Data Validation in Silverlight (Method 1)

Here's one way to do validation in silverlight.

This is a pretty straight method using exceptions (if you're from the camp that allows exceptions in your Data objects )

[code:c#]

public string Name
{
get
{
return _name;
}
set
{
if ( value.Length >= 10 )
throw new ArgumentException( "Name is too long" );
_name = value;
}
}

NotifyOnValidationError="True"
ValidatesOnExceptions="True" />

[/code]
