I have a grid with repeated columns with same style but different names the name are important for me in code behind so i decided to create a template to repeat the element and read the names from an XML file but i found out i can not use binding for name property please kindly help me sooooooooooooooooooooooooooon
here is a part of my code:
<DataTemplate x:Key="weekItemTemplate">
<Gridx:Name="{Binding XPath=Container}" Style="{DynamicResource GridStyle}">
<Grid.RowDefinitions>
<RowDefinition Height="0.9*"/>
<RowDefinition Height="0.1*"/>
</Grid.RowDefinitions>
<Rectangle x:Name="Rectangle" Grid.Row="0" Margin="0,0,0,0.063"/>
<TextBlock x:Name="Christian" HorizontalAlignment="Left" Width="18.52" Grid.Row="1" Margin="1,0,0,0"><Run Text="08"/></TextBlock>
<TextBlock x:Name="Hejri" Grid.Row="1" HorizontalAlignment="Right" Width="9.773" Margin="0,0,0,0"><Run Text="۰۱"/></TextBlock>
<TextBlock x:Name="Persian" Margin="1,0,0,0" HorizontalAlignment="Left" Width="10"><Run Text="۰"/></TextBlock>
</Grid>
</DataTemplate>
</Window.Resources>
<Grid Margin="0,10,0,0">
<Grid.DataContext>
<XmlDataProvider x:Name="TeamData" Source="weekdays.xml" XPath="days/day" />
</Grid.DataContext>
<ListView x:Name="TeamsListBox" DockPanel.Dock="Left"
ItemsSource="{Binding}"
ItemTemplate="{StaticResource weekItemTemplate}"
IsSynchronizedWithCurrentItem="True"
Visibility="Visible" SelectionMode="Single" />
Code-behind wants names to be statically resolvable. That said, if the names are really dynamic, how could you write code that depends on the names in all cases? Perhaps there is a way you can modify the design so that you don’t need to access the weekItem views directly, but can rather work with a class that models how the weekItem view behaves. For instance, if you need to register events or set certain properties, you could instead use a Command binding to a ‘WeekItemViewModel’ class and expose properties that reflect what you’d like the view to convey.
Once you do this, you’ve eliminated your dependency on specific names, which means you can dynamically load your data and instantiate these WeekItemViewModel classes, which insulate you from the details of how the view is actually laid out. Your code can focus more on how it wants to interact and less on how you wire up the code-behind to your specific visuals.
