  1. POWPF Data binding: How to data bind an enum to combo box using XAML?
    text
    copied!<p>I have a class: </p> <pre><code>public class AccountDetail { public DetailScope Scope { get { return scope; } set { scope = value; } } public string Value { get { return this.value; } set { this.value = value; } } private DetailScope scope; private string value; public AccountDetail(DetailScope scope, string value) { this.scope = scope; this.value = value; } } </code></pre> <p>and an enum: </p> <pre><code>public enum DetailScope { Private, Business, OtherDetail } </code></pre> <p>Lastly, I have a .xaml file:</p> <pre><code>&lt;Window x:Class="Gui.Wpf.Window1" xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation" xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml" Title="Test" SizeToContent="WidthAndHeight"&gt; &lt;Grid&gt; &lt;ComboBox Name="ScopeComboBox" Width="120" Height="23" Margin="12" /&gt; &lt;/Grid&gt; &lt;/Window&gt; </code></pre> <p>I would like to do two things: </p> <ol> <li>I wish to data bind <code>DetailsScope</code> enum values to the combo box values. I don't wish to bind enum values directly because the last enum value would be <code>OtherDetail</code> instead of <code>Other detail</code> (added a space character and small letter 'd'). </li> <li>I wish to data bind the selected value in the combo box to the one specified in the instance of the <code>AccountDetail</code> object. </li> </ol> <p>Could you help me out? Thanks. </p> <p>Update: I found this post <a href="http://blogs.msdn.com/b/wpfsdk/archive/2007/02/22/displaying-enum-values-using-data-binding.aspx" rel="noreferrer">http://blogs.msdn.com/b/wpfsdk/archive/2007/02/22/displaying-enum-values-using-data-binding.aspx</a>. I need something similar. </p>
