Overview

Prism provides guidance designed to help you more easily design and build rich, flexible, and easy-to-maintain Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF) desktop applications, Silverlight Rich Internet Applications (RIAs), and Windows Phone 7 applications. Using design patterns that embody important architectural design principles, such as separation of concerns and loose coupling, Prism helps you to design and build applications using loosely coupled components that can evolve independently but that can be easily and seamlessly integrated into the overall application. These types of applications are known as composite applications.

Prism includes reference implementations, QuickStarts, reusable library code (the Prism Library), and extensive documentation. This version of Prism targets the Microsoft .NET Framework 4.0 and Silverlight 4 and includes new guidance around the Model-View-ViewModel (MVVM) pattern, navigation, and the Managed Extensibility Framework (MEF). Because Prism is built on the .NET Framework 4.0 (which includes WPF) and Silverlight 4, familiarity with these technologies is useful for evaluating and adopting Prism.

Prerequisites

  • Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 Professional, Premium, or Ultimate edition
  • Microsoft .NET Framework 4.0 (installed with Visual Studio 2010)
  • Silverlight Tools for Visual Studio 2010 (required for Silverlight development; includes the developer Silverlight runtime)
  • Optional tools:
    • Expression Blend 4
    • Windows Phone Developer Tools SDK (for development with the Windows Phone 7)

It seems that 4.1 release still has references to SL 4 libraries, which causes the following errors in Code Analysis: The indirectly-referenced Silverlight assembly 'mscorlib, Version=2.0.5.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=7cec85d7bea7798e' could not be found(...) This assembly was referenced by: (...)Microsoft.Practices.Prism.dll.

Would love to see Microsoft's Lightswitch improved using this technology (Prism). It really would benefit from the end-user application being more modular, so that it would be more scalable.

BEST MVVM Library for both mini and enterprise apps! Should be integrated in the BCL and should have project and item templates in the IDE (just like ASP.NET MVC Model-View-Controller generation - there should be a similar feature in MVVM).
