MEF

I am developing an application currently using Prism and MEF.

I would ideally like to generate a toolbar or menu with an item for each module, and when an item is clicked, only the views declared within that module load into a tab control.

For example:

Menu Region: ModuleA(Selected) | ModuleB

Tab Region: ModuleAViewA | ModuleAViewB | ModuleAViewC

Changes to Menu Region: Employees | Inventory(selected)

Tab Region: Items | In Fi
