Windows Forms Interop with WPF Question

Hi,
I have a WPF User Control that essentially encapsulates a WPF Window. The
user control is hosted in an element host on a Windows Form. How can I tell
the Windows Form to close based on events that occur in my WPF User Control?
One major limitation... I cannot reference my Windows Forms project in my WPF
User Control as that would create a circular reference.
Thanks.
 
Hi John,

You can attach handlers to the WPF control's events in your Windows form,
so that when the specified event ocurrs in the WPF control, you can get
notified and close the Windows form.

For more information on how to do this, please refer to the following MSDN
document:

'How to: Host a Windows Presentation Foundation Control in Windows Forms by
Using ElementHost'
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms754008.aspx

Hope this helps.
If you have any question, please feel free to let me know.

Sincerely,
Linda Liu
