Viewer template doesn't work with Silverlight API 3.0

EdwardSon — Fri, 06 Jul 2012 04:22:11 GMT

Uninstalled Silverlight API 2.4 and installed new 3.0.
Application created with the ESRI Viewer template doesn't work.
The viewer fails to initialize.

Is there something else that needs to be installed?
Also prior viewer template application created with 2.4, when changing all of the references to the 3.0 dll's doesn't seem to start either.
What is the proper way to upgrade to silverlight 3.0 and use the Viewer template...

Hi Edward,

What is the proper way to upgrade to silverlight 3.0 and use the Viewer template...

FYI, the ArcGIS Viewer for Silverlight is built and compiled on the v2.4 release of the ArcGIS API for Silverlight. It currently does not work with the v3.0 Silverlight API release. We are planning an update for the Silverlight Viewer based on the v3.0 Silverlight API in the 3rd quarter of 2012.

Hope this helps,

FYI, it does appear that the Viewer template will work as expected if you manually remove the 3.0 references from the Visual Studio AddIns project and re-add the corresponding 2.4 dlls even with the 3.0 dlls on the machine.
Just wanted to confirm.
