XAML and Boo in Sharpdevelop

Question

I am able to create and run boo console applications in Sharpdevelop.

Is there a way to specify the UI using XAML markup and write the code behind in boo for WPF development in Sharpdevelop? If not is there any other alternative for WPF development in boo?

Answer 1

The build option 'Page' for XAML requires that the XamlMarkupCompiler (included with MSBuild) outputs code in the project's language. That's only supported for C# and VB.

However, you could use the build option 'EmbeddedResource' and then parse the .xaml at runtime using XamlLoader.
