Hi,
I was trying to use a xamcombobox in my xamdatagrid and I have some questions.
1) Is it possible to bind the column to an Object, insted of a value?
Supposing I have a Employee class and a Department class (an Employee has a reference to a Department instance):
public class Employee {pivate int id;public int ID{get{return id;}set{id=value;}
private String name;
public String Name{get { return name; }set { name = value; }}
private Department dep;
public String AssignedDepartment{get{return dep;}set{dep=value;}
}
public class Department{private int id;public int ID{get{return id;}set{id=value}}
public String Name{get { return name; }set { name = value; }}}
What I want is having a datagrid displaying Employees, and a column with the AssignedDepartment and a combobox that permits to change it.I can display the combobox but I can't display or set the selected value on the grid.
Is this possible? Or the combobox works only with standard data types (such an integer ID) ? How should I proceed?
Thanks a lot.
Hello,
It has been a while since you have made your post, in case you still need support I will be glad to assist you further. I suppose the other community members can benefit from this answer as well. So I have been looking through your post and I created a sample project for you in which I used your classes to create data and bind it to a XamDataGrid with a Field using a XamComboEditor.
Feel free to write me if you have further questions.
