Re: [Ironruby-core] Databinding in WPF against IronRuby objects

[Shay Friedman]

I find IronRuby types hard-to-work-with sometimes when it comes to WPF data
binding. What I do as a workaround is creating the data entity classes in C#
and initialize them from IronRuby code.

To fix your sample WPF app, I used the CLR string instead of IronRuby's. So
instead of:

    def initialize
      @ImageLocation = "http://www.ironruby.net/@api/deki/site/logo.png";
    end

You need to do:

    def initialize
      @ImageLocation =
"http://www.ironruby.net/@api/deki/site/logo.png".to_clr_string
    end


Shay.
