WPF UserControl in a Forms.UserControl

I've managed to add a WPF button to a Forms.UserControl in code and am now
trying to add a WPF UserControl (defined in XAML) onto a Forms.UserControl.

I've started with Add->New Item...->WinFX User Control which adds
TestPage.xaml and TestPage.xaml.cs to the project. I've added some XAML
inside <UserControl.FixedTemplate> (works in XAMLPad) but when I compile I
get 'Error 2 The name 'InitializeComponent' does not exist in the current
context'. I've looked at one of the SDK samples and it seems TestPage.g.cs
should be generated but isn't.

What have I missed? Is it ok to mix WPF and Forms classes in the same DLL
or do I need to put all WPF Controls into a separate assembly?

Thanks
Michael

Have you told VS how to compile .xaml files? You do that by adding a line
to your project file, described on
