Binding or Adding <telerikPrimitives:InfiniteListBoxItem

[john]

I'm excited to be using these controls.  One question about the infinite list box:

Is there any way (example?) to add items to the Infinite List Box other than the below code in the .cs?

InfiniteDataSource<string> source = new InfiniteDataSource<string>();
            source.LogicalItems.Add(new VirtualizedDataItem<string>("Item1"));
            source.LogicalItems.Add(new VirtualizedDataItem<string>("Item2"));
            this.lstSports.ItemsSource = source;
            this.lstSports.CenterSelectedIndex(4);

InfiniteDataSource<string> source = new InfiniteDataSource<string>();

            source.LogicalItems.Add(new VirtualizedDataItem<string>("NFL"));

            source.LogicalItems.Add(new VirtualizedDataItem<string>("MLB"));

            this.lstSports.ItemsSource = source;

            this.lstSports.CenterSelectedIndex(4);

InfiniteDataSource<string> source = new InfiniteDataSource<string>();

            source.LogicalItems.Add(new VirtualizedDataItem<string>("NFL"));

            source.LogicalItems.Add(new VirtualizedDataItem<string>("MLB"));

            this.lstSports.ItemsSource = source;

            this.lstSports.CenterSelectedIndex(4);

Seems like one would be able to use the  <telerikPrimitives:InfiniteListBoxItem right inside the XAML   or use {Binding on the <telerikPrimitives:InfiniteListBoxItem tag as well?

InfiniteDataSource<string> source = new InfiniteDataSource<string>();

            source.LogicalItems.Add(new VirtualizedDataItem<string>("NFL"));

            source.LogicalItems.Add(new VirtualizedDataItem<string>("MLB"));

            this.lstSports.ItemsSource = source;

            this.lstSports.CenterSelectedIndex(4);

Hello john,

Thanks for writing and for your interest in RadControls for Windows Phone 7.

Currently, the RadInfiniteListBox does not support adding items through XAML. However, I would like to inform you that we are going to migrate this control to our new RadLoopingList control which we are currently using in the date/time picker controls and which uses a better approach of implementing the infinite scrolling. We hope that this control will be available for the beta version of RadControls for Windows Phone 7 scheduled for the beginning of the next year.

You can also check out our new CTP2 release (coming in a few days) that will contain some improvements in our Demos application, as well as a couple of new controls for you to use like RadListPicker and RadNumericUpDown.

Do not hesitate to write back in case of further questions.

Kind regards,
Deyan
