Binding objects defined in code-behind

Question

I have some object that is instantiated in code behind, for instance, the XAML is called window.xaml and within the window.xaml.cs

protected Dictionary

        

Answer 1

In your code behind, set the window's DataContext to the dictionary. In your XAML, you can write:

This will bind the ListView to the dictionary.

For more complex scenarios, this would be a subset of techniques behind the MVVM pattern.
