Learning Caliburn.Micro

Over the last few weeks I have been writing some in-depth articles for my Learning Caliburn.Micro series. Today is a brief side-discussion where I introduce a ReSharper File Template to help with the task of generating view-models.

It has been about two weeks since my last post in my Learning Caliburn.Micro series, so it far past the time for this post. Prepare the Project # This post is going to focus on using the Autofac IoC with Caliburn.Micro. From the point of view of the framework it fulfills the same task as the MEF bootstrapper I discussed in Caliburn.Micro the MEFtacluar, or Rob discussed in Caliburn.Micro Soup to Nuts Pt. 2 – Customizing The Bootstrapper. The difference is that it uses Autofac instead of MEF.

Caliburn.Micro Logging Abstraction # This post covers logging. Caliburn.Micro has a simple logging abstraction that consists of an ILog interface, and a LogManager class (see below).

I was going to call this post ‘How I learned to stop worrying and love MEF .’, but I am not sure enough people would get the reference. Besides, it would put the focus too much on MEF , and not on Caliburn.Micro , which is the topic of the post.

In this post we are going to create a simple WPF application using Caliburn.Micro . I have created an empty Visual Studio 2010 solution for all the projects in this blog series. All of the code for this series will be available on my Github Learning Caliburn.Micro repository. But I suggest you follow along, and try and do it yourself.
