How to use resources from ResourceManager in WPF binding


Is there any good tutorial on how to use ResourceManager in WPF binding ? I know how to use it with the GetString function to retrieve a specific resource, but I also would like to use in in binding.

something like

<TextBlock Text="{Binding Resource.EnterName}"/>

thanks


Solution

  • A binding would not do much except getting the value once as the resources do not provide any notifications as far as i know. You can get the values using x:Static, e.g.:

    <TextBlock xmlns:prop="clr-namespace:AppAssemblyName.Properties"
               Text="{x:Static prop:Resources.ResourceName}"/>
    

    (The resource's accessors need to be set to public)
