Warning

This package has been deprecated, as Microsoft now officially supports .NET 9 UWP with Visual Studio 17.12. See https://devblogs.microsoft.com/ifdef-windows/preview-uwp-support-for-dotnet-9-native-aot/ for details.

You should only use this package if:

• You need to use older versions of Visual Studio.
• You need to use older versions of .NET and/or Windows SDK. (Note: targeting .NET 8 using .NET 9 SDK works fine with official UWP support)
• You need to mix WinForms / WPF with Windows.UI.Xaml (for XAML islands) in the same project (experimental)

DisposableMemory.ModernNetUAP.WinUI works with official .NET 9 UWP support, if you wish to use WinUI 2 in that scenario.

DisposableMemory.ModernNetUAP.XamlCompiler

Provides basic support for Windows.UI.Xaml (UWP) XAML codegen in Visual Studio for Modern .NET (.NET 8+).

NuGet package

Requirements

• C#/WinRT with Windows.UI.Xaml support (2.1.1 and higher)
• Supported Windows SDK Projection packages (see C#/WinRT documentation for more information)

Content

• DisposableMemory.ModernNetUAP.XamlCompiler for basic support
• DisposableMemory.ModernNetUAP.WinUI for WinUI 2 projection

For other (non legacy .NET) WinRT components and XAML control libraries, a simple C#/WinRT projection should work starting from 0.2.0.

Acknowledgements

• Microsoft
• Mono.Cecil for fake WinMD generation
• Mile.Xaml for XAML compiler enablement
