Microsoft codename "Acropolis"

Microsoft codename "Acropolis"

Microsoft Codename Acropolis, available as a CTP release, is a set of tools and components that can be used to build .NET Smart Client applications. It includes a composite application framework that lets applications be built using a composition of reconfigurable components. On October 29, 2007, the Acropolis team announced that Acropolis will not be released as a standalone product nor will there be any newer CTP releases. Many of the Acropolis concepts would go into future versions of the .NET Framework and Silverlight. [1]

Overview

Acropolis components are classified into two types: Parts and Services. Parts are the main building blocks, and they encapsulate certain functionalities in a self-contained unit for reusability. Parts expose the UI component via Part Views. A Part that implements a specific scenario is called a Form. Forms can be nested for complex scenarios. A component that provides application-wide functionality to Parts is called a Service. Components communicate among each other through Connection Points.

Acropolis components needs to be hosted in a parent application, called a shell. The shell hosts the Acropolis runtime, which manages the lifetime and communication between the components.
