[IronPython] Loading XAML files

[Haibo Luo]

Today the Blend team gave us a short demo about their product.
I tried their internal beta2 build. Seems the issue has been addressed.

With the coming beta2, you can choose "file->new item->Page" (within a project), uncheck "include code file". The generated xaml file will not have x:Class.

Yes, I mentioned in my first message that removing x:Class made it work. The problem is that every time I use Blend, or test the program in Blend or VS-Studio, blend will put it back in, and besides, VS-Studio and Blend both need it for default code-behinds.

It is a pain to have to keep two parallel copies by hand.

I can't see why the .LoadXAML() is does not do the same scheme checks that are begin done by Blend and VS-studio. That is why I am writing this list.

Should I call it a bug?

I know little about WPF. I found http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms752309.aspx talking about x:Class attribute.

Removing x:class line, I am able to load the UserControl.

All of that XAML code is generated by BLEND. Both Blend and VS-Studio understand that x:Class is a member of the namespace. But I am also not a WPF .NET guru. What I suspect is that when I use ipy, I am not using the same libraries that do XML and XAML loading as when I use Blend and VS-Studio.

Ideas?

I am using Blend to create XAML files and testing out the design there. Then but all my code is done via Python using the Tutorials "avalon.py" module.

It works fine. Except for one annoying glitch.

But for some reason the LoadXAML() call chokes on this:


>>> w.Content = LoadXaml("WebWrapper.xaml")
'Class' attribute does not exist in XML namespace ' http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml' namespace. Line '6' Position '2'.

I know almost nothing about XAML, but that error seems to be coming not from anything related to IronPython but rather from some .Net XML parser.  Have you attempted to confirm the validity of the file by loading using any other development tool?

An XML validation tool should be able to determine the accuracy of the statement that there's no "Class" attribute in that namespace.

(Is it possible that the attribute name is "class" not "Class" ?)
