WPF perfomance
-
We have a website and have a very complex page need to be developed. The page would contain a lot of datagrids and images that would be almost impossible to render without a page crash if we develop the page as it is. So it was suggested to develop the page in WPF instead of asp.net and then integrate it with asp.net. That is on click of a menu item it will launch a WPF UI. Is it a possible way of doing as I am totally new to WPF?

You would do better looking at SilverLight. It is certianly possible - performance is up to you though.

Oh sorry. I was asking if it is possible or not in WPF to do the functionality. is it possible or not? I don't intent to make this thread to discuss silverlight.

He wasn't he was suggesting that you use Silverlight as it is a tool that is more suited to your problem. WPF Controls in a asp.net page This might be a better starting place for you
As barmey as a sack of badgers Dude, if I knew what I was doing in life, I'd be rich, retired, dating a supermodel and laughing at the rest of you from the sidelines.

You can run a WPF app within a browser - look up XBAP but really from the brief spec you have provided SilverLight would be preferable. Functionality and performance is up to you.

Thanks! The choice of WPF was to avaoid the browser rendering time as the time is consumed more while rendering. So is it wise to create a WPF app and use libraries like XBAP?

Do you only intend to target Windows IE customers? If so, you can use an XBAP; if not, you need to look at Silverlight.
I have CDO, it's OCD with the letters in the right order; just as they ruddy well should be

Hi, Yes. Just go ahead with XBAP application which enables your application as desktop application without any performance issue.

The problem with XBAP's is that they require a certificate, and those cost money. Silverlight might be the way to go if it's all you need. If you converting a web page (e.g., Javascript, HTML, CSS) to something, then Silverlight should suffice. Silverlight supports things that will help performance, such as virtualization, though there are some differences as compared to WPF.

If you are fine with XBAP, you might as well use ClickOnce and deploy a WPF desktop app. That'd be a far more convenient approach.
