GrdiViewDataColumn with converter and converterparameter with binding

[Dario Concilio]

Actually I have this column, my entity has other property called "Type", this one show me how to use a converter class.

I would change this column in this vesion

<telerik:GridViewDataColumn Header="Valore" DataMemberBinding="{Binding Value,Converter={StaticResource DynamicsParameterConverter}, ConverterParameter={Binding Type}}" Width="*" />

Hi Potito,

Because the ConverterParameter property is not a dependency property and hence can not be bound, an alternative solution is to use a MultiBinding with a multi-value converter instead of a normal Binding. Please take a look at Binding ConverterParameter StackOverflow article where you can find detailed information on the matter.

I hope that this helps.

I saw, thank you, finally I decided to change the nature of the property "Value", in this way I have encapsulated the value parameter, then running it into the converter.

Hello Potito,

I am glad to hear that you have found a workaround for this restriction.

Hello Martin, for curiosity,

but how do I use MultiBinding approach, if I have to use it on DataMemberBinding ?!?

This one hasn't DependencyProperty.

Hi Potito,

The best way to achieve your goal will be to declare CellTemplate for the desired column and use a simple TextBlock with MultiBinding approach for the Text property.

I hope this helps.
