After a shotgun week of Silverlight 2.0, I thought I would share a few lessons learned.
Blank page
If you get a blank page after uploading your xap file, make sure that NETWORK SERVICE is in the security accounts.
XAP File
XAP is the only file that needs to be moved typically. As you do your code updates, just move the XAP file into place.
Dynamic XAML
Dynamic XAML requires a namespace attribute now:
<Grid xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/client/2007">
Timing Issues
There seems to be a timing issue in Silverlight that is causing an event to get triggered before the data streams down from a site. This still requires investigation.
Visual Studio 2008 and Silverlight Debugging
For some reason, if a serious Silverlight error occurs, debugging will be disabled in the web application. This may make it seem like events are not firing when they are, just that the debugger is broken. Right-click properties on the web application --> Start Options --> Debuggers --> Check Silverlight
Overall
Overall, I love XAML and Silverlight. It was absolutely incredible to work with but it took a lot of time due to minimla information on the web right now. Hopefully, this post will help some other folks out.
This blog is designed to show various ways to use Data Virtualization, technologies, and SAS with Microsoft technologies with an eye toward outside of the box thinking.
