  1. POBinding a simple business class to a WPF UserControl
    text
    copied!<p>I did quite a bit of WPF a couple of years ago but seem to have forgotten everything.</p> <p>Suppose I have a simple business class, say a TFS workitem.</p> <pre><code>public class WorkItem { public WorkItem(string name, DateTime date) { Name = name; Date = date; } public string Name { get; set; } public DateTime Date { get; set; } } </code></pre> <p>Then I have a list of WorkItems, perhaps something like this.</p> <pre><code>class WiList : ObservableCollection&lt;WorkItem&gt; { public WiList () : base() { Add(new WorkItem("1", DateTime.Now)); Add(new WorkItem("2", DateTime.Now)); } } </code></pre> <p>Then I have a UserControl that represents a WorkItem, something like this.</p> <pre><code>&lt;UserControl xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation" xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml" xmlns:d="http://schemas.microsoft.com/expression/blend/2008" xmlns:mc="http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/markup-compatibility/2006" mc:Ignorable="d" x:Class="WrapPanelItemsControlTest.WorkItemControl" x:Name="UserControl" d:DesignWidth="640" d:DesignHeight="480" HorizontalAlignment="Left" VerticalAlignment="Top" Width="72" Height="40"&gt; &lt;StackPanel x:Name="LayoutRoot"&gt; &lt;TextBlock x:Name="Name"/&gt; &lt;TextBlock x:Name="Date"/&gt; &lt;/StackPanel&gt; </code></pre> <p></p> <p>The main window contains a WrapPanel to hold the UserControls. My question is, how do I create a WrapPanel that binds to the WiList and displays the WorkItems? I remember doing something like this before, but for the death of me I can't remember how (probably something from Bea Costa's blog). Of course I can't find my old test code anywhere and seem to be expectionally bad at googling for examples.</p> <p>Any help is appreaciated.</p>
