Ever heard of MyXaml?
Hi all,
I just came across this and thought it might be of interest to some of you ;-)
From their FAQs:
What Is MyXaml ?
MyXaml is a general class instantiator capable of initializing properties, wiring up events to event handlers, and drilling down into property collections, customizable with inline or code-behind, language non-specific, JIT assembling at runtime.
Umm, What Did That Mean ?
With MyXaml, you can instantiate presentation layer components such as forms and controls through markup rather than code.
You can initialize properties like color, state, captions, and collections.
You can write in-line code that is assembled and instantiated along with the form--handle events, initialize data sets, and so forth. You can write this code in whatever language is supported by .NET
You can tie in to compile-time code also.
And, nothing says you are limited to doing this with presentation layer components. Want to instantiate a connection to a database specified using markup? No problem.
It would be interesting to see what people think about it.
