Downloads

Download the Silverlight 1.0 Class Diagram as PDF, XPS or XAML. You will need to save the XAML version to disk and view in XamlPad since the file contains BitmapEffects which can't be displayed from the Internet zone in the browser.

The Class Diagram paper size is "ANSI E" (1118mm x 864mm / 44" x 34") which loosely matches the ISO "A0" size.

Community Resources

Discuss how to work with the Yahoo! Web Services and other APIs with Silverlight on the ydn-silverlight mailing list. Please note that this is not a general Silverlight programming questions list; try to keep your questions focused to discussions about the Yahoo! APIs.

We also provide individual lists for each of the web services and APIs we support; your questions are always welcome there as well. See the Yahoo! Developer Network Community page for more information on these mailing lists.
