Custom Controls in SL2

The Dutch Microsoft .NET magazine #22 (September 2008) contains an article I have written about developing custom controls in Silverlight 2. It describes the use of the Parts & States model and provides an in-depth explanation of the Visual State Manager. The implementation details are demonstrated using a custom TrafficLight control. You can download the complete source of the control here.

The article is available online in PDF format on download.microsoft.com. Please note that the article is in Dutch, the comments in the TrafficLight control sources are in English. The complete .NET magazine #22 is available online here.
