I started working with the new Microsoft WinFX technology stack early in the beta and Community Technology Preview (CTP) stages. The foundations that began their life as WinFX (Windows Pres- tation, Windows Communication, and Windows Workflow) became a shipping Microsoft product named .NET Framework 3.0 in November 2006. I actually started to learn and use all three of these foundations at the same time in my day job. Talk about a massive learning curve. While I was impressed with the flexibility and capabilities of Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF) and Windows Communication Foundation (WCF), I was somehow inexplicably drawn to Windows Workflow Foundation (WF). WF isn''t just a new way to implement a user interface or a new way to communicate between applications and services. WF represents a completely new way to develop applications. It is declarative, visual, and infinitely flexible. It promotes a model that cleanly separates what to do from when to do it. This separation allows you to change the workflow model (the when) without affecting the what. Business logic is implemented as a set of discrete, testable components that are assembled into workflows like building blocks. Workflow isn''t a new concept. But when Microsoft spends years developing a workflow foun- tion and provides it to us without cost, it is an event worth noting. Other workflow frameworks exist, but WF is the de facto standard workflow framework for Windows applications. | Pro WF by Bruce Bukovics Paperback | Indigo Chapters Books > Software Engineer P10116, Bruce Bukovics<

Windows Workflow Foundation is a groundbreaking addition to the core of the .NET Framework that allows you to orchestrate human and system interactions as a series of workflows that can be easily mapped, analyzed, adjusted, and implemented. As business problems become more complex, the need for a workflow–based solution has never been more evident. WF provides a simple and consistent way to model and implement complex solutions. As a developer, you focus on developing the business logic for individual workflow tasks. The runtime handles the execution of those tasks after they have been composed into a workflow. Pro WF: Windows Workflow in .NET 3.5 provides you with the skills you need to incorporate WF into your applications. This book gets you up to speed with Windows Workflow Foundation quickly and comprehensively. The practical aspects of using WF are covered in a lively tutorial style with each workflow concept illustrated in C#. You'll find detailed coverage of how to customize your workflows and access them in a variety of ways and situations so you can maximize the advantages of this technology. Pro WF: Windows Workflow in .NET 3.5 is written by an experienced Windows and .NET developer. Rather than simply duplicating the available references on the subject, author Bruce Bukovics leads you through a series of practical WF topics that enable you to gain immediate experience and learn how to use the technology as you progress through the book., Apress<
