First of all you should create property with employee details in the Employee
class:
public class Employee
{
public Employee()
{
EmployeeDetails = new EmployeeDetails();
EmployeeDetails.EmpID = 123;
EmployeeDetails.EmpName = "ABC";
}
public EmployeeDetails EmployeeDetails { get; set; }
}
If you don't do that, you will create instance of object in Employee
constructor and you lose reference to it.
In the XAML you should create instance of Employee
class, and after that you can assign it to DataContext
.
Your XAML should look like this:
<Window x:Class="SampleApplication.MainWindow"
xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
Title="MainWindow" Height="350" Width="525"
xmlns:local="clr-namespace:SampleApplication"
>
<Window.Resources>
<local:Employee x:Key="Employee" />
</Window.Resources>
<Grid DataContext="{StaticResource Employee}">
<Grid.RowDefinitions>
<RowDefinition Height="Auto" />
<RowDefinition Height="Auto" />
</Grid.RowDefinitions>
<Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
<ColumnDefinition Width="Auto" />
<ColumnDefinition Width="200" />
</Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
<Label Grid.Row="0" Grid.Column="0" Content="ID:"/>
<Label Grid.Row="1" Grid.Column="0" Content="Name:"/>
<TextBox Grid.Column="1" Grid.Row="0" Margin="3" Text="{Binding EmployeeDetails.EmpID}" />
<TextBox Grid.Column="1" Grid.Row="1" Margin="3" Text="{Binding EmployeeDetails.EmpName}" />
</Grid>
</Window>
Now, after you created property with employee details you should binding by using this property:
Text="{Binding EmployeeDetails.EmpID}"
