I am using an ObjectDataProvider declared in the XAML as follows:
<UserControl.Resources>
<ObjectDataProvider x:Key="odpTheList"
ObjectType="{x:Type library:StaticClass}"
MethodName="GetListOfItems" />
</UserControl.Resources>
Basically it calls StaticClass.GetListOfItems() to get the data.
Ok, the problem is that this GetListOfItems throws an exception when i am in design time - it actually gets the data from the database; The problem is the designer crashes (understandably), but is there a way to use the ObjectDataProvider like i am trying to use and still have the designer support?..
At runtime, it works perfectly.
I also tried to set IsInitialLoadEnabled="False", but without success.
Thanx in advance.
