How can I access the datacontext of the parent element in windows phone 8? AncestorType is not available in WP8.
<ItemsControl x:Name="Elements" ItemsSource="{Binding MyList}" Grid.Row="2" Grid.Column="3">
<ItemsControl.ItemsPanel>
<ItemsPanelTemplate>
<toolkit:WrapPanel />
</ItemsPanelTemplate>
</ItemsControl.ItemsPanel>
<ItemsControl.ItemTemplate>
<DataTemplate>
<Button Content="e" Width="100" Height="100" Command="{Binding MyCommand" />
</DataTemplate>
</ItemsControl.ItemTemplate>
</ItemsControl>
"MyCommand" is defined outside of "MyList". So how can I access from my button to the root datacontext (DataContext = MyClass). MyCommand is defined in the MyClass class.
Thanks in advance.
