How can I convert a property name to a framework element in WPF?












3















This is the code in C#:



 public static FrameworkElement GetFocusedOn(UIElement element)
{
return (FrameworkElement)element.GetValue(FocusedOnProperty);
}


I'm trying to write it in VB.NET but it does not cast to a FrameworkElement. Any ideas?

          This should work provided that the FocusedOn property returns a FrameworkElement:



          Public Shared Function GetFocusedOn(ByVal element As UIElement) As FrameworkElement
          Return CType(element.GetValue(FocusedOnProperty), FrameworkElement)
          End Function


          You want to use the TryCast operator.

            Public Shared Function GetFocusedOn(ByVal element As UIElement) As FrameworkElement
            Return CType(element.GetValue(FocusedOnProperty), FrameworkElement)
