Introduction
The Telerik Rad Controls for Windows Phone 7 can be obtained from http://www.telerik.com/products/windows-phone.aspx.
The Rad Message Box is used to display output in a nice and enhanced UI.
Question: What is RadRating Control?
In simple terms "It enables user to rate an item based on usage and benfit provides. It enables to evaluvate through user rating system. The user needs to be tapped to rate an item. The item can be anything an application or movie or photos, survey, comments and so on".
Let's get this implemented practically for a better idea of this!!!
Step 1: The complete code of the IService1.cs looks like this:
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Runtime.Serialization;
using System.ServiceModel;
using System.ServiceModel.Web;
using System.Text;
using PhoneApp2;
namespace WCF_Rad_Rating
{
// NOTE: You can use the "Rename" command on the "Refactor" menu to change the interface name "IService1" in both code and config file together.
[ServiceContract]
public interface IService1
{
[OperationContract]
double add(double a, double b);
[OperationContract]
double sub(double a, double b);
[OperationContract]
double mul(double a, double b);
[OperationContract]
double div(double a, double b);
}
}
Step 2: The complete code of the Service1.svc.cs looks like this:
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Runtime.Serialization;
using System.ServiceModel;
using System.ServiceModel.Web;
using System.Text;
namespace WCF_Rad_Rating
{
// NOTE: You can use the "Rename" command on the "Refactor" menu to change the class name "Service1" in code, svc and config file together.
public class Service1 : IService1
{
public double add(double a, double b)
{
return a + b;
}
public double sub(double a, double b)
{
return a - b;
}
public double mul(double a, double b)
{
return a * b;
}
public double div(double a, double b)
{
return a / b;
}
}
}
Step 3: The complete code of the Web.Config looks like this:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<configuration>
<system.web>
<compilation debug="true" targetFramework="4.0" />
</system.web>
<system.serviceModel>
<behaviors>
<serviceBehaviors>
<behavior>
<!-- To avoid disclosing metadata information, set the value below to false and remove the metadata endpoint above before
deployment -->
<serviceMetadata httpGetEnabled="true"/>
<!-- To receive exception details in faults for debugging purposes, set the value below to true. Set to false before deployment to avoid
disclosing exception information -->
<serviceDebug includeExceptionDetailInFaults="false"/>
</behavior>
</serviceBehaviors>
</behaviors>
<serviceHostingEnvironment multipleSiteBindingsEnabled="true" />
</system.serviceModel>
<system.webServer>
<modules runAllManagedModulesForAllRequests="true"/>
</system.webServer>
</configuration>
Step 4: The complete code of the MainPage.xaml looks like this:
<phone:PhoneApplicationPage x:Class="Rad_Rating_Application.MainPage"

</Grid>
</Grid>
</phone:PhoneApplicationPage>
Step 5: The complete code of the the MainPage.xaml.cs looks like this:
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Net;
using System.Windows;
using System.Windows.Controls;

}
#region Instance Variables Service1Client objClient = new Service1Client();
#endregion
}
}
Step 6: The output of the application looks like this:

Step 7: The output of the Addition Operation Application looks like this:
![rating2.png]()
![rating3.png]()
Step 8: The output of the Rating Selected Item Application looks like this:
![rating4.png]()
