Question

HI,

using VS2022 UWP c#

I am trying to put a DataTemplate into a ResourceDictionary using a x:DataType

I get a compile error

Severity Code Description Project File Line Suppression State

Error The XAML Binary Format (XBF) generator reported syntax error '0x09C4' : Property Not Found Chiropractor C:\Users\pryan\OneDrive\Chiropractor\Chiropractor....\MUA_Common\MUA_Common\Resources\DicPageResource.xaml 6

I am trying figure out how to resolve this issue or if cannot be done

<ResourceDictionary

xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"

xmlns:muca="using:MUA_Common.Model.Appointments" >

<DataTemplate x:Name="Test" x:Key="AppointmentLineTemplate" x:DataType ="muca:AppointmentModel" >

   

</DataTemplate>

</ResourceDictionary>

Hi @Paul Ryan ,

According to the official code sample, you need to add a namespace reference x:Class="YourProjectNameSpace.YourDictionaryXamlFileName" to this ResourceDictionary, and the content of ResourceDictionary cannot be empty.

<ResourceDictionary
    xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation" 
    xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
	xmlns:muca="using:MUA_Common.Model.Appointments"
    x:Class="YourProjectNameSpace.YourDictionaryXamlFileName">

    <DataTemplate x:Key="AppointmentLineTemplate" x:DataType ="muca:AppointmentModel" >
        <Grid>
        </Grid>
    </DataTemplate>
</ResourceDictionary>

Thank you.
