Porting a silverlight application to iPad

Does silverlight开发者_StackOverflow applications run on iPad. If not, what is the nearest equivalent that can be used with iPad to which porting of an existing silverlight application can be done.

You can't port your silverlight views to the ipad or iphone, but you may be able to port your c# view models and backend code to run on monotouch (the .Net runtime for iPhoneOS).

That said, I'd wait for Xamarin to release thier replacement to Monotouch first.

There is a small/medium chance that Xamarin will support xaml views (silverlight 4.0) on iphoneOS at some point in the future.
