I'm researching if an idea we had today at a meeting is possible.
What we need to do is embed an ASP.NET project inside a WPF app. I'm not talking about a browser feature, the ASP.NET app is not published on any server. The idea is to avoid any server setup.
Anyone know if this is possible, or not?

Why do you want to embed an ASP.NET app inside a WPF one? Could you please elaborate on what you're trying to achieve here?

It's for demonstration.
The idea is to be able to send the customer a few demo web apps.
The demos should work out-of-the box without any setup.
I know the first idea is to have the demo apps available online, but due to some product specifics, we prefer not to.

This is an insane question. You'd have to ship your website code AND make sure IIS was set up, then use a browser control to browse to it. How else could it work. The non retarded way to do this is to have the websites in question on a hidden server, which perhaps has some sort of security built in, to try to make sure that only your WPF app could browse to the sample site.

In Windows Forms, when I set the position of an UIElement I do it that way:
UIElement.Location = new Point(X, Y);
UIElement.Location.X
UIElement.Location.Y
How can I do this simple task in Silverlight, for example with canvas, called "MyCanvas";
MyCanvas.Margin.Left
MyCanvas.Margin.Top
What is this Margin about?

From the docs: "The margin is the space between this object and
other objects that will be adjacent when layout creates the UI."
There's a variety of ways to layout elements in Silverlight/WPF beyond
simple XY coordinates. There are elements that layout their child elements,
and there are elements that layout based on their child elements. Maybe at
least glossing over the documentation will help in understanding at least
the basics of layout in Silverlight.
There's Silverlight documentation available both online[^] and offline[^].

Looks like a web service problem.
Did you adjust the web service's configuration based on the
service's published location?

Is it possible to write and run a basic Hello World Silverlight Application using just Notepad, the C* compiler and the command prompt?
Call me crazy but I like to work from first principles. Gives me a better and in-depth understanding of everything. Also helps me to give my students a fundamental view of programming
Have tried it without success and I am wondering if anyone out there has tried it?

Hi
Thanks for putting this example. But, everywhere I find example of ArrayList containg strings. Is there a way to bind a collection of custom objects?Please advise.
Something like this instead of string collection :
public AlbumCollection GetAlbums()
{
var albumCollection = new AlbumCollection();
albumCollection.Album.Add(new Album() { Description = "A1 Desc", Name = "A1 Name", Id = 1 });
albumCollection.Album.Add(new Album() { Description = "A2 Desc", Name = "A2 Name", Id = 2 });
albumCollection.Album.Add(new Album() { Description = "A3 Desc", Name = "A3 Name", Id = 3 });
albumCollection.Album.Add(new Album() { Description = "A4 Desc", Name = "A4 Name", Id = 4 });
return albumCollection;
}
--------------
public partial class AlbumCollection
{
[EditorBrowsable(EditorBrowsableState.Never)]
private List<Album> albumField;
[System.Xml.Serialization.XmlElementAttribute("Album")]
public List<Album> Album
{
get
{
if ((this.albumField == null))
{
this.albumField = new List<Album>();
}
return this.albumField;
}
set
{
this.albumField = value;
}
}
}
public partial class Album
{
[EditorBrowsable(EditorBrowsableState.Never)]
private List<Document> documentField;
public int Id { get; set; }
public string Name { get; set; }
public string Description { get; set; }
[System.Xml.Serialization.XmlElementAttribute("Document")]
public List<Document> Document
{
get
{
if ((this.documentField == null))
{
this.documentField = new List<Document>();
}
return this.documentField;
}
set
{
this.documentField = value;
}
}
}
Please advise. Thanks

Do you have an example binding to an AlbumCollection
that doesn't work?
I personally make my custom collection classes like this:
public class AlbumCollection : List<Album>
{
}
so AlbumCollection is a collection instead of contains a collection.

Hi All,
I am just starting with WPF to implement rich GUI application. I have design in my mind and would like you to give suggestion to make it better.
---------------------------------------------------
dropDown1 dropdown2 dropdown3
----------........---------........---------
..........|......|.........|......|.........|
..........|......|.........|......|.........|
..........|......|container|......|container|
Tree view.|......|..with...|......|..with...|
..........|......|.multiple|......|.multiple|
..........|......|list view|......|list view|
..........|......|.........|......|.........|
..........|......|.........|......|.........|
----------.......-----------......-----------
---------------------------------------------------
Above is the design i would like to implement. How it should work?
- a user will select an option from dropDown1 and treeview will be filled with hierarchy of active, pending, closed guests.
- When user will select an option from dropDown2/dropDown3 it will fill respective containers with list views (no of list views will be decided at run time by retrieving count from DB so there is requirement that container should pop up scrollbars if listviews crosses the bounds)
- Now user will move (drag and drop) guest from treeview to list view.
This is how application would work. I need your suggestion if this would be easy to implement in WPF. Also share your view on this.
Thanks,
AksharRoop

Yes.
That question is really relative to who answers it.
If you don't think it would be easy, then I reckon you
have some studying to do

There's tons of sample code floating around the internet and on
this site.
I highly recommend studying at least the first 3 or 4 chapters
of the WPF documentation...It will save you a lot of time in the
long run...

hi guys,
I've developed a graph control in GDI+ and used a timer in it.. now i'm converting it to WPF. but when i went on and search for a timer there is no timers in WPF... how can i resolve this problem?any alternative to use?
regards,
rangana.

You can use System.Threading.Timer just like you would in non-WPF code. The problem that you will likely encounter is that DependencyObjects (many object within WPF derive from a DependencyObject) often need to be used within in the object's original thread context. This is easily handled by having your background thread trigger an action within the dependency object's thread. For example to make a TextBlock with a background that alternates between red and blue every 1 second, try the following:
using System.Threading;
using System.Windows;
using System.Windows.Controls;
using System.Windows.Media;
class FlashingText : TextBlock
{
Timer timer;
public FlashingText() {
timer = new Timer(new TimerCallback(Flash), null, 0, 1000);
}
void Flash(object state) {
Dispatcher.BeginInvoke(DispatcherPriority.Normal, new Action(ToggleColor));
}
void ToggleColor() {
Background = Background == Brushes.Blue ? Brushes.Red : Brushes.Blue;
}
}
A few notes of caution:
I have not tested the code above, I just scribbled it out to illustrate a concept. It may need a few tweaks to compile.
Also, composing a graph with a large number of elements within WPF will often slow the UI thread and may lead to temporary hanging of the UI. To reduce this problem, there are a number of techniques that can reduce or eliminate this issue. In my experience, drawing more than a few thousand points is likely to provide disappointing UI interaction without an efficient design.

Look at some of the WPF articles here on CodeProject, there is a superb collection of free code and step by step guidance.

I have defined a grid like this:
<br />
<Grid.RowDefinitions> <br />
<RowDefinition Height="Auto"/><br />
<RowDefinition Height="*" MinHeight="300" /><br />
<RowDefinition Height="Auto"/><br />
<RowDefinition Height="Auto"/><br />
</Grid.RowDefinitions>
I would like to know what the height of Grid.Row 1 is at runtime. Giving it a name and asking for the height only returns a "*". Is there a way to determine this?
Thanks
