Binding to RadGridView

[Shivam]

How can I bind RadGridview itemsource directly to a XElement ?  Is this feature supported by RadGridview ?

Hi Shivam ,

No, directly not , but you can bind to the collection returned by the XElement.Elements() method.

My XElement.Elements()is returning this XML  


<Student>

  

<Element Name = "abc" Class = "4" Section = "A" />

<Element Name = "abc" Class = "4" Section = "A" />

<Element Name = "abc" Class = "4" Section = "A" />

  

</Student>


and i need to bind this data to the columns of my gridview as shown in XAML :

<telerikGridView:RadGridView.Columns>

<telerikGridView:GridViewDataColumn
Header="Name"
Width="*"
IsSortable="True"
HeaderCellStyle="{StaticResource GridViewHeaderCellStyle}"
IsReadOnly="False"
 DataMemberBinding="{Binding Name}" />

 <telerikGridView:GridViewDataColumn
 Header="Class"
Width="*"
 IsSortable="True"
 HeaderCellStyle="{StaticResource GridViewHeaderCellStyle}"
 IsReadOnly="False"
 DataMemberBinding="{Binding Class}"/>

<telerikGridView:GridViewDataColumn
Header="Section"
Width="*"
 IsSortable="True"
 HeaderCellStyle="{StaticResource GridViewHeaderCellStyle}"
 IsReadOnly="False"
DataMemberBinding="{Binding Section}"/>

</telerikGridView:RadGridView.Columns>

I have tried to bind gridview with XElement.Elements() dynamically ..

Number of rows and columns generated are correct but cells are empty. respective attributes of the element are not binded properly.

Is there any binding format or different method to bind attributes of element in XML to  gridview ??
