Finally I have got some time to taste XAML!

Finally I have got some time to taste XAML!

This weekend I played some time with XAML; very interesting language!

Here is my first XAML program:

<DockPanel ID="root"
           xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/2003/xaml/"
           xmlns:def="Definition">

<TextBox Width="200" Height="50">
    <Text>&#x0C36;&#x0C40; &#x0C27; &#x0C4D;  &#x0C15;&#x0C4B; &#x0C17;&#x0C02; &#x0C1F;&#x0C3F;</Text>
  </TextBox>

<TextBox ID="tb1"
  Width="200" Height="50" 
  DockPanel.Top="50px"
  > Sreedhar Koganti </TextBox>

  
</DockPanel>

and the output for the program is:

I tried to show my name in my native language (Telugu) and in English!! Well it worked!! Very interesting simple first program!!

Well, I do have a question!

We have many .Net languages now, then why we are end up having one more language (XAML)!! Are there any advantages we are going to have with this than other languages?? Any one has answer!!! If you have, please share with me!

I do like XAML and it’s very interesting! ofcourse Validation rules are the best part in it upto now, they are very useful in real time!! Still long way to go in learning it more!!
