Version: 1.0.0.8 (Milestone 8): This release contains the source code of the WPF Application Framework (WAF) and the sample applications.

Unfortunately, it was necessary to introduce a few breaking changes in the WAF 1.0.0.8 release. The post Breaking changes in WAF 1.0.0.8 should help you to adapt the changes in your code.

Requirements

• .NET Framework 3.5 SP1 (The package contains a solution file for Visual Studio 2008 SP1)
• The unit test projects require Visual Studio 2008 SP1 Professional

Remark
The ViewModel sample uses Microsoft’s IoC container MEF. However, the WPF Application Framework (WAF) doesn’t force you to use the same IoC container in your application. You can use an IoC container of your choice or use no IoC container at all and write the code yourself that wires the View and the ViewModel at runtime together. We don’t limit your freedom at choosing an IoC container for your application.
