正如绑定TextBox控件的Text属性一样, 我们希望能够将PasswordBox空间的Password属性进行绑定, 比如在MVVM模式中,这似乎是必须的, 但可惜的是, Password属性是不支持绑定的(不是依赖属性, 也没有实现INotifyPropertyChanged).
这可能是出于安全性的考虑. 但在我们的系统为了实现View层密码框中的密码与后台其它层之间的密码属性之间的绑定, 可以采取如下思路: 将密码框的密码和某一个缓冲区进行同步, 缓冲区在和后台进行绑定. 其中密码框与缓冲区之间的同步可采用事件进行通知, 并将缓冲区打造成依赖属性, 然后缓冲区就支持绑定了, 并给后台提供正确的密码.
缓冲区可以是哈希表或其他字典结构, 以便将密码框和缓冲区中的密码一 一对应起来, 也可以使AttachProperty(附加属性), 其实附加属性的机制也就是对缓存了的一个大字典进行操作
