7. Out-Of-Browser (enhance) and accessing users' local files

Out-Of-Browser seems to be introduced by SL3, but in the 4 has been improved, specific here: http://blogs.microsoft.co.il/blogs/alex_golesh/archive/2010/03/15/silverlight-4-quick-tip-out-of-browser-improvements.aspx

For access to local files, see here: http://weblogs.asp.net/nmarun/archive/2009/11/27/local-file-access-silverlight-4.aspx

 

8, COM

Flash does not seem to be able to access COM objects (I don't know much about FLASH). Well, Silverlight 4 does. Use ComAutomationFactory,

Here is a DEMO to see how to access OutLook

 

9. Prompt window(Bubble). It is a prompt box like the new Outlook email reminder.

This is not supported in the past. It is incredible (this is a Defect, or a New Feature ?)

14, RTL

It's not an advanced concept, that is, Right-To-Left text display.

We all know the WPF data verification feature, well, SL4 also has: http://johnpapa.net/silverlight/enabling-validation-in-silverlight-4-with-idataerrorinfo/

 

18. DependencyObject-level data binding

Legend has it that only the FrameworkElement level is supported (strange)

 

19. Supported by MEF (Managed Extensibility Framework)
