Binding RadTreeListView to ModelItem

[Arinto]

Hi there, 

We want to use RadTreeListView to bind into Workflow Foundation's ModelItem.
The example shown in this sample code is using TreeView to display WF ModelItem. But in our requirement, we need additional columns to display information in the node. That's why we plan to use RadTreeListView. However, we haven't been able to bind it properly to ModelItem.

So, do you have any idea how to bind ModelItem to RadTreeListView?
Here is the simplified structure of ModelItem that we want to bind

1. ModelItem has collection of ModelProperty
2. The Value property of ModelProperty object is another ModelItem
3. So, we want to bind to ModelItem (let's say MI), and then MI's children will be collection of ModelProperty.Value (which is also a type of ModelItem)

Thanks and best regards, 

Arinto

Hi there,

Additional info on ModelItem class. ModelItem can be bound to WPF XAML using its dynamic binding.
Refer to these two links for additional informations:
1. Improving ModelItem with Dynamic
2. Deep Dive into WF Designer Data Model: ModelItem and ModelProperty

So we can use ModelItem properties directly in the XAML.
Example. This example works well for Sequence Activity in Workflow framework

<telerik:RadTreeListView Name="sequenceTreeListView"
                         AutoGenerateColumns="False"
                         SelectionUnit="FullRow"
                         SelectionMode="Single"
                         HierarchyColumnIndex="0"
                         Grid.Row="0"
                         telerik:StyleManager.Theme="Windows7"
                         ItemsSource="{Binding }"
                         >
    <telerik:RadTreeListView.Columns>
        <telerik:GridViewDataColumn Header="Title"
                                    IsFilterable="False"
                                    DataMemberBinding="{Binding Path=ItemType}"/>
    </telerik:RadTreeListView.Columns>
    <telerik:RadTreeListView.ChildTableDefinitions>
        <telerik:TreeListViewTableDefinition ItemsSource="{Binding Path=Activities, Converter={StaticResource childrenConverter}}"/>
    </telerik:RadTreeListView.ChildTableDefinitions>
</telerik:RadTreeListView>
