ArcObjects is not supported by Silverlight.
If you need to execute some ArcObjects code, you will need to create a custom webservice on the server and call that.

Hi Morten,

Has this changed in VS 2012 and Arc 10.2 or do I still need to create a custom web service?

Thanks,

I'm sure this hasn't changed.  ArcObjects is an a huge API compiled for development using full blown .NET and it wouldn't be practical to port to Silverlight.
