如何从代码隐藏中访问XAML中已指定的DataContext？

Question

I'm specifying my DataContext view model inside my XAML, as follows:

<Window.DataContext>
    <vm:SeasonDivisionViewModel />
</Window.DataContext>

If that SeasonDivisionViewModel class has a public property, is it possible to access this from within the code-behind?

I'm trying to learn and take one step at a time, and I'd like to avoid adding commands yet, and just populate data from within code-behind, for now.

If you meant to access the DataContext after the view loads on the code behind you can simply use this.

var viewModel = (MyViewModel)DataContext;

Where MyViewModel is the data type of your data context.
