Using enum in ConverterParameter
ArsenMkrt's answer is correct,
Another way of doing this is to use the x:Static syntax in the ConverterParameter
<Button ... Visibility="{Binding Path=CurrentAuthenticationLevel, Converter={StaticResource AuthenticationToVisibility}, ConverterParameter={x:Static local:AuthenticationEnum.Administrator}}"/>And in the converter
public class AuthenticationToVisibility : IValueConverter{ public object Convert(object value, Type targetType, object parameter, System.Globalization.CultureInfo culture) { AuthenticationEnum authenticationEnum = (AuthenticationEnum)parameter; //... }}
User
(AuthenticationEnum)Enum.Parse(typeof(AuthenticationEnum),parameter)to parse string as enumerator
