WPF Databinding problem
- by costin
Hi, I'm new to WPF and I have some difficulties when I'm trying to populate a ListView with a list of custom objects.
internal class ApplicationCode
{
public int Code { get; set; }
public IEnumerable<string> InstrumentCodes { get; set; }
}
I have a list of ApplicationCode which I set to ItemsSource to a ListView. I need to display the ApplicationCode.Code as a string and for the rest of the columns a check box which can be checked/unchecked depending if the column name is contained in the InstrumentCodes collection.
In order to set the check box I use a converter on databinding:
<DataTemplate x:Key="InstrumentCodeTemplate">
<CheckBox IsEnabled="False" IsChecked="{Binding Mode=OneTime, Converter={StaticResource InstrumentSelectionConverter}}" />
</DataTemplate>
The problem I have is because I can't know which is the current column at the time of cell data binding and I can't set the ConverterParameter.
public object Convert(object value, Type targetType, object parameter, CultureInfo culture)
{
ApplicationCode appCode = value as ApplicationCode;
return appCode != null && appCode.InstrumentCodes.Contains(parameter.ToString());
}
There is a way to find out the column index or name? Or there is another way to solve this problem?
