BoolToObjectConverter

The BoolToObjectConverter is a converter that allows users to convert a bool value binding to a specific object. By providing both a TrueObject and a FalseObject in the converter the appropriate object will be returned depending on the value of the binding.

The Convert method returns the TrueObject if the supplied value is true or the FalseObject otherwise.

The ConvertBack method returns true if the supplied value is equal to the TrueObject or false otherwise.

BaseConverter Properties

The following properties are implemented in the base class, public abstract class BaseConverter:

Property Description
DefaultConvertReturnValue Default value to return when IValueConverter.Convert(object?, Type, object?, CultureInfo?) throws an Exception. This value is used when CommunityToolkit.Maui.Options.ShouldSuppressExceptionsInConverters is set to true.
DefaultConvertBackReturnValue Default value to return when IValueConverter.ConvertBack(object?, Type, object?, CultureInfo?) throws an Exception. This value is used when CommunityToolkit.Maui.Options.ShouldSuppressExceptionsInConverters is set to true.

ICommunityToolkitValueConverter Properties

The following properties are implemented in the public interface ICommunityToolkitValueConverter:

Property Type Description
DefaultConvertReturnValue object? Default value to return when IValueConverter.Convert(object?, Type, object?, CultureInfo?) throws an Exception. This value is used when CommunityToolkit.Maui.Options.ShouldSuppressExceptionsInConverters is set to true.
DefaultConvertBackReturnValue object? Default value to return when IValueConverter.ConvertBack(object?, Type, object?, CultureInfo?) throws an Exception. This value is used when CommunityToolkit.Maui.Options.ShouldSuppressExceptionsInConverters is set to true.

Syntax

The following examples will show how to use the BoolToObjectConverter to change the background of an Entry control based on the specific value of a bound property IsValid is true or false.

XAML

Including the XAML namespace

In order to use the toolkit in XAML the following xmlns needs to be added into your page or view:

xmlns:toolkit="http://schemas.microsoft.com/dotnet/2022/maui/toolkit"

Therefore the following:

<ContentPage
    x:Class="CommunityToolkit.Maui.Sample.Pages.MyPage"
    xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/dotnet/2021/maui"
    xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2009/xaml">

</ContentPage>

Would be modified to include the xmlns as follows:

<ContentPage
    x:Class="CommunityToolkit.Maui.Sample.Pages.MyPage"
    xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/dotnet/2021/maui"
    xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2009/xaml"
    xmlns:toolkit="http://schemas.microsoft.com/dotnet/2022/maui/toolkit">

</ContentPage>

Using the BoolToObjectConverter

The BoolToObjectConverter can be used as follows in XAML:

<ContentPage xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/dotnet/2021/maui"
             xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2009/xaml"
             xmlns:toolkit="http://schemas.microsoft.com/dotnet/2022/maui/toolkit"
             x:Class="CommunityToolkit.Maui.Sample.Pages.Converters.BoolToObjectConverterPage">

    <ContentPage.Resources>
        <ResourceDictionary>
            <SolidColorBrush x:Key="TrueColorBrush">Green</SolidColorBrush>
            <SolidColorBrush x:Key="FalseColorBrush">Red</SolidColorBrush>

            <toolkit:BoolToObjectConverter x:Key="IsValidConverter" 
                TrueObject="{StaticResource TrueColorBrush}" 
                FalseObject="{StaticResource FalseColorBrush}"/>
        </ResourceDictionary>
    </ContentPage.Resources>

    <Entry Background="{Binding IsValid, Converter={StaticResource IsValidConverter}}" />

</ContentPage>

C#

The BoolToObjectConverter can be used as follows in C#:

class BoolToObjectConverterPage : ContentPage
{
    public BoolToObjectConverterPage()
    {
        var entry = new Entry();

        label.SetBinding(
            Label.IsVisibleProperty,
            new Binding(
                nameof(ViewModels.IsValid),
                converter: new BoolToObjectConverter
                {
                    TrueObject = new SolidColorBrush(Colors.Green),
                    FalseObject = new SolidColorBrush(Colors.Red)
                }));

        Content = label;
    }
}

C# Markup

Our CommunityToolkit.Maui.Markup package provides a much more concise way to use this converter in C#.

using CommunityToolkit.Maui.Markup;

class BoolToObjectConverterPage : ContentPage
{
    public BoolToObjectConverterPage()
    {
        Content = new Entry()
            .Bind(
                Label.BackgroundProperty,
                static (ViewModel vm) => vm.IsValid,
                converter: new BoolToObjectConverter
                {
                    TrueObject = new SolidColorBrush(Colors.Green),
                    FalseObject = new SolidColorBrush(Colors.Red)
                });
    }
}

Examples
