Using Caliburn Micro in class library

I have a class library which contains several user controls. This library uses caliburn micro to bind the UserControls to their corresponding ViewModels using x:Name approach in the same class library.

Now I have an host application which hosts these UserControls in a Window. But this host application doesn’t use Caliburn Micro at all. Then how can I initialize caliburn bootstrapper in the library itself.

HostApplication:

<Window>       
  <ContentControl>
       <library:MainUserControl DataContext="{Binding MainUserControlViewModel}"/>
  </ContentControl>
</Window>

Class Library

<UserControl x:Class="MainUserControl">
       <ContentControl x:Name="OtherUserControlInSameLibrary"/>
</UserControl>

I tried to inherit Bootstrapper base class like AppBootstrapper: Bootstrapperbase and passing false to constructor parameter useApplication. And then I called Initialize() method. But still conventions are not applied.

MainUserControlViewModel Constructor

public MainUserControlViewModel()
{             
     AppBootstrapper appBootstrapper = new AppBootstrapper();
     appBootstrapper.Initialize();
     if (Debugger.IsAttached)
            LogManager.GetLog = type => new DebugLog(type);            
}

BootstrapperBase override

 public class AppBootstrapper : BootstrapperBase
    {
        public AppBootstrapper():base(false)
        {
        }
    }

I also tried to run caliburn debugger but nothing is showed in my output window.

hello ， Is Resolved your question ？Using Caliburn Micro in class library

I’m as well in pursuit of building a class library using CM. In my case I build Revit add-ins which is loaded from a dll. Is it at all possible? I can use some parts of CM, but others like ActivateItem does not work out of the box.
