I have a very small collection of ints that I am displaying in a custom ItemsControl
. I'm not worried about performance since the collection is so small. I would like the items to be displayed in ascending order and can't figure out the best way to do so. I have successfully used a CollectionViewSource
with a SortDescription
to sort more complex objects, but it seems to require a property name to sort by. I realize I could keep the underlying collection sorted or wrap my ints in a reference type to use the SortDescription
, but both seem overkill. Am I missing something?
I'd like to do something like this, where MyCollection
is of type ObservableCollection<int>
<Grid.Resources>
<CollectionViewSource x:Key={sortedView} Source={Binding MyCollection}>
<CollectionViewSource.SortDescriptions>
<scm:SortDescription Direction="Ascending" PropertyName="???" />
</CollectionViewSource.SortDescriptions>
<CollectionViewSource>
<Grid.Resources>
...
<ItemsControl ItemsSource={StaticResource sortedView} />
Simply use .
as the property name:
<scm:SortDescription Direction="Ascending" PropertyName="." />
