Last week I was looking at building a declarative data source control similar to the ObjectDataSource in ASP.NET and ran into a roadblock pretty quickly. Obviously for a control of this nature I want a few properties of type System.Type.
The first time I did some control development for Silverlight I ran into a major stumbling block, whatever I put into Generic.xaml just wasn't showing up and none of the tutorials I could find were showing anything different from what I was doing. After some digging through Silverlight with Reflector and a few forum searches show up the culprit … "DefaultStyleKey".
Silverlight has an excellent animation system, built on top of storyboards and various sorts of animation classes.
