Bind listbox to database table

Question

I'm buinding a WPF application. I've created the database using Entity Framework Code First and now I would like to use my database with my GUI. I have a listbox in xaml

XAML

<Window.Resources>
        <DataTemplate x:Key="lstDishesTemplate">
            <StackPanel>
                <StackPanel Orientation="Horizontal">
                    <TextBlock Text="{Binding Path = Dishes.Description}" FontWeight="Bold"/>
                </StackPanel>
            </StackPanel>
        </DataTemplate>
    </Window.Resources>
<ListBox x:Name="lstDishes" Height="415" VerticalAlignment="Bottom" Margin="0,0,1032,42" HorizontalAlignment="Right" Width="281" ItemTemplate="{StaticResource lstDishesTemplate}" Background="#FFDDC9B0" BorderBrush="{x:Null}"/>

And then I'm trying to query my data in the table like this:

XAML.cs

private void Window_Loaded(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
{
    public PizzeriaDBContext db = new PizzeriaDBContext();

    var dish = db.Dishes.ToList();
    lstDishes.ItemsSource = dish;
}

I'm getting an exception:

An unhandled exception of type 'System.Reflection.TargetInvocationException' occurred in EntityFramework.SqlServer.dll

Additional information: Exception generated by destination of a call (translated).

Update:

ANSWER

Analyzing full exception, it seems that classes constructors must not have parameters.

Answer 1

At first:

The inner exception says your error:

Message=The class 'Cw2.Dish' has no parameterless constructor.
Source=EntityFramework

So you need to correct your constructor. If you show your classes, it is possible to fix your error.

The second step to edit:

You should correct binding path in your DataTemplate of Text property:

<TextBlock Text="{Binding Path = Description}" FontWeight="Bold"/>

Cause there is no such property Dishes.Description in your Dish class.
