[Solved] [BREAKING CHANGE]PropertyDefinition's Binding property is now of type BindingBase

[Paul]

Hi,
    With this new breaking change how would I achieve the following that worked before this change.

e.PropertyDefinition.Binding.Converter = new Classes.NumberToBooleanConverter();
e.PropertyDefinition.EditorTemplate = GetCheckBoxDataTemplate(e.PropertyDefinition.Binding.Path.Path);

Setting the converter and accessing the binding.Path
Thanks
Paul

Hello,

As BindingBase is a base type for Binding, you can check whether the e.PropertyDefinition.BInding is Binding and upcast it, like this:
if(e.PropertyDefinition.Binding is Binding)
(e.PropertyDefinition.Binding as Binding).Converter = new Classes.NumberToBooleanConverter();
Basically the autogenerated binding are always of type Binding so direct cast should be safe. We have changed the property type to be BindingBase in order to add support for Multibinding and PriorirtyBinding in WPF and since we maintain common codebase for both platforms we had to change it in SL too.
