Will stock WPF get a menustrip control?

My "metric" for when WPF is truly "ready to go" is when there is a menustrip control available in Visual Studio. Without that, from my perspective, it's still "under construction" a bit, in comparision to winforms. This isn't a technical argument, just a personal preference.

So my question is: when will stock Visual Studio come with a WPF menustrip control? For example, is this going to be in the final release of Visual Studio 2010?

Solution

  • Never. You have a bad metric. :)

    When combined with a single layout panel in WPF, Menu can do everything MenuStrip does and more.
