I would like to open MXD with ArcGIS Runtime WPF. There is no example about this. Anybody has a solution ?

Thank you

Thank you..... You will need to publish the MXD to ArcGIS Server, and then use the REST service this creates to display the map. You cannot load an MXD directly. – Julien Feb 6 at 13:29

Using ArcGIS Server and consuming a map service is one way. Or you can turn a Map (MXD) into a Map Package and consume this in the Runtime. You'll probably want to choose your solution based off 2 things: 1) will your app have internet access? 2) if you have internet, will you have an ArcGIS Server to host services. If the answer to either of those questions is NO, you'll probably need to go the Local MPK way.

The app will have no internet access. So, is it possible to create a MPK with ArcGis Server ? and to save a Map in WPF Runtime ? – Julien Feb 7 at 13:12

ArcGIS Server has geoprocessing, so you can either create a geoprocessing service, or simply use Server's Python to call tools. So yeah, ArcGIS Server "can create an mpk".. (via the Map Package tool) – KHibma Feb 11 at 17:20
