Is it possible to create a Mono bundle that includes WPF libraries?

Question

I know WPF libraries aren´t implemented by mono class library, however(as far as I know) the mono 2.6 runtime is fully compatible with the .NET 2.0/3.5 runtime, so if the WPF libraries only make PInvoke calls to windows api it is theoretically possible to run a wpf application on windows using the mono runtime. The reason for wanting that is deploying a wpf application as a standalone executable for windows. Has anyone tried something like that before? If so, what were the results?

Answer 1

In short... No

At this point, the Mono project does not have plans to implement Windows Presentation Foundation APIs as part of the project

Mono will provide Moonlight support which, from what I understand, would also use a subset of XAML to create its UI (the same as Silverlight does) but there are legal complications involved. Such as, it's limited to non-microsoft and non-mac platforms.

If you want to find a list of open-source cross-platform alternatives to WPF/XAML I'm working to compile a list of viable alternatives.
