Hi,
   

I have a scenario where I have to implement interface explicitly. I have simplified the case with the following code:

public interface IText

{

      string Text { get; set; }

}

public class MyText : IText

{

      public int Text { get; set; }

      string IText.Text{ get; set; }

      public MyText()

      {

            Text = 1;

            ((IText)this).Text = "Text";

      }                            

}

I have to bind list of IText  data in XamDataGrid:

List<IText> list = new List<IText>();

list.Add(new MyText());

list.Add(new MyText());

list.Add(new MyText());

xamDataGrid.DataSource = list;

I was expecting XamDataGrid would bind "Text" but it is showing "1" in the rows. Besides, I used similar case for a Console application with the following statements and it shows "Text" in the console.

foreach (var item in list)

{

      Console.WriteLine(item.Text);

}

Am I missing something or do I have to provide additional statements in order to have the data bind with string Text instead of int Text?
