Windows Presentation Foundation Book Update
If you have purchased or intend to purchase “Programming Windows Presentation Foundation” by Chris Sells and Ian Griffiths, be sure to note that there are a number of errata/changes already available for the book (here). The most recent changes bring the book content up to the functionality and behavior of the September CTP builds of WPF (which is what they made available at the PDC).
The book has been good so far, decent coverage of a lot of important topics. I was bothered by how many of the samples didn’t work (knowing that it was because the book was written to Beta 1), but it wasn’t immediately obvious what the right fixes were — so I’m happy that they continue to update the content (too bad my physical book can’t just be updated somehow!). More than just fixes though, they explain some of the features and controls that are available in the September CTP build (such as a tree and list view control).
