I wouldn't be so sure of that. Using WPF XAML
(http://windowssdk.msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms754130.aspx), you can
create XAML Browser Applications
(http://windowssdk.msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms749326.aspx), which
are . Net applications hosted in a browser interface, but use XAML as the
markup language.

I just flew in from Chicago with
a man with a wooden leg named Smith
who shot an elephant in my pajamas.
So I bit him.

No, it won't, the WPF designer is still in it's early design phase and
extremely limited in capabilities. Remember Orcas is scheduled to hit the
streets late 2007 early 2008, I guess we still have a number of CTP's to
go
before we will see a fully functional designer.

Willy.

Since when has any IDE been fully functional? :P

Myth
 
Also got WCF, InfoCard, and WF. There is more to web apps (or any app) then
just the UI.

Right, should have said "reasonably usable" ;-)

Willy.
 
Any chance you can educate some of us on the abbreviations like RTM, CTP,
etc.? Any info would be appreciated...or maybe webiste that can explain
these abbv's.

WWF = Windows WorkFlow Foundation
RTM = Release To Manufacturers
VS = Visual Studio
EXT = Extensions
4 = For
WPF = Windows Presentation Foundation
WCF = Windows Communication Foundation
CTP = Community Technology Preview
AFAIK = As Far As I Know
ROFLMOD = Rolling on the Floor... (have to leave a little mystery for you!)
OK = All Correct
WTF = What the F***
KS = Kevin Spencer
MS MVP = Microsoft MostValuable Professional
MSD = Ministry of Software Development

Sorry, I couldn't resist, with all those acronyms floating around. I got a
little carried away!

Rolling on floor, lost my one dollar?

That's a shame - you should be more careful next time :p
 
Thanks a bunch. Now all I've got to do is learn the implications of these.
I did, however, manage to guess a few like VS, Ext, MVP.
 
Hi,

Probably up to 60% of the time of any software developer nowadays is
spent learning what the heck the abbreviations mean ;-)

HTH, (hope that helps)

So what Kevin was really trying to say is that

AFAIK .NET 3.0 FW is RTM but WWF/WFP/WCF EXT 4 VS are CTP
 
Gee, I thought it was "Rolling on the floor like my old dog."

As my Uncle Chutney sez:

Ambiguity has a certain quality to it.

Would be nice if Msoft fixed the bugs and other BS in VS 2003 and VS
2005 before coming out with new and probably very buggy Orcas version!

Microsoft sure knows it's priorities :-(
