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:

    The mother must teach her son how to respect and follow the rules. She must teach him how to compete successfully with the other boys. And she must teach him how to find a woman to take care of him and finish the job she began of training him how to live in a family. But no matter how good a job a woman does in teaching a boy how to be a man, he knows that she is not the real thing, and so he tends to exaggerate the differences between men and women that she embodies.
    Frank Pittman (20th century)

    The country is fed up with children and their problems. For the first time in history, the differences in outlook between people raising children and those who are not are beginning to assume some political significance. This difference is already a part of the conflicts in local school politics. It may spread to other levels of government. Society has less time for the concerns of those who raise the young or try to teach them.
    Joseph Featherstone (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)
