While setting up my Prism WPF solution I had added a project as Class library. Just realized I want it as a WPF user control library to add resource dictionaries and other WPF related stuff. Is there a way to convert my class library project to WPF user control library project? (Project properties just has the option to convert between Console, Class library, Windows app!)
it is not an easy change through the project properties (alt+enter). you need to manually edit the .proj file in an editor ( say notepad / textpad)
when you compare a classlibrary project and a WPF Usercontrol library projects .proj file you will find the difference in them is through the nodes in the node.
you need to add ProjectTypeGuids , WarningLevel and TargetFrameworkProfile . it is my understanding, they started to dictate a project type through the PRojectTypeGuids node! which is really cool!
create a class library project and a WPF usercontrol library project and open the .proj files in an editor to compare, you should be able to figure out what i am talking here!
