Inheritance from RadMenu

[Matthias Bibo]

Hello,

we have inherited our own controlset  from the Telerik Rad-controls, so that we can extend them on demand with custom functionality.

Everything works perfect, but we have a small  issue with the context menu.

It works on runtime, but on designtime it destroys our xaml previews, so that we have no previews anymore.

The function GetContextMenu() seems to lead to a null exception in the xaml.

So, my question is, what are we doing wrong, and what is the correct way to inherit from RadContextMenu.

Regards,

BDL

namespace Bdl.DialogCrm.Silverlight.Core.BDLControls
{
    using System.Linq;
    using Bdl.DialogCrm.Silverlight.Core.ViewManagement;
    using Telerik.Windows.Controls;

    public class BDLContextMenue : RadContextMenu
    {
        public BDLContextMenue()
        {
        }

        public static new BDLContextMenue GetContextMenu(System.Windows.FrameworkElement element)
        {
            if (RadContextMenu.GetContextMenu(element) is BDLContextMenue)
            {
                return (BDLContextMenue)RadContextMenu.GetContextMenu(element);
            }
            else
            {
                return null;
            }
        }

        public bool HasMenuItem(BDLMenuItem item)
        {
            if (this.Items.Any(x => ((x is BDLMenuItem) && ((x as BDLMenuItem) == item))))
            {
                return true;
            }
            else
            {
                return false;
            }
        }
    }
}

Hi Matthias,

The problem is that there was no Set method implemented. Please find attached the project with added Set method. This should resolve the issue.

Kind regards,
