XamarinFormsXamlVB

Provides Xamarin.Forms Xaml support for Visual Basic.

Our target is allow you to write cross-platform app with Xamarin.Forms, Visual Basic and Xaml.

The only truly useful file in this project is a T4 template which generates a VB source file that equivalent to *.xaml.g.vb files.

The custom tool which is named "MSBuild:UpdateDesignTimeXaml" is unable to generate .xaml.g.vb and .xaml.g.i.vb files. It blocks the way we use Xamarin.Forms with Xaml in Visual Basic .NET Standard class libraries. That's why I'm working on a T4 template that generates those missing codes.

How to Use it

  • Clone this repository.
  • Open it with Visual Studio (>= 15.5.2).
  • Create a project template from XamlVBCodeBehindGeneratorTest.vbproj.
  • File -> New Project -> C# -> Cross-platform -> Cross platform App -> Select .NET Standard instead of Shared Project -> Create
  • Copy the name of the C# .NET Standard project and exclude the project from solution.
  • Move the excluded project to another directory.
  • Create a new VB project with the template you have just created.
  • For each platform specific projects, add reference to the VB project.
  • Run all T4 templates when you have modified .xaml files.

Dependencies

  • Microsoft Visual Studio (>= 15.5.2)
  • Xamarin workload and cross platform development workload in Visual Studio
  • Windows 10 (>= 10.0.16299.0)

Known Issues

  • Named controls' backing fields are renamed in order to workaround XamlC limitations. For example, "BtnOk" is renamed to "BtnOkWithEvents".
  • Custom xmlns with "http" uri is not supported. Use "using" or "clr-namespace" instead.

  • We welcome feedback. Please post Issues to tell us where or how can we improve.

简介

支持 Visual Basic 在 Xamarin.Forms 用 Xaml。

我们的目标是让您同时使用 Xamarin.Forms, Visual Basic 和 Xaml 开发跨平台应用。

这个项目真正有用的文件是 一个生成与 .xaml.g.vb 等效代码文件的 T4 模板.

名为 "MSBuild:UpdateDesignTimeXaml" 的自定义工具不能生成 .xaml.g.vb 和 .xaml.g.i.vb 文件。 这会阻碍我们在 Visual Basic .NET Standard 类库使用 Xamarin.Forms 的 Xaml 。 这就是为什么我在写一个 T4 代码生成器产生那些缺失的文件。

怎么用

  • 克隆这个仓库
  • 用 Visual Studio (>= 15.5.2) 打开
  • 从 XamlVBCodeBehindGeneratorTest.vbproj 创建项目模板
  • 文件 -> 新建工程 -> C# -> Cross-platform -> Cross platform App -> 选择 .NET Standard 而不是 Shared Project -> Create
  • 复制那个 C# .NET Standard 项目的名称,将它排除在解决方案外,然后把它挪走
  • 创建一个同名的 VB .NET Standard 项目
  • 每个平台特定的项目要引用那个 VB 项目
  • 修改 .xaml 文件后要运行 T4 模板

依赖项

  • Microsoft Visual Studio (>= 15.5.2)
  • Visual Studio 的 Xamarin 和 跨平台开发工作负载
  • Windows 10 (>= 10.0.16299.0)

已知问题

  • 已命名的控件经过重命名,以解决 XamlC 的限制。例如 "BtnOk" 重命名为 "BtnOkWithEvents"。
  • 自定义使用 http Uri 的 xmlns 不受支持。使用 using 或者 clr-namespace 代替。
