What do you think of WPF?
-
Well, I just wondered what other people might think about the new WPF-way to do things (especially when replacing Windows Forms)... My point of view is, that WPF is a pain in the *ss... Why in the world do I have to fire up an Expression (whatever) suite to be able to get decent UIs for my apps? Why did MS change the whole API from Win Forms to WPF so that really nothing is compatible now and you have to completly start over learning WPF!? Why is the "preferred" way of building desktop UIs now more complex than before even for simple applications and why do I have to write some XML-Pseudo HTML "dingsda" (jokerword ;) )? Is it just me? Am I the only one who feels that WPF is a huge step in a totally wrong direction? I'm looking forward to any answers! :)
