Hello :-)

I hope you can help me out again.

So I´m about to writing a WinRT App with C# and XAML.
Let me make an example what it should doing:

We see 3 Labels, 3 Textboxes and a Addbutton:
Name | Surname | Birthday
TB1 | TB2 | TB3 | Addbutton

Now I type in my Informations as usally. By Clicking the Addbutton the App should take the given informations, append a new line to the Grid and write the given informations in it.

I get really stucked here...could any one please give me advises how to realise it?!

Solution 1

Alex - the approach I would take would be to use an ObservableCollection that holds a collection of the class you are using to wrap the name, surname and birthday in. This collection will be the ItemsSource in your GridView - when you add an item to it, the application will automatically display the new element.

Thank you a lot Pete. This sounds very complicated....So I have to create a class with a lot of getters and setters?

It's not complicated at all - it's something called MVVM. Have a read of this article to get an idea: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/magazine/dd419663.aspx
