At out next Atlanta Leading Edge Microsoft Users Group Rocky Lhotka will be talking about Oslo.  Please visit ALEMUG.NET home page to register for this exciting event!

Here are the details of this event.

Microsoft code-name “Oslo” includes the ability to define your own domain specific  language (DSL), a metadata repository hosted in SQL Server and a graphical tool (“Quadrant”) to edit that metadata. One part of the Oslo vision is that you might define a DSL, build code in your language, compile that code into the repository and then create a runtime to dynamically execute that metadata. Taking this vision and combining it with the popular CSLA .NET framework, the result is MCsla. This is a prototype DSL grammar, repository schema and runtime that dynamically creates and executes CSLA .NET business objects with a WPF UI. The result is a fully functional application that you can create with a fraction of the code you’d need to write with traditional programming techniques. Learn how MCsla was created and how it works in this rapid-fire walk through the depths of the Olso technology.
