title: Creating an instance of a nested class in XAML
body: <p>in a <strong>XAML</strong> file (a WPF UserControl), is there a way to reference an <strong>inner class</strong> "B" defined in another class "A" ?</p>
  
  <pre><code>public class A
  {
      public class B
      {
      }
  }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Something like :</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;local:A.B ... /&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>This syntax does not work because "B" is interpreted as a property named "B" in class "A".</p>
  
  <p>I've tried more exotic syntaxes like "::" or "+" but none seems to work.</p>
  
  <p>I'm currently using <strong>Silverlight 4</strong> with <strong>VS2010</strong>.</p>
  
  <p>Thanks in advance for your help.</p>
