Pattern of pub-sub events is that the publisher should not know or care if there are any subscribers out there, nor should it care what the subscribers do if they are there (from Brian Noyes' blog) What are the best practices to using EventAggregator in Prism? Currently I have few modules which are loosely coupled and wo...
We are starting to use Silverlight 3 and PRISM and are successful to load modules by reading from a XAML file. However, I would like to be able to read those definitions from a database table using a WCF call. I have the WCF call returning data, however WCF is called asynchronously and I cannot get this to work using any of the sta...

I am creating a Composite WPF (Prism) app with several different projects (Shell, modules, and so on). I am getting ready to implement logging, using Log4Net. It seems there are two ways to set up the logging: Let the Shell project do all of the actual logging. It gets the reference to Log4Net, and other projects fire composite events ...
I've start using prism with silverlight 3, but, we are trying to implement it to work with ADO.NET DataServices. The "DataServiceQuery" query type required to use with Silverlight, requires a Asyncronous call to be fired after the query. This will break ous Prism Pattern by what I can see. Any ideas to get only the data of the query to u...

I'm using Prism for navigation in my Wpf application. I have a few modules, and each of them is registering themselves in a main menu through common commands sent using the IoC container in the bootstrapper. The menu entries are bound to common commands for navigation - which will open the correct view in some Region. All is based on rec...
I'm working on implementing an event aggregation with Prism. I have a few modules, and I want each of them to subscribe to events that tells them when they are requested. I started out doing an all plain example with both subscribed and publisher in the shell. No problems there. Now; when I move the subscribers out to my modules they don...

I'm using Prism and the Unity IoC container that comes along with Prism. However, I'd like to use a different IoC container if that's doable. So; is it? Preferrably I'd like to use StructureMap. Note that I'm not yet familiar with StructureMap, but based on several recommendations I'd like to give it a try. The question is really how t...
With Visual stuido 2010, it's simple to set up SL4 to debug with an out-of-browser installed app. I followed the instructions from here and everything seems to set up fine. Debugging from the browser runs the program just fine, but running from the OOB program gives a different result. After starting, the screen will go blank and then...
