Bind to a collection's view and just call ToString()
- by womp
I'm binding a GridView to a collection of objects that look like this:
public class Transaction
{
public string PersonName { get; set; }
public DateTime TransactionDate { get; set; }
public MoneyCollection TransactedMoney { get; set;}
}
MoneyCollection simply inherits from ObservableCollection<T>, and is a collection of MyMoney type object.
In my GridView, I just want to bind a column to the MoneyCollection's ToString() method. However, binding it directly to the TransactedMoney property makes every entry display the text "(Collection)", and the ToString() method is never called.
I understand that it is binding to the collection's default view. So my question is - how can I make it bind to the collection in such a way that it calls the ToString() method on it?
This is my first WPF project, so I know this might be a bit noobish, but pointers would be very welcome.
