Question

I need to show a silverlight webpart in sharepoint 2010.

This is my code, to show silverlight control

protected override void CreateChildControls()
{
    Silverlight sl = new Silverlight();
    sl.ID = "CustomWebPart1SL";
    sl.Source = "/Silverlight/CustomWebPart.xap";
    this.Controls.Add(sl);
}

In Silverlight I just hotcoded the data so the chart is rendering correctly in Sharepoint page.

The problem is I couldn’t access Sharepoint list from silverlight application.

How to access the list and property-bag from silverlight application. Or how can I pass those datas as DataTable to silverlight from WebPart code.

And silverlight not supporting DataTable object. What is the reason.
