Can XamlReader load xaml that contains types defined in external assemblies?

Viewed 5356

The XamlReader is loading Xaml using types defined within the local assembly and the WPF assemblies without any problems.

If I include types defined within external assemblies then a XamlParseException with the following message is thrown.

Cannot create unknown type '{clr-namespace:Telerik.Windows.Controls;assembly=Telerik.Windows.Controls.Charting}SeriesMapping'.' Line number '13' and line position '18'.

Is it possible to load types from external assemblies using this technique?
