avalonedit

I know that I must use an ElementHost to display a WPF control in a WinForm, but as the WPF control is third party software and it only comes with an XML file and a DLL file. The control is AvalonEdit , I added both the ICSharpCode.AvalonEdit.xml and ICSharpCode.AvalonEdit.dll files to my project, and I went to Project -> Add Reference and added the DLL as a reference.

I want to include an AvalonEdit TextEditor control into my MVVM application. The first thing I require is to be able to bind to the TextEditor.Text property so that I can display text. To do this I have followed and example that was given in Making AvalonEdit MVVM compatible .

I'm trying to make Avalon MVVM compatible in my WPF application. From googling, I found out that AvalonEdit is not MVVM friendly and I need to export the state of AvalonEdit by making a class derived from TextEditor then adding the necessary dependency properties. I'm afraid that I'm quite lost in Herr Grunwald's answer here : If you really need to export the state of the editor using MVVM, then I suggest you create a class deriving from TextEditor which adds the necessary dependency properties and synchronizes them with the actual properties in AvalonEdit. Does anyone have an example or have
