C# how to get text value from PasswordBox?

Question

I have a PasswordBox. how can I get the input value from the PasswordBox after the input has been finished?

Answer 1

You may not want to store the password in clear text in memory, from the msdn doc you should use SecurePassword in order to prevent that.

Example: SecureString myPass = passwordBox.SecurePassword
