Hi, Yeah, currently there's no plan for WinRT version of Windsor. As mentioned certain APIs that Windsor relies on (like reflection emit) are not available at all, whereas some other APIs are severely limited. So to port WIndsor to WinRT would be a significantly more complex task than, say, Silverlight version, since many features would have to be rewritten and possibly removed.
About DLR, as far as I know, it uses System.Expression classes to do dynamic code. -- Krzysztof Kozmic On Thursday, 8 November 2012 at 5:29 AM, Lundberg, Per wrote: > Hi, > > The current version of Castle works correctly under Windows 8, AFAIK, if we > are talking about regular .NET mode.
