In System.Windows.Forms.Button there is a property DialogResult, where is this property in the System.Windows.Controls.Button (WPF)?
There is no built-in Button.DialogResult, but you can create your own (if you like) using a simple attached property:
public class ButtonHelper
{
// Boilerplate code to register attached property "bool? DialogResult"
public static bool? GetDialogResult(DependencyObject obj) { return (bool?)obj.GetValue(DialogResultProperty); }
public static void SetDialogResult(DependencyObject obj, bool? value) { obj.SetValue(DialogResultProperty, value); }
public static readonly DependencyProperty DialogResultProperty = DependencyProperty.RegisterAttached("DialogResult", typeof(bool?), typeof(ButtonHelper), new UIPropertyMetadata
{
PropertyChangedCallback = (obj, e) =>
{
// Implementation of DialogResult functionality
Button button = obj as Button;
if(button==null)
throw new InvalidOperationException(
"Can only use ButtonHelper.DialogResult on a Button control");
button.Click += (sender, e2) =>
{
Window.GetWindow(button).DialogResult = GetDialogResult(button);
};
}
});
}
This will allow you to write:
<Button Content="Click Me" my:ButtonHelper.DialogResult="True" />
and get behavior equivalent to WinForms (clicking on the button causes the dialog to close and return the specified result)
