WPF Databinding

Question

Can anyone point me to a good resource (or throw me a clue) to show me how to do DataBinding to controls (ComboBox, ListBox, etc.) in WPF? I\'m at a bit of a loss when all

Answer 1

in code behind -- set the DataContext of your list box equal to the collection you're binding to.

private void OnInit(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
  //myDataSet is some IEnumerable 

  // myListBox is a ListBox control.
  // Set the DataContext of the ListBox to myDataSet
  myListBox.DataContext = myDataSet;
}

In XAML, Listbox can declare which properties it binds to using the "Binding" syntax.
