Question

I have a WPF Microsoft Surface Application and I’m using MVVM-Pattern.

I have some buttons that are created in code behind and I would like to bind commands to them, but I only know how that works in the XAML

like this:

<Custom:SurfaceButton Command="{Binding SaveReservationCommandBinding, Mode=OneWay}"/> 

But I cannot do it like this because my buttons do not exist in the XAML, only in the code behind.

So how would a command binding like that works in code behind?

Answer 1

Assuming that you have a named your SurfaceButton to “SurfaceButton1” and you have access to an instance of the command, you can use the following code:

SurfaceButton1.Command = SaveReservationCommand;
