为MvvmCross插件实施缺少的平台

Question

I want to use an MvvmCross plugin in my project, however one of my platforms is Wpf. Unfortunately there's no Wpf implementation ( https://github.com/brianchance/MvvmCross-UserInteraction ).

What is the proper way of adding WPF platform implementation to my project?

More specifically, my questions are:

• In the implementation I need to use UI controls and components to display message boxes, thus should it be "WPF Custom Control Library" or can I use just standard "Class library"?
• Do I have to add Nuget packages Mvvm.CrossCore and Mvvm UserInteractionPlugin to my WPF implementation library?

Ideally I'd like to create and test WPF implementation in my own project and then contribute it to plugin repo on github.

The simplest would be to clone the original repo. Then add a new Class Library project for your WPF implementation.

If you look at the existing Windows Store project, it simply adds a project reference to the UserInteraction (PCL) project.

Create a UserInteraction class that implements IUserInteraction . Add your WPF implementation there.

Include the Plugin class so it will auto-register in MvvmCross.

You can then modify the existing .nuspec file to add entries for your WPF assemblies.

This is pretty much how all MvvmCross plugins work.
