In the MVVM toolkit, is there a way to add a DisplayNameAttribute to the generated properties? #739
|
I have an observable property generated from a field, now I need to change its display name but since I only have the field in my class, I can't actually apply the attribute (property only). Is there a way to work around this? |

Actually, I just noticed something similar is possible via the DisplayAttribute, although that one is sadly sealed, making it a bit harder to use. Any other option would still be appreciated. |

You can use |

I thought so, but DisplayNameAttribute has AttributeUsage set to properties only, so you can't add it to the field, that was the issue I faced when originally attempting this. |

You can if you use |

Oh, that is great, I didn't realize this was possible, thanks a lot 😊 |
You can use
[property: DisplayName(...)]on the field to forward any attributes you need on the generated property 🙂
