Thread: ArcGIS Viewer for Silverlight 1.0 final now available!!!

FYI,

ArcGIS Viewer for Silverlight 1.0 final is now available from the Resource Center.

Enjoy,

Hi Ryan,

Can you give it another try now?

Katy

@Iain: As far as we know, you should be able to download the ArcGIS Viewer for Silverlight software without issue. I just tested it now and it works. Can you please try again?

@Blair: We pulled the download for the Extensibility SDK to make a minor correction to the download package. It should be available sometime tomorrow. Sorry for the delay.

Hope this helps,

Hi Michal,

Is there a localization kit we can use to localize the viewer?

We will be releasing localized versions of the ArcGIS Viewer for Silverlight in the forthcoming weeks.
We plan on supporting: Arabic, Chinese, French, German, Italian, Japanese, Portuguese (Brazilian), Russian, and Spanish.

Hope this helps,

Hi Ryan,

I think you saw my answer in the beta forum, but I'm reposting here for others:

The ArcGIS Viewer for Silverlight 1.0 Final release is based on the ArcGIS API for Silverlight v2.4. See our Silverlight/WPF blog for a bit more info on the updates made for v2.4.

Katy

PS - We encourage everyone to begin using this forum over the beta community forum, as the beta community forum will be closed down in the near future.

No problem at all. It'll take a bit of time to transfer everyone over to this forum instead. :-)

We'll be posting the Extensibility SDK soon.

Katy

All,

FYI, the ArcGIS Extensibility SDK for Silverlight is now available.

Thanks for your patience,

@Michal,

We need to localize the viewer as well as the sharepoint mapping api to Hebrew...

Supporting Hebrew localization is not part of the Silverlight Viewer 1.0 release, nor the ArcGIS for SharePoint 2.1 release. Sorry. We hope to support it in a future release.


@Scott,

Will I need to build all my sites again, or is there process for upgrading to the final release from beta that does not lose the sites that were built in the beta version?

Unfortunately, there is no migration process for sites built on the Silverlight Viewer beta to final release. You will have to recreate your sites in the final release.

Hope this helps,

Hi Zachary,

Does the viewer support the ability to access secure ArcGIS Server Services?

Yes. Please see this help topic: Adding secured services

Specifically avoiding a proxy page and having the client provide specific credentials?

No. The recommended pattern is a proxy page as this is a more secure path.

Hope this helps,

Hi Zachary:

I'm assuming you mean that you want Application Builder to publish Viewer apps using a FQDN. All you need to do to get this working is update the AppsBaseUrl in Builder's web.config with the desired URL.

I discovered that area in the config file and have already done this and each time the software reverts it back to the machine name with port 80.

PS, since i've not heard back from anyone at support in the last few days perhaps you could take a look through the open incident? It's promising to be actually talking to a Silverlight product engineer!

I'm not sure what you mean by this. When is this value changed by the software? I'm not aware of any time this setting is touched other than installation.

If you need to change the URL of apps that were deployed prior to updating Builder's web.config, that would require editing the Sites.xml file (in Builder\App_Data). The web.config setting determines the base URL for newly deployed apps.

Hope that helps.

Jian,

The template is only available once you've installed the ArcGIS Extensibility SDK for Silverlight. Did you get this installed successfully?
