Eclipse Tools for Silverlight

  • Artikkeli

Busy day. A new open source project “Eclipse Tools for Silverlight” - https://www.eclipse4sl.org/ has just been announced. Full details can be found here. https://www.microsoft.com/presspass/press/2008/oct08/10-13Silverlight2PR.mspx .

This will bring the Silverlight RIA development experience to Eclipse developers and solve interoperability challenges between Silverlight and the Java middleware services that use REST, SOAP, JSON and other standards.

I am not sure that this would have happened without some really strong support from the Eclipse foundation ( https://dev.eclipse.org/blogs/mike/2008/10/13/interesting-times-indeed/ )

    If you follow the link above and go into the draft proposal you will see that XAML support is part of the proposition. Here are some basic details, but you will get the rest from the document :-
