Hello,
I have an Entry and a Button. I want the command "CallWebServiceCommand" to be called when I press the button. The call to that command needs to include the url of the web service as a CommandParameter. The BindingContext is set to the ViewModel of the page.
<StackLayout>
<Entry x:Name="url" Text="http://examplewebservice.com/?wsdl" />
<Button Text="Call web service" Command="{Binding CallWebServiceCommand}" CommandParameter="{Binding ???}" />
</StackLayout>
The CommandParameter property of the button needs to reference the Text property of the entry. In WPF, I could do something like this:
<Button Text="Call web service" Command="{Binding CallWebServiceCommand}" CommandParameter="{Binding ElementName=url, Path=Text}" />
I know that it's not possible to have multiple binding contexts per view, but what would be a good workaround for this particular situation?
