Hi all first post here :) Let's start with a snippet of the code I'm using:
public MyClass : INotifyPropertyChanged
{
private static MyClass _instance;
public static MyClass Instance
{
get
{
if (_instance == null)
_instance = new MyClass();
return _instance;
}
}
private bool _myProperty;
public bool MyProperty
{
get
{
return _myProperty;
}
set
{
if (_myProperty!= value)
{
_myProperty= value;
NotifyPropertyChanged("MyProperty");
}
}
}
private MyClass() { ... }
}
As you can see, it's a singleton class. In my view, I want to bind a control on MyProperty. My initial idea was to import MyClass as a static ressource in my view using something like:
<UserControl x:Class="Metrics.Silverlight.ChartView"
xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
xmlns:logic="clr-namespace:Metrics.Logic;assembly=Metrics.Logic">
<UserControl.Resources>
<logic:MyClass x:Key="myClass" />
</UserControl.Resources>
</UserControl>
And bind it like so:
<Button Margin="5" Click="btnName_Click" Visibility="{Binding Source={StaticResource myClass}, Converter={StaticResource visibilityConverter}, Path=MyAttribute, Mode=OneWay}">
Of course, this approach won't work since MyClass constructor's is private. I also cannot use x:static since it's not available in Silverlight 4.
I've been stuck on this problem far longer than I should have... How can I bind on MyProperty?
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance!
