If you needed a developer to create WPF-based Windows applications, what topics would you cover and focus on in the technical interview?
I'd check to see if the candidate understands basic stuff like data binding, dependency/attached properties, the relation between xaml and code, defining and using styles, custom data templates, and then of course whether the candidate has a decent understanding of C# and .NET in general.

Well, regardless of how much you like WPF-based user interfaces, it is growing in popularity. 237 results on Dice.com and growing.
I was just answering your question. At no time did I offer up my views on WPF in that response. Lastly, my views of anything spewed out of Redmond are often severely out of line with what their fanboys are thinking. As with everything else in programming, just because you *can* use WPF, doesn't necessarily mean you *should*. I only work in .Net now because I have to - it doesn't mean I like it. Wow! 237 results on Dice? You should be here - my mouth is agape in awe and surprise... This response was brought to you by Dripping In Sarcasm, Inc. We're not impressed, and we want you to know it.

So I take it you didn't like the 3-boobed chick from Total Recall?

My latest book : C++/CLI in Action / Amazon.com linkA choice between two boobs is hard enough. Add a third, and I tend to lose interest...

My latest book : C++/CLI in Action / Amazon.com link3 boobs tends to break the natural symmetry of the feminine form, so it's really a lose-lose proposition.
