Add comboBox items from the code behind. [WPF]
I took this code from MSDN . What I'm trying to do is similar, but uses a list instead of three different strings. so tell me
List<string> strList = new List<string>();
strList.Add("Created with C#");
strList.Add("Item 2");
strList.Add("Item 3");
//MSDN CODE BELOW
cbox = new ComboBox();
cbox.Background = Brushes.LightBlue;
cboxitem = new ComboBoxItem();
cboxitem.Content = "Created with C#";
cbox.Items.Add(cboxitem);
cboxitem2 = new ComboBoxItem();
cboxitem2.Content = "Item 2";
cbox.Items.Add(cboxitem2);
cboxitem3 = new ComboBoxItem();
cboxitem3.Content = "Item 3";
cbox.Items.Add(cboxitem3);
cv2.Children.Add(cbox);
Tried doing cbox.Items.Add (strList); Also tried looping a loop through each element, but that doesn't work either. Any ideas how I can achieve this?
XAML:
<Grid x:Name="grid44" DataContext="{StaticResource tBLPERMITSViewSource}" HorizontalAlignment="Left" VerticalAlignment="Top" Width="409">
<Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
<ColumnDefinition Width="Auto"/>
<ColumnDefinition Width="Auto"/>
</Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
<Grid.RowDefinitions>
<RowDefinition Height="Auto"/>
</Grid.RowDefinitions>
<Label Content="SPR PACKET ASSIGMENT" Grid.Column="0" HorizontalAlignment="Left" Margin="3" Grid.Row="0" VerticalAlignment="Center" FontWeight="Bold"/>
<ComboBox x:Name="sPR_ASSIGNEDComboBox" Grid.Column="1" DisplayMemberPath="SPR_ASSIGNED" HorizontalAlignment="Left" Height="Auto" Text="{Binding SPR_ASSIGNED}" ItemsSource="{Binding Items}" Margin="3,5,-114.35,5" Grid.Row="0" VerticalAlignment="Center" Width="238.35" Background="White" IsReadOnly="True" IsEditable="True" >
</ComboBox>
</Grid>

Install programmatically:
Code for:
private void PopulateComboBox()
{
cBox.ItemsSource = new List<string> { "Item1", "Item2", "Item3"};
}
XAML:
<ComboBox Width="200" Height="30" x:Name="cBox" />
Bind to a set of elements:
public class DummyClass
{
public int Value { get; set; }
public string DisplayValue { get; set;}
}
public ObservableCollection<DummyClass> DummyClassCollection
{
get
{
return new ObservableCollection<DummyClass>
{
new DummyClass{DisplayValue = "Item1", Value = 1},
new DummyClass{DisplayValue = "Item2", Value = 2},
new DummyClass{DisplayValue = "Item3", Value = 3},
new DummyClass{DisplayValue = "Item4", Value = 4},
};
}
}
XAML:
<ComboBox Width="200" Height="30" x:Name="cBox" ItemsSource="{Binding DummyClassCollection}" DisplayMemberPath="DisplayValue" />
