Silverlight 3 Quick Tip #2: How to prepare your Silverlight 3 application offline
Today I’ll show probably one of most expected features – taking Silverlight application offline.
To do it all you need to do is to add new section to AppManifest.xml. The section should be like following example:
<Deployment.ApplicationIdentity>
<ApplicationIdentity ShortName="Silverlight Offline Demo" Title="Silverlight Offline Application Demo">
<ApplicationIdentity.Blurb>This is sample application to show Silverlight 3 offline support. Created by Alex Golesh, 28 Feb 2009</ApplicationIdentity.Blurb>
<ApplicationIdentity.Icons>
<Icon Size="16x16">Icons/016x016.png</Icon>
<Icon Size="32x32">Icons/032x032.png</Icon>
<Icon Size="48x48">Icons/048x048.png</Icon>
<Icon Size="128x128">Icons/128x128.png</Icon>
</ApplicationIdentity.Icons>
</ApplicationIdentity>
</Deployment.ApplicationIdentity>
The icons section is optional – the runtime has standard icons in case you will not provide them; but if you decided to provide them, make sure your icons will be compiled as “Content” files.
No sources this time :)
Stay tuned to more tips and enjoy,
