Extensible Application Markup Language - Differences Between Versions of XAML

Differences Between Versions of XAML

There are four Microsoft main implementations of XAML:

  • The Windows Presentation Foundation version, which is used for the .NET Framework beginning with .NET Framework 3.0
  • The Silverlight 3 version
  • The Silverlight 4 version
  • The Windows 8 XAML/Jupiter version

These versions have some differences in the parsing behavior.

Additionally, the XAML parsing between Silverlight 3 and Silverlight 4 is not backward compatible. XAML files which are accepted by Silverlight 3 may not be accepted or parsed differently in Silverlight 4.

Famous quotes containing the words differences between, differences and/or versions:

    What strikes many twin researchers now is not how much identical twins are alike, but rather how different they are, given the same genetic makeup....Multiples don’t walk around in lockstep, talking in unison, thinking identical thoughts. The bond for normal twins, whether they are identical or fraternal, is based on how they, as individuals who are keenly aware of the differences between them, learn to relate to one another.
    Pamela Patrick Novotny (20th century)

    The extent to which a parent is able to see a child’s world through that child’s eyes depends very much on the parent’s ability to appreciate the differences between herself and her child and to respect those differences. Your own children need you to accept them for who they are, not who you would like them to be.
    Lawrence Balter (20th century)

    The assumption must be that those who can see value only in tradition, or versions of it, deny man’s ability to adapt to changing circumstances.
    Stephen Bayley (b. 1951)
