[IronPython] Data binding - how?

[Patrick O'Brien]

For the life of me I can't successfully bind a list of class instances to a
data grid view.  I get the grid, with the correct column headers and correct
number of rows, but the cells are all empty.  Below is my most sophisticated
attempt.  Any pointers would be greatly appreciated.


import clr
import System

clr.AddReference('System.Windows.Forms')
import System.Windows.Forms as SWF


class Person(System.Object):

    def __init__(self, name, age):
        self._name = name
        self._age = age

    @property
    def Name(self):
        return self._name

    @property
    def Age(self):
        return self._age


class Form(SWF.Form):

    def __init__(self):
        SWF.Form.__init__(self)
        # Grid.
        self._people = people = []
        data = [
            ('Joe', 23),
            ('Bob', 8),
            ('Thomas', 32),
            ('Patrick', 41),
            ('Kathy', 19),
            ('Sue', 77),
            ]
        for name, age in data:
            people.append(Person(name, age))
        self._extent_binding_source = binding_source = SWF.BindingSource()
        binding_source.DataSource = people
        grid = SWF.DataGridView()
        grid.Columns.Add('Name', 'Name')
        grid.Columns.Add('Age', 'Age')
        grid.DataSource = binding_source
        grid.Dock = SWF.DockStyle.Fill
        self.Controls.Add(grid)


if __name__ == '__main__':
    SWF.Application.EnableVisualStyles()
    form = Form()
    SWF.Application.Run(form)
