Hi,
I want to display a child window that contains a combobox with several values coming from one of the child window's property:
public partial class MyChildWindow : ChildWindow
{
private ObservableCollection<MyClass> _collectionToBind = // initialize and add items to collection to make sure it s not empty...
public ObservableCollection<MyClass> CollectionToBind
{
get { return _collectionToBind; }
set { _collectionToBind = value; }
}
}
How do I bind in XAML my combobox to the ComboBoxContent
collection (both are in the same class)? I've tried several things such as:
<ComboBox x:Name="linkCombo" ItemsSource="{Binding Path=CollectionToBind }" DisplayMemberPath="Description">
I've only been able to bind it in the code behind file and would like to learn the XAML way to do it.
Thank you!
