  Hi,

  I am new to the Silverlight concept & still learning it. I have a question.

  In ASP.NET, we had practice to have the UI in the ASPX page & the code behind moved to dll. I mean the business logic for the UI was from a class library & only the UI to be in ASPX pages. When the application is shipped to customers, they had the ASPX pages & the dependent assemblies & the CSS. Customers had options to modify content of the ASPX page like any button alignment/increasing the width/height   of any controls in that ASPX pages if required. Also change the CSS. So how can we achieve the same in Silverlight?

  Thanks,

  Mallikarjun

  Hi Mallikarjun,

  If your client knows how to use Visual studio or Blend, then the answer is Yes.  Otherwise, no.

  Sliverlight client will be compiled into XAP file, so your clients won't be able to edit the UI if you gave them the XAP.  However, you could create a Silverlight project which use the dlls that you mentioned and ship the source code to your clients.  You may need to use WCF services which is a bit different when you use ASP.NET.

   

  Regards

  Bill

  Hi Bill,

  Thanks for the response . I don't have issues sharing the XAML files but i can't share the code behind files. Is there any alternative.  

  Thanks,

  Hi Mallikarjun,

  Is this what you are after  http://www.silverlightshow.net/items/Creating-a-Silverlight-Custom-Control-The-Basics.aspx

  By using the custom control part, you could seperate the xaml and the code.  You could try put xaml in a project and reference the dll which has the code behind logic. 

  Because I have never been to the senario you are in, if it works, pls let me know.  Will be interesting to find out.

   

  Cheers

  Bill
