Deploy Mesurement Studio WPF applications.

[regnig]

I am having trouble deploying a Measurements Studio 2013 WFP application developed using VS2012 on a Windows7_32 computer.  I am attempting to deploy to another WIndows7_32 computer.  I have tried deployment using both the WiX approach (following the example in National Instruments\MStudioVS2012\DotNET\Examples\Application\Deployment\WiX\All Libraries) and XCOPY deployment.  These deployment attempts have not been successful.

Using VS2012 Remote Debugging gives the error messages:

System.Windows.Markup.XamlParseException was unhandled
Message: An unhandled exception of type 'System.Windows.Markup.XamlParseException' occurred in PresentationFramework.dll
Additional information: The invocation of the constructor on type 'NationalInstruments.Controls.Switch' that matches the specified binding constraints threw an exception.

I have noticed that the Measurement Studio documentation contains a section entitled "Measurement Studio .NET XCOPY Deployment Files", but that section does not seem to address WPF applications.  Similarly the National Instruments\MStudioVS2012\DotNET\Examples\Application\Deployment\WiX\All Libraries example is a WinForms example, and not a WPF example. 

Does anyone have an example of a Measurement Studio 2013 WPF deployment solution, using either XCOPY or WiX?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Do you have WinForms (or any other MS2013) deployments working with WiX or XCopy? I suspect that a nested InnerException to your XamlParseException is a licensing error.

We're using VS2010, but we deploy both WinForms and WPF applications with Visual Studio Setup projects (.msi) and with ClickOnce deployments published to a local File share. I do not know exactly what those methods are doing to make the licensing work, but we have had licensing enforcement issues with xcopy-style deployments in the past.

Sorry I don't have better info, I hope that is of some help.
