Hi,
I'm at a loss here..
In the WinForms world, I have a bindingsource, set to a type. If I add a Infragistics WinGrid and set it's DataSource to the binding source, it discovers the properties of the type and creates columns, which I can customize from there.
With WPF, I add an ObjectDataProvider, and set it to a list type (a subclass of bindinglist<T>), and then set the XamDataGrid's DataSource to the ObjectDataProvider specified in the Resources of the window.. and nothing except the group by bar which appears above the data.
If I run, the grid can find the columns and display them, but the xaml is never updated so I can easily work with the column settings and not have to type it all by hand.
Am I missing something? Is this not how the XamDataGrid designer works? Please tell me I'm not doomed to hand typing everything..
Thanks
Andy
I just blogged about a technique you can use to reduce the amount of XAML you have to write when working with XamDataGrid. You can read it here.

Thanks, this will work for me for now.
Will there be a feature to do this automatically... maybe something via the property sheet?
