GridViewComboBoxColumn with Enums

[Torben]

I have at WPF app with a main window using MVVM and EF.

In the MainView I have RadGridView with a GridViewComboBoxColumn that is bound to a  property on my model,

I would like to use it with a Enum when the user want to edit the value.

XAML in MainView

<Window>
    <UserControl.DataContext>
        <viewModel:MainViewModel/>
    </UserControl.DataContext>
    <Grid>
         <telerik:RadGridView ItemsSource="{Binding MyUserList}">
    <telerik:RadGridView.Columns>
<telerik:GridViewDataColumn Header="ID"
                            DataMemberBinding="{Binding Id}"
IsReadOnly="True" />
<telerik:GridViewComboBoxColumn DataMemberBinding="{Binding UseName}"
ItemsSource="{Binding AvailableUserNameEnum}"
                                UniqueName="UseTheName"
      </telerik:RadGridView.Columns>
      </telerik:RadGridView>
    </Grid>
 </Window>

Code in MainViewmodel

public enumUseNameEnum
{
   NA,
   No,
   Yes
}
public List<UseNameEnum> AvailableUseNameEnum { get; set; }
private void Fill AvailableUseNameEnums()
        {
            AvailableUseNameEnum = new List<UseNameEnum>
            {
                UseNameEnum.Yes,
UseNameEnum.No,
                UseNameEnum.NA
            };
        }
Data from the Table User is hold the this list, that is bound to the grid:
public ObservableCollection<Users> MyUserList { get; set; }

Table User has 2 Columns: ID  and UseName

The Grid shows data fine, except for the UseName Column, that is blank.  When clicked in the combobox , it has data , the 3 options,  but when one is selected the values is not showing in the cell. It is still blank.

Hello Torben,

In this scenario, you can use the EnumDataSource utility in order to bind the GridViewComboBox column.

For your convenience, I'm attaching a sample implementation which you can incorporate into your project. Please let me know if you need any further assistance with this.
