I'm trying to use compiled binding I have a property Errors
that I used to bind using the regular binding like {Binding Errors[PropertyName]}
. However, when I tried to use {x:Bind VM.Errors[PropertyName]}
, I got this error
"Invalid binding path 'VM.Errors[PropertyName]' : Expected a digit"
I also tried to use quotes like VM.Errors['PropertyName']
but it does'nt solve the problem.
It does not work. Microsoft writes:
{Binding Groups[2].Title}
Binds to the specified item in the collection. Only integer-based indexes are supported.
See: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/apps/mt210946.aspx at the end of the page. I event tried implementing IReadOnlyDictionary oe IDictionary, but no success.
Its interessting because on https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/apps/mt185586.aspx they say:
For example, consider a business object where there is a list of "Teams" (ordered list), each of which has a dictionary of "Players" where each player is keyed by last name. An example property path to a specific player on the second team is: "Teams1.Players[Smith]". (You use 1 to indicate the second item in "Teams" because the list is zero-indexed.)
Update
My support case at Microsoft connnect was closed. They write:
Thank you for reporting this issue as well as providing a sample project. The suggested scenario was not supported in Windows 10 RTM. We are however considering adding such support to a future update to Windows 10.
