WPF Prism and Ribbon samples/tutorials

Question

I'm looking for a WPF prism with ribbon application samples and tutorials. I have found many that cover prism or ribbon but only a few sources provide any information about implementating those two together in one application. No course code usually in available tough. An example with a few simple modules and a classical ribbon tab control would be perfect for me to start.

Thanks for any help.

Regards, Enzo.

Edit: I should add that by combining the two I want to be able to load different modules depending on the ribbon tab selected by user.

Answer 1

You can find some info on a customized region adapter for the WPF Ribbon Preview here.

Regarding the loading of modules on demand in Prism, here is another link to MSDN, covering the topic.

Answer 2

David Veeneman wrote a nice article about Ribbon & Prism on CodeProject http://www.codeproject.com/KB/WPF/ViewSwitchingAppsPrism4.aspx

It includes RegionAdapter for Ribbon .

Answer 3

There is "Southridge Hands-On Labs" on Codeplex (download on WPF futures page). It is quite extensive, but documentation and source code are not in sync (it looks they updated labs source, but not accompanying documentation), so it can be a pain sometimes to get what is going on.

It is based on Microsoft's WPF Ribbon Preview library.

Edit:
I am not aware about any tutorial that covers both. You can check series of videos on Prism and Silverlight by Mike Taulty. There is also source code for application made in last video.
Then you can combine knowledge from Southridge labs and this Prism tutorial.

I ran into a similar problem this weekend and after much reading and searching came up with this code that I posted for review
