Dependency property in app.xaml.cs

问题

I am new to WPF and the below question may look silly for many, please pardon me.

How can I create a dependency property in app.xaml.cs?

Actually, I tried to created it. The below code,

    public static DependencyProperty TempProperty =
       DependencyProperty.Register("Temp", typeof(string), typeof(App));

    public string Temp
    {
        get { return (string)GetValue(TempProperty); }
        set { SetValue(TempProperty, value); }
    }

throws the below compile time errors:

The name 'GetValue' does not exist in the current context

The name 'SetValue' does not exist in the current context

Can anybody help me in this?

Thank you!

回答1:

DependencyProperties can only be created on DependencyObjects, and since Application (which your App class inherits from) doesn't implement it, you can't create a DependencyProperty directly on the App class.

I assume you want this property to support binding. If this is the case, you have two options:

Implement INotifyPropertyChanged in App.xaml.cs
Create a DependencyObject derived class with your properties on it, and expose it as a standard read-only property of your App. The properties can then be successfully bound by "dotting-down" to them. i.e if your new property is called Properties, you can bind like so:

   <TextBlock Text="{Binding Properties.Temp}" />

If the property needs to be the target of a Binding, then option #2 is your best bet.

You class that contains dependency properties must inherit from DependencyObject.
