I'm getting an invalid cast exception when trying to bind to an Int. I know I need to use a Value Converter, but I'm wondering if there are any baked in, or if I need to implement each one by hand?
The Property
public int Age { get; set; }
The XAML
<Entry Placeholder="Age"
Keyboard="Numeric"
Text="{Binding Age}" />
The Error
UNHANDLED EXCEPTION: System.ArgumentException: Object type System.String cannot be converted to target type: System.Int32
