Question

I’m trying to dynamically add some paths to a Grid, but this generates an infinite loop that results in a SO.

    private void SubLayout_Loaded(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
    {
        GeometryGroup myGeometryGroup = new GeometryGroup();
        EllipseGeometry myEllipseGeometry = new EllipseGeometry();
        myEllipseGeometry.Center = new Point(100, 41.5);
        myEllipseGeometry.RadiusX = 5;
        myEllipseGeometry.RadiusY = 5;
        myGeometryGroup.Children.Add(myGeometryGroup);
        points.Data = myGeometryGroup;
    }

XAML:

   <Path x:Name="points" Fill="Gold" Stroke="Black" 
StrokeThickness="1"> </Path>

Error:

System.StackOverflowException was unhandled

I see myGeometryGroup.Children.Add(myGeometryGroup);, you probabbly
would do

myGeometryGroup.Children.Add(myEllipseGeometry);
