WPF Win32 Interop Render Control v0.16 alpha released



OK I've released the latest version onto the CodePlex:
http://www.codeplex.com/WPFWin32Renderer

As you can see there's a better example app (still no edit box for changing the web url, sorry). However it's working a lot better, but still a long way to go.

Finally... The WPF Win32 Interop Hoster Control source code is available




The WPF Win32 hosting holy graile is taking shape. Yes you heard me, you can host a Win32 Control, interact with it inside a WPF viewport and perform all of the sweet effects on it. Your CPU might hate you for that, but the performance actually isn't too bad,....however I vow to make it better.

The source you ask?

OK, I've released the code finally.

Thanks, like, tons to Jeremiah Morrill for *all* his help :-)
