Hello everyone,my boss asked me to turn a WPF project (8 months of work, with Infragistics 14.2) in a website MVC-HTML5 / JS.Many part of the project are managed programmatically with separation between DAL and BLL.
I ask for help / advice to understand how to do a conversion automatic or semi-automatic, or to give evidence to my boss on the impossibility of doing this activity without rewriting almost everything.
The final need is to enjoy the application on the iPad.
Thanks in advance to those who will help me.
Hi,
we have an ERP solution written in WPF in combination with Infragistics Ultimate.
The application is great but now the demand is growing to web enable parts of the application I'm confused how to approach this.
I want to keep using our BLL somehow. We have databinding and events. What's the best way to go?
Please help.
Regards Patrick
Thanks for the faster support!
Hello Andrea,
I am just checking if you have any other questions on the matter.
Hello Andrea and thank you for posting!
There is no straight forward approach of converting a WPF application in a Web application, or a Mobile Application for iOS. These are different technologies that operate in a very different manner and if you would like to convert the WPF application into an MVC project you would have to do that manually.You may consider using Silverlight as it allows delivering a rich media experience to the Web and is closed to the WPF technology. Though, if your goal is to run the application on an iPad this will not be the best solution as it does not support Silverlight and third party would have to be used. I hope this information will be useful for you. Please feel free to let me know if you have further questions.
