Due to a configuration error when shipping the first versions of Visual Basic 2008, when you create a new WPF project the result contains a bug. The template project tries to return a System.Windows.Application object from a function that should return a WpfApplication1.Application object. The error is:
Option Strict On disallows implicit conversions from 'System.Windows.Application' to 'WpfApplication1.Application'.
The error occurs in the Return statement in this code:
|
|
<Global.System.Diagnostics.CodeAnalysis.SuppressMessageAttribute("Microsoft.Performance", _
"CA1811:AvoidUncalledPrivateCode")> _
Friend ReadOnly Property Application() As Application
Get
Return Global.System.Windows.Application.Current
End Get
End Property

To fix the problem, hover over the red box to get the Error Correction Options dropdown. Accept the error correction suggestion to get this fix:
Return CType(Global.System.Windows.Application.Current, _
WpfApplication1.Application)
This error should be fixed in the first service packs and later releases of Visual Basic 2008.
