Xceed is poised to launch Xceed Upload for Silverlight, its offering
in support of Microsoft’s promising new Silverlight technology.
Slated for release in May or June 2008, Xceed Upload for
Silverlight provides programmers with HTTP upload capabilities for C# and
VB.NET development using Silverlight. Whether client software needs to upload
single files, groups of files, or strings to Web servers, Xceed Upload for
Silverlight makes implementation fast and easy. In batch mode, file transfer is
deferred, letting the application gather data from different sources, such as
form controls, performing the actual transfer when it is ready. Uploads are
asynchronous for optimum performance, so the client software remains responsive
throughout the operation.
The HTTP requests produced by the component use the standard
MIME format for uploading data through the "multipart/form-data"
content type. Events allow an application to set important fields in
the HTTP request and to monitor the upload operation. The GZip or Deflate
compression method can be used and the compression level set. Lastly, Base64
binary encoding is available to support Web browsers that do not allow the
upload of non-ASCII data.
Xceed Upload for Silverlight is provided with comprehensive
documentation that fully integrates into Visual Studio, as well as
C#, VB.NET, and JavaScript sample applications. It supports Windows
Vista, Windows XP SP2, Windows 2000, and Windows Server 2003 (except IA-64),
and runs in Internet Explorer 7 and 6, Firefox 2 and 1.5, and Safari (Mac OS
10.4.8+ only). Some OS/browser combinations are not supported by Silverlight.
Xceed Upload for Silverlight will initially target
Silverlight 2 Beta 1. Subsequent versions of Silverlight—Microsoft’s
cross-browser, cross-platform, and cross-device implementation of the .NET
Framework for building and delivering rich, interactive applications for the
Web and mobile devices—will be supported by Xceed Upload for Silverlight soon
after their release.
Once Xceed Upload for Silverlight is released, a fully
functional free trial version of this 100%-managed component will be available
for download on Xceed’s website.
