Why is multibinding supported in WPF, but not silverlight?

Question

Multibinding is a pretty powerful feature in WPF, why is it not supported in silverlight? They never got around to adding support to it? It's too big to fit in the .NET framework? Will it be coming in Silverlight 5? Anyone know the answers?

Thanks!

ASP.NET tag has nothing to do with your question. – Gristly

Answer 1

It's not supported out of the box, but you can throw together an approximation that will maybe do what you want: look here and here

Microsoft has a good page on what's coming up in Silverlight but no mention of multibinding.

Thanks, I have read each of those links. I hope Microsoft decides to incorporate that code in SL5, even though there is not mention of it, as you say. – Colonel
