Enhancing SharePoint with Silverlight - Paul Stubbs pstubbs@microsoft.com

 

Supported out of the box in SP 2010.  Add document, browse to *.xap file into a document library.  Right click, get shortcut to clipboard.  Insert Silverlight Host container web part and paste in *.xap.  Best way though is through a WSP.  Start VS, new project, empty SharePoint project.  Deploy as sandbox solution.  Add a Silverlight project to solution.  No host needed.   Add new item to SP project, add a module.  Delete the sample.txt.  We want a reference to the *.xap package.  Click on Module1 and in the properties panel add the reference in the collection there.  Missed the exact details on how to work that magic. 

Coming soon (couple of weeks – before Thanksgiving he says) is another extension to automatically add a Silverlight Web Part.
