This I understand was done because of IntelliSense, which is great. Now I have lear ...Show All

• Snortblt WPF in Feb CTP still breaking wherever!

  The last time it threw exceptions when deserializing the BAML left and right trying to run compiled applications, if I was lucky, I managed it to run once, if it was the first WPF application to run on my system. The reason where was that it was a known bug related to non-SSE2 CPUs. Meanwhile I upgraded my machine to an Athlon64 X2, instead of exceptions, the application is dieing now due to simple breakpoints. I still only manage to run it once ...Show All

I tried the samples here  on XamlPad... I can click on a button at a rate of about 2-3 times a second, and my CPU usage will jolt up to 100%. Most other sample applications run just as slow. Max runs okay, except tha ...Show All
