Telerik RadTransition in Windows Phone 7 Via WCF Service

Introduction

Today, in this article let's learn another interesting concept related to Windows Phone 7, whereby communicating with a WCF Service to perform some operation.

The Telerik Rad Controls for Windows Phone 7 can be found from http://www.telerik.com/products/windows-phone.aspx.

The Rad Message Box is used to display the output in a nice and enhanced UI.

Question: What is RadTransition?

In simple terms "It enables to define unique set of animations and get's rendered to specific controls".

Let's get this implemented practically for a better idea of this!!!

Step 1: The complete code of the IService1.cs looks like this:

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Runtime.Serialization;
using System.ServiceModel;
using System.ServiceModel.Web;
using System.Text;

namespace WCF_Transition
{
// NOTE: You can use the "Rename" command on the "Refactor" menu to change the interface name "IService1" in both code and config file together.
[ServiceContract]
public interface IService1
{

[OperationContract]
double add(double a, double b);

[OperationContract]
double sub(double a, double b);

[OperationContract]
double mul(double a, double b);

[OperationContract]
double div(double a, double b);
}
}

Step 2: The complete code of the Service1.svc.cs looks like this:

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Runtime.Serialization;
using System.ServiceModel;
using System.ServiceModel.Web;
using System.Text;

namespace WCF_Transition
{
// NOTE: You can use the "Rename" command on the "Refactor" menu to change the class name "Service1" in code, svc and config file together.
public class Service1 : IService1
{

public double add(double a, double b)
{
return a + b;
}

public double sub(double a, double b)
{
return a - b;
}

public double mul(double a, double b)
{
return a * b;
}
public double div(double a, double b)
{
return a / b;
}
}
}

Step 3: The complete code of the Web.Config looks like this:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<configuration>

<system.web>
<compilation debug="true" targetFramework="4.0" />
</system.web>
<system.serviceModel>
<behaviors>
<serviceBehaviors>
<behavior>

<serviceMetadata httpGetEnabled="true"/>

<serviceDebug includeExceptionDetailInFaults="false"/>
</behavior>
</serviceBehaviors>
</behaviors>
<serviceHostingEnvironment multipleSiteBindingsEnabled="true" />
</system.serviceModel>
<system.webServer>
<modules runAllManagedModulesForAllRequests="true"/>
</system.webServer>

</configuration>

Step 4: The complete code of the MainPage.xaml looks like this:

<phone:PhoneApplicationPage xmlns:telerik="clr-namespace:Telerik.Windows.Controls;assembly=Telerik.Windows.Controls.Primitives"
x:Class="Rad_Transition_Application.MainPage"

<TextBlock x:Name="PageTitle" Text="Windows 7 Phone" Margin="9,-7,0,0" Style="{StaticResource PhoneTextTitle1Style}"/>
</StackPanel>

<Grid x:Name="ContentPanel" Grid.Row="1" Margin="12,0,12,0">
<telerik:RadTransitionControl x:Name="radTransition1">
<telerik:RadTransitionControl.Content>

</Grid>

</telerik:RadTransitionControl>

</Grid>
