WPF used within a WinForms application, where to put Application resources?

Question

At present we host a number of WPF controls in a WinForms application. The application is started using the System.Windows.Forms.Application.Run(...)

Answer 1

If you host WPF controls within a WinForms application you do not have the Applicationobject which hosts the application-wide resources. The trick is to create such a object, load your global resources and merge them into the ResourceDictionary.

Here is an example of this code:
