Convert from string to data in silverlight?

Question

Basically I\'m trying to do this:

Path path = new Path( ); 

string sData = \"M 250,40 L200,20 L200,60 Z\";

var converter = TypeDescriptor.GetConverter( typ         


        

Answer 1

Try this:-

  Path path = XamlReader.Load("") as Path;

Edit

Should have been:

  public static GeneratePath(string data)
  {
      string pathEnvelope = "")
      return XamlReader.Load(String.Format(pathEnvelope, data)) as Path;
  }

Usage:-

  string data = "M 250,40 L200,20 L200,60";

  Path path = GeneratePath(data);
