I'm struggling to get the framework to work with a visual studio package I created.
This is my package "exit" point:
[Guid("9151937e-5f9e-48e9-b7ca-6894ff68c292")]
public class MyToolWindow: ToolWindowPane
{
public MyToolWindow() :
base(null)
{
this.Caption = Resources.ToolWindowTitle;
this.BitmapResourceID = 301;
this.BitmapIndex = 1;
//MainView main = new MainView(Some.Container);
//main.OnError += MainOnOnError;
// ?????
base.Content = new ShellView(Some.Container);
}
}
This works but this is not starting the bootstrapper. As I understand the bootstrapper will only fire on a WPF application (documentation) but my application consists only of a class library holding the view+viewmodels.
I created an App.xaml file in that assembly:
<ResourceDictionary x:Class="Boulet.Speciaal.App"
xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
xmlns:local="clr-namespace:Boulet.Speciaal">
<ResourceDictionary.MergedDictionaries>
<ResourceDictionary>
<local:ShellBoot x:Key="bootstrapper" />
</ResourceDictionary>
</ResourceDictionary.MergedDictionaries>
</ResourceDictionary>
And this is what my Bootstrapper looks like:
public class ShellBoot: Bootstrapper<ShellViewModel>
{
public ShellBoot(IServiceContainer package)
{
DisplayRootViewFor<ShellViewModel>();
Start();
}
}
I think the base.Content needs to be set on a View/Usercontrol but I don't know how to fool the framework.
