 Hi,

I am upgrading my Silverlight 1.1 application to Silverlight 2.0. For that I need classes from System.IO.Packaging.
Can anybody tell what is substitute for System.IO.Packaging in Silverlight 2.0.

Thanks,
Krantisinh

Sorry, but can you provide some information on why you need the Packaging? Are you zipping things up on the client? You'll probably need to do the packaging on the server which would have access to this namespace.

 Sorry there is no direct replacement for the packing class.  There are some third party zip libraries from component one, and xceed.  There is a silverlight version of the sharpziplib on codeplex. I am not sure how well it works

I can endorse this library.  Works very well for me.

I browse sharpziplib, but i didn't got required methods.
Is there any other library, which can help me?
