StiWpfViewerControl Report Binding

[aferguson]

Hello,

If this question has been asked already, I apologize; I couldn't find it in the search.

Basically what I'm trying to do is bind an StiReport to the Report property of an StiWpfViewerControl, and I'm not having any luck. It tells me that Report is not a dependency property, and so binding is unavailable. As I'm using MVVM, I would like to avoid directly setting a property on the StiWpfViewerControl itself (in the View), and instead simply change the value of a bound property in the ViewModel. Am I missing something or some other property, or is this just not possible? Any help would be most appreciated.

Thanks,
Adam

Hello,

The Report property in StiWpfViewerControl is described as a simple property but not the DependencyProperty:

private StiReport report;
public StiReport Report
{
get
{
return report;
}
set
{
.....
report = value;
}
}

Therefore, Binding will not work. You need to use the following code viewer.Report = report;

Thank you.

That's what I was afraid of. Having to set the report object on the view directly isn't really a desirable way to handle it when building the report object on the viewmodel. Is there any chance that in the future this will become a dependency property to support binding? In any case, thanks for the clarification.
