Selector.SelectedValuePath Property

Microsoft Silverlight will reach end of support after October 2021. Learn more.

Gets or sets the property path that is used to get the SelectedValue property of the SelectedItem property.

Namespace: System.Windows.Controls.Primitives
Assembly: System.Windows (in System.Windows.dll)

Syntax

'Declaration
Public Property SelectedValuePath As String

public string SelectedValuePath { get; set; }

<selector SelectedValuePath="propertyPath"/>

XAML Values

propertyPath
A string that is evaluated as a simple dot syntax path to an object property.

Property Value

Type: System.String
The property path that is used to get the SelectedValue property of the SelectedItem property. The default is Empty.

Remarks

Dependency property identifier field: SelectedValuePathProperty

SelectedValuePath is used to specify what value is returned by the SelectedValue property. For example, if you have a control derived from Selector that is bound to a collection of objects of type Employee, and Employee has two properties named EmployeeName and EmployeeNumber. You can set SelectedValuePath to "EmployeeNumber" to have SelectedValue return the value of EmployeeNumber.

Examples

The following example shows how to use the SelectedValuePath and SelectedValue properties with a ComboBox control. The DisplayMemberPath is set to the name of the displayed document, and the SelectedValuePath is set to the ID property. In this example, the ID for the selected item is simply displayed on the screen, but in a real application, you could use it to retrieve the selected object.
