binding a winforms control's property to multiple object properties

Question

I am looking for a solution to bind a property of a windows forms control (Text of a button or a label) to multiple properties of one (or more) objects via a formatting string. Basically, the displayed text on a button should look like "static text $1 more static text $2" where $1 is bound to the to the property of an object and $2 is bound to a different property of the same or a different object. Is there an easy way to accomplish that?

Answer 1

You could encapsulate Property1 and Property2 in a third property that takes and returns the formatted string.

public string EncapsulatingProperty
{
    get { return "static text" + property1 + "more" + property2; }
    set { /* Parse the static text into the two variables */ }
}

如果您正在处理UX的WPF / Silverlight，我相信您可以编写一个ValueConverter来处理数据的正确显示...，在某些情况下，将值转换回去。
