How to: Create a Simple Binding

This example shows you how to create a simple xref:System.Windows.Data.Binding.

Example

In this example, you have a Person object with a string property named PersonName. The Person object is defined in the namespace called SDKSample.

The highlighted line that contains the <src> element in the following example instantiates the Person object with a PersonName property value of Joe. This is done in the Resources section and assigned an x:Key.

[!code-xamlSimpleBinding]

The highlighted line that contains the <TextBlock> element then binds the xref:System.Windows.Controls.TextBlock control to the PersonName property. As a result, the xref:System.Windows.Controls.TextBlock appears with the value "Joe".
