Binding to an explicitly implemented generic interface in Silverlight


I understand it's possible to bind to an explictily implemented property using something like this:

"{Binding Path=(local:ISomeInterface.SomeProperty)}" 

but what if the interface is generic?

"{Binding Path=(local:ISomeInterface<TypeParama>.SomeProperty)}"  ???

What is the magic syntax?


Solution

  • I don't know the syntax for binding to a generic interface but, if you need a quick work around, you could simply encapsulate your property, i.e.:

    public int SomePropertyYouCanBindTo
        {
        get
            {
            return (this as ISomeInterface<TypeParameter>).SomeProperty;
    ..... etc
