Sometimes it is useful to be able to set bindings on DependencyObjects in code. If the object you are working in derives from FrameworkElement you can just use the object’s SetBinding method, but what if the object is derived from something else such as a Freezable?
The answer is that you use the static BindingOperations classes' SetBinding method, which unsurprisingly is what the implementation of SetBinding on FrameworkElement calls to do its work anyway.
My name is Caleb Vear and I am a software developer currently living in Canberra, Australia. I have just accepted a new role as a developer with Readify, a leading Australian-based consulting company. As part of my new role I will be doing a fair bit of travel and I hope to work on improving my skills by working on small projects that interest me during this time (along with any other free time). My hope is that I will be able to learn new technologies at the same time as making something I find useful. The plan is to share my experiences with you on this blog.
Along with posts relating to software development I may also post about other things which I think are interesting from time to time. To make things easier my posts will be tagged so if you are only interested in a particular topic you can just subscribe to that. The following is a list of tags I am currently planning to use, others may be added later and will hopefully be self explanatory.
Tech – the post relates somehow to technology.
Dev – the post relates to software development.
Politics – the post relates to politics :S.
Life – the post is something about my life in general.
This is my first post for my new blog. Previously I had a blog over on live spaces, but I hadn’t updated it in a while and I decided to start a new one with a new look. I will be reposting some of the better posts from my old blog to this one so that nobody misses out.
That will be all for now – Caleb out.
