How to propagate Dependency Property PropertyChanged event through binding in WPF?

I have a UserControl, which contains a DependencyProperty (string) in it's code behind. The property works fine, I am setting it from the code behind, and a label on the UserControl displays it's content properly via Binding. There is no Binding exception. The problem is: If i try to Bind something from outside to the UserControl's property, the Binding works, i can see the label displaying the string, but if the code behind changes the string, i cant receive the event at the outside Property. I even put a breakpoint in it's setter, but it never occurs. So, the question is: how do I propagate the dependency property's changed event to the outside property?

  • The getter and setter for a dependency property are not used for bindings (this is why your breakpoints don't get hit). You have to pass a PropertyChangedCallback as part of FrameworkPropertyMetadata in the DependencyProperty.Register function. See this answer for more information and an example.
