How to select an Item from a combobox filled from an XML file?
I have a ComboBox, filled from an XML file:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <Configuration Version="1.5"> <Materials> <Material PartMat="1.15" LongName="Aluminium, ε >=5%" ShortName="Alge5" /> <Material PartMat="1.3" LongName="Aluminium, ε<=5%" ShortName="Alle5 /> .... and some more... </Materials> .... etc <UserControl.Resources> <XmlDataProvider x:Key="Config" Source="ConfigData.xml" XPath="//Materials"/> </UserControl.Resources> <ComboBox DisplayMemberPath="@ShortName" ItemsSource="{Binding Source={StaticResource Config} ,XPath=*}" SelectedIndex="0" SelectedValue="{Binding Path=...., Mode=TwoWay, UpdateSourceTrigger=PropertyChanged}" SelectionChanged="MaterialComboBox_SelectionChanged"/> The pull-down list shows correctly.
However, What goes into the Path of SelectedValue?
And what type is that Property? An XmlNode, a string or indeed a Material? No: no string, no Material, no XmlNode, i think/found.
