The design of WPF-based Hunan University simple tourist system
Abstract
As the requirements of users become more and more complex, the majority of applications have gradually failed to meet users' demand for greater and all-round user experience now. In order to provide more effective visual experience to UI, Microsoft brings out a new graphics subsystem named Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF) in the latest release of Windows Vista development library.
The main content of the present design is to discuss WPF's structure, the techniques and methods it provides. On the background of techniques of .NET Framework3.0, the present design uses a unified programming model under which UI and the logical code are separated. In this design, the UI and controls are developed by the latest Microsoft development tool, Expression Blend, using WPF services and support of 3D graphics to implement the 3D application framework with gorgeous UI. These UI designs should be built into XAML resource document and imported to VS2005. Lastly, the XAML resource document will be integrated with hidden logical code and XML data files in the VS2005. The present design implements a simple tourist system with rich user experience, which enables user to view the campus' scenery by academy.
