Xamlon, Flash and unit tests
Before I catch some zzzz I figured I would post something on Xamlon's announcement that they have preview versions of XAML for Flash and CF.
Xamlon staffer Robin Debreuil has the news. Robin has stated that the product will allow for Flash applications to be
coded in XAML and any language you choose as long as it compiles to the CLR (a la C#, VB.NET etc etc). Been saying it for a long, long time and it will be interesting to see what this means for Flex and Laszlo. No longer will this mean that a developer will need to use scripting language such as AS when they can use the same language they have always used, day in, day out. Some notation that Xamlon may aim for Mono too, again what this means for everybody else in the space will be interesting to see. Would love to see a server product from Xamlon for XAML/Flash and XAML/Avalon delivery.
Some discussion on unit testing with XAML, I lack the time to look into the depths of the product my self but with a trappable event model it would be a matter of hooking NUnit/MbUnit up (as seen in NUnitForms or NUnitASP). If I ever find the cycles I'll see what I can muster up.
