Hi Js-support,

I usualy feel very happy with all the new releases, but I didn't see much changes with this migration version :( ,I don't understand the goal.
I mean... I've been doing the migration of some small projects by hand, I tought this migration version will give me some kind of advantage but I have to do all by hand in the same way I use to do.... So...Unless I'm doing something wrong or didn't understand the concept, this new feature is not bringing nothing new. :?


Best regards

zemorango

Thanks zemorango for checking it out.

We will be adding more and more features to make the migration easier, including possibly a "Migration Wizard" that will help create the projects with the C# files being added "As Link" while the XAML files are copied, and more.

In the current Beta 10.4 release, you can already benefit from the fact that the namespaces have been changed so that they are the same as in Silverlight (when using one of the new "Silverlight Migration Edition" project templates). In other words, you no longer have to modify the "usings" of your C# classes when migrating your Silverlight apps. Can you please confirm that this feature works fine on your computer?

Thanks again.

Regards,
JS-Support

Hi Js-Support,

Ok, so this migration version is just version 1, I'm look foward for the next releases, :D
and yes I confirm that the Namespaces are just like the silverlight projects, is working :)

ps: One thing that the future migration wizard should have is a way to change rowspan and columnspan to nested grids, I would save a huge amont of time, also tags like <telerik:Radbutton or <telerik:Label or any other non standard silverlight XAML component should be transformed to <button or <textBlock, the migration kit should have some kind of dicionary with this tags and be smart enought to do the replacement or sugest that replacement in the XAML file, this is just one idea... what do you think?


Regards

Personally I think that rather than spending time on migration wizards it would be better to continue to implement missing features so that we can migrate more of the project. Keep up the good work guys!
