And one more update of the popular support topic, but quite advanced, though. Anyway, here we go:

[C#]
using System;
using BusinessLogic;
using System.Windows.Forms;
using DevExpress.ExpressApp;
using MyWinApplicationLibrary;
using System.Configuration;
using DevExpress.ExpressApp.Win;

namespace WindowsApplication1 {
    public partial class Form1 : Form {
        WinSolutionWindowsFormsApplication theXafApplication = null;
        public Form1() {
            InitializeComponent();
            //Dennis: NOTE: this basic XafApplication initialization is for demo purposes only.
            //It may be insufficient for all standard XAF scenarios and features like security, validation, Application Model, etc.
            //Refer to the https://www.devexpress.com/kb=Q94961 article to learn more.
            theXafApplication = new WinSolutionWindowsFormsApplication();
            theXafApplication.SplashScreen = null;
            theXafApplication.ShowViewStrategy = new ShowInMultipleWindowsStrategy(theXafApplication);
            //theXafApplication.ConnectionString = ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["XpoConnectionStringFromAppConfig"].ConnectionString;
            theXafApplication.ConnectionString = DevExpress.ExpressApp.Xpo.InMemoryDataStoreProvider.ConnectionString;//Dennis: For demo purposes only.
            theXafApplication.Setup();
        }
        private void simpleButton1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e) {
            IObjectSpace objectSpace = theXafApplication.CreateObjectSpace();
            ShowViewParameters svp = new ShowViewParameters();
            svp.CreatedView = theXafApplication.CreateListView(objectSpace, typeof(DomainObject1), true);
            svp.TargetWindow = TargetWindow.NewWindow;
            theXafApplication.ShowViewStrategy.ShowView(svp, new ShowViewSource(theXafApplication.CreateFrame(TemplateContext.View), null));
        }
    }
}
