When working with Binding converters are pretty common.. I always find myself

  • Right-click the correct Folder
  • Click Add
  • Click New Item
  • (Sometimes) Choose Code to the left
  • Choose Class and “Add” (and sometimes when I’m in a hurry a create an AboutBox instead 🙁 )
  • Copy an old IValueConverter or IMultiValueConverter
  • Change the namespace and the class name
  • Remove the old code

and then I can finally start to implement my new converter.

After this I also have to add this namespace to the xaml file and add it to resources before I can reference it. I’ve been doing this a million times and this is probablly the slowest way to do it so my question is..

What is the fastest way to create a Converter in Visual Studio?

    Probably the best resource for you is the Visual Studio templates. You can create your own and so you could right-click/create new item/Converter that would stub in everything that you’re doing manually.

    If you do create something like that, it would probably be a great little project to share with the community via codeplex or something like that.
