Help:how to conver String to PathGeometry

Hi

In wpf,i can use PathFigureCollectionConverter to convert a string to PathGeometry:

convertor.ConvertFrom("M100.5,110L100.5,141L50.5,142L50.5,113z")

however,in silverlight,there is no such class,so how can i conver a string to a PathGeometry?

thanks!

I think you have to set the Data property in XAML only.

but i don't think the speed is quick

Yeah, I was just looking at the WPF code and was about to add that it wouldn't be that big of a deal to write a parser.
