• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Compiling XAML

  I'm not 100% clear about the relationship between XAML and IL. As far as I can tell, you can compile XAML but it ends up as BAML rather than IL. Equally, my understanding is that anything you can do in XAML you can also do in C# (declarative vs procedural). If so, presumably it would be possible to compile XAML to IL, even if this is not what happens. Another interesting question: if C# compiles to IL, but XAML does not, then what are the pro ...Show All

  May be it's too late, but I think this requests could be scheduled at least for a SP1 if it's not possible for the RTM. 1) Execute Task without debugger: it would be very nice to be able to execute a single task without going in debugging mode. Just as you would ask "Start Without Debugging CTRL+F5" but for a single task 2) Customize default properties for task and component: when you drag a task on the package you get a default value for the ...Show All
