Hi Yes the button control is available. The code that goes with that blog post uses a button. I want to improve that code still because you can do more with IronRuby than that. I just need some time to do it. http://flanders.co.nz/2008/04/06/an-ironruby-digg-client/
Basically you need to add the assemblies System.Windows.Controls and System.Windows.Controls.Extended to your app folder. You can find those assemblies in program files\microsoft sdks\Silverlight\v2.0 You also need to add a AppManifest.xaml file to your app folder and that should contain: <Deployment xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/client/2007/deployment"; xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"; RuntimeVersion="2.0.30226.00" EntryPointAssembly="Microsoft.Scripting.Silverlight" EntryPointType="Microsoft.Scripting.Silverlight.DynamicApplication"> <Deployment.Parts> <!-- Add additional assemblies here --> <AssemblyPart Name="Microsoft.Scripting.Silverlight" Source="Microsoft.Scripting.Silverlight.dll" /> <AssemblyPart Source="Microsoft.Scripting.dll" /> <!-- Silverlight SDK controls assemblies --> <AssemblyPart Source="System.Windows.Controls.dll" /> <AssemblyPart Source="System.Windows.Controls.Extended.dll" /> <AssemblyPart Source="System.Xml.Linq.dll" /> <AssemblyPart Source="IronRuby.dll" /> <AssemblyPart Source="IronRuby.Libraries.dll" /> </Deployment.Parts> </Deployment> from then on you can use the button control but you still need to add the namespace to your xaml file. I have this for a button. <UserControl x:Class="System.Windows.Controls.UserControl" xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/client/2007"; xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"; xmlns:c="clr-namespace:System.Windows.Controls;assembly=System.Windows.Controls" xmlns:e="clr-namespace:System.Windows.Controls;assembly=System.Windows.Controls.Extended" > <Grid> <e:WatermarkedTextBox x:Name="search_textbox" Watermark="Topic..." FontFamily="Trebuchet MS" Grid.Column="1" FontSize="12" Padding="1,3,1,1" /> <c:Button Content="Search" x:Name="search_button" Style="{StaticResource SearchButton}" /> </Grid> hth Ivan On Wed, Apr 9, 2008 at 12:16 AM, Thibaut Barrère <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi, > > Is it currently possible to add children to an existing Silverlight > control from the ruby code side ?
