity are familiar with these new features. At the very beginning, I asked Liu chuanjun, chairman of the salon, to give a welcome speech. Then I started my first session-Windows 7 development overview. This session is faster, mainly for the sake of ample time. However, based on my PPT, I also mentioned some development features of sensor and location platform. In the second session, Wu Huifeng explained the compatibility of Windows 7 development. He is indeed a senior lecturer and is very professional. In the third session, some new features of taskbar will be developed, which is also the focus of Windows 7 development. There are many features that can be discussed. However, in addition to the PPT provided by Microsoft, I focused on my work in the Code 7 competition to explain some specific development knowledge, of course, my work also involves several new features of Windows 7 in addition to taskbar. I also introduced them one by one. (For more information about resources and connections, see the following section ). In the last session, I seem to be talking too fast. If you have any questions, you can use a blog or email to communicate with me.

Windows 7 party venue

Windows 7 party is a western restaurant near Times Square. The environment is very good. There are various types of rooms. We have a "business space" under the room, that is, a small meeting room and a projection screen. The layout of the entire room is really suitable for such a communication party, but the banners didn't find a place to hang at the beginning.

Attendees

In addition to the salon members who attended the afternoon event, some of the evening parties invited friends and family to attend the event. Salon members are basically senior software developers, and invited friends also use Windows to complete related work every day. I have a deep understanding of the use of windows, and I am very interested in Windows 7.

Communication Process

At the beginning, of course, we had dinner. After dinner, we chatted freely. I 've been here. I 've played Windows 7 videos and tutorials, and shared my experience with Windows 7. Next, we talked about the experience of using Windows 7. Especially some friends are very interested in multi-touch. I believe that PCs with multi-touch in the future and applications that utilize the multi-touch featureProgramYou will be welcomed.

Answer questions from netizens (constantly adding ......) :

Chooselocation.exe in the it7source code dllfolder cannot run. It may be because your system only has. Net 4 beta 2, and. Net 4 uses the new clr4. It is compiled with 3.5. But you can download it from http://code.msdn.microsoft.com/SensorsAndLocationSource codeTo compile.

The newly added features of WPF are different from the jump list. net 4.0 will contain a system. windows. the shell namespace contains the current windowsapicodepack. I forgot to mention this on Saturday afternoon.

The plug-in I used in vs is coderushxpress,: http://downloads.devexpress.com/DXperience/2009.2/6/CodeRushXpress-9.2.6.exe

This community release activity is mainly intended for professional windows developers and has topics related to programming. For some friends, it is boring to give lectures. I think this is also determined by the positioning of the entire activity. If there is no programming Foundation, it sounds a little boring. Finally, I have reserved some time for communication. Unfortunately, no one asked questions at the time.
