Windows Presentation Foundation

Hi,

What is the relationship between WPF and ASP.NET ?

Is that WPF going to replace WinForm based desktop applications? But for web
application, it is a different story?
I am going to develop a web project, ocz I'd like it to be supported by most
web brewers. I know asp.net render basic html of client side, so it is not a
problem. But will WPF .xbap file be as popular? And is it just a client
technology? If so, how can it interactive with ASP.NET?
And are there WPF newsgroup?

Thanks!

"xbap" is WPF, so is windows. If you want compatibility, you should be
looking at Silverlight 2.0, or "xap" (i.e. it creates a .xap file);
Silverlight can interact with a hosting html page (for interaction
with ASP.NET), and works on a range of browsers and platforms *if*
they have the plugin.

I don't believe winform is under any immediate threat of disappearing
due to WPF; WPF is simply another available tool for jobs where Win32
controls aren't going to be enough.

I'm hoping to get a response from developers with experience in both developing applications for Windows and the Web using VS.NET2005. I'm looking for input as to why we would want to develop a web application versus a Windows Application.

My friend told me that his company will migrate the VC++ win32 applications to C++ .NET windows applications. I don't understand why since currently Microsoft only supports .NET on windows platforms. If Win32 applications and .NET application both will run on windows only, what's the advantages for the migration? Or maybe this type of migration is not common in practice?

I'm reading up on Composite Application UI Block (CAB) and wondering if it is overkill for the enterprise Windows app we plan to build. We simply want a shell app where then each modult that is selected exists within. We could use user controls but we're not crazy about the idea. If you tell me to continue to explore CAB, I will. So, with Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF) out, is that a successor to CAB or totally separate?

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
