WinForms to XAML UI Converter

I’m happy to see Davide Senatore is publishing a WF2XAML converter! If you are interested in converting a WinForms (including Windows Mobile app < v7) to Silverlight, Windows Phone, or WPF – this looks very interesting!

# re: WinForms to XAML UI Converter@ Sunday, April 18, 2010 12:26 PM

Accidentally deleted 2 comments:

1) somebody was crashing on Win7. You should comment on Davide's blog, and he'll know...

2) somebody complained that absolute positioning, just gets translated into absolute positioning.

 -- That is a great point. That sounds like a general purpose utility that could help evolve size and location hard coding to more dynamic layout. I'd love to see code like that exist to morph a hard coded UI to be more dynamically layed out. Perhaps the UI could be loaded into a XamlDom, and then it could be morped as appropriate.

Thanks,

-Rob
