Trouble displaying Enums in a Combobox in WF4

Question

I'm trying to follow the solution from this post in my WF4 project: Databinding an enum property to a ComboBox in WPF

And I've implemented the code

<ObjectDataProvider MethodName="GetValues" ObjectType="{x:Type s:Enum}" x:Key="DayOfWeekValues"> <ObjectDataProvider.MethodParameters> <x:Type TypeName="s:DayOfWeek" /> </ObjectDataProvider.MethodParameters> </ObjectDataProvider> <ComboBox ItemsSource="{Binding Source={StaticResource DayOfWeekValues}}"/>

I'm getting the following error on the TypeName="s:DayOfWeek" property.

Cannot reparent the node "Type(System.DayOfWeek)" from the old parent "IList" to the new parent "ObjectDataProvider".

Any ideas about what this error means?

EDIT: In addition to the error above, I'm also getting the following error on the MethodName="GetValues" property on the ObjectDataProvider.

INCORRECT_PARAMETER_TYPE

To followup, even though I was getting the error, I tried to use the activity anyway. There was no problem using the activity in my main workflow. It found the enum values just fine. — Nael

I was impatient about getting that "reparenting" error as well but it compiles nonetheless. Thanks for the tip ! — Dr1Ku

Just rebuild (not build) the solution or rebuild the project and it will work just fine.
