Platform Invoke (PInvoke) in Silverlight 5 - by @VikramPendse

Two days back Microsoft announced availability of Silverlight 5 RC,I encourage you to download bits from here, My friend Pete Brown already given very good information on Silverlight 5 RC here.

PInvoke (some type this as p/Invoke) that is Platform Invoke is most awaited feature in Silverlight since the announcement of Roadmap of Silverlight 5.

There are lot of talks in the community about Native HTML5 Apps using JavaScript,I am sure with this feature of PInvoke,Silverlight is now equally powerful player in App Development.

Why I kept above text in Bold? This is because there is lot of HTML5 talks around and sometime people unnecessarily without judging pulling Silverlight down for no good reason.For those who think we are Dead or we are just Animation technology..well by this feature you folks must have realize the potential of this Silverlight platform and where we are heading towards.
