MVVM Binding Password

Question

I am re-factoring my application to implement the MVVM design and i came across my first problem...

Compiler won't let me bind to the Password property of the PasswordBox control.

Anyone have any ideas / suggestions.

Did you see this filthy, dirty hack? http://www.wpftutorial.net/PasswordBox.html — , Apr 26 '10 at 12:32
Hehe, thats one way of doing it :) I'll implement that, but maybe someone knows a different way. It does seem a bit hackish. — Michal Ciechan, Apr 26 '10 at 12:53
Oh.. you have to manually add Mode=TwoWay for it to work correctly. — Michal Ciechan, Apr 26 '10 at 13:12

Dunno if there is a best practices version, but here's a dirty filthy hack.

As it may be useful to others, this answer shows another possible solution for this problem: the idea there is to pass the PasswordBox as a parameter to the command that handles the password validation so that its Password property is accessible from there...
