How do I solve Xamarin.Forms.Xaml.XamlParseException

I am new to Xamarin Forms and C# too. Kindly help me to get rid of the above issue.

I am getting

Xamarin.Forms.Xaml.XamlParseException

while I am trying to add the string format of my selected image source to CandidateDetails.cs.

The pages are as follow:

CandidateDetails.cs

public event PropertyChangedEventHandler PropertyChanged; private string imageBase64; public string ImageBase64 { get { return imageBase64; } set { imageBase64 = value; OnPropertyChanged("ImageBase64"); CandImage = Xamarin.Forms.ImageSource.FromStream( () => new MemoryStream(Convert.FromBase64String(imageBase64))); } } private Xamarin.Forms.ImageSource _candImage; public Xamarin.Forms.ImageSource CandImage { get { return _candImage; } set { _candImage = value; OnPropertyChanged("CandImage"); } } public string _candName; public string CandName { get { return _candName; } set { if (_candName == value) return; _candName = value; OnPropertyChanged("CandName"); } } public string _candInst; public string CandInst { get { return _candInst; } set { if (_candInst == value) return; _candInst = value; OnPropertyChanged("CandInst"); } } public string _candEmailId; public string CandEmailId { get { return _candEmailId; } set { if (_candEmailId == value) return; _candEmailId = value; OnPropertyChanged("CandEmailId"); } } public string _candMob; public string CandMob { get { return _candMob; } set { if (_candMob == value) return; _candMob = value; OnPropertyChanged("CandMob"); } } private void OnPropertyChanged([CallerMemberName] string propertyName = null) { PropertyChanged?.Invoke(this, new PropertyChangedEventArgs(propertyName)); } 

CandidateDetailsModalPage.xaml.cs

public partial class CandidateDetailsModalPage : ContentPage { Stream input; string imageAsString; public static ObservableCollection<CandidateDetails> _candidate = new ObservableCollection<CandidateDetails>(); async void OnDoneClicked(object sender, System.EventArgs e) { _candidate.Add(new CandidateDetails { CandName = (string)candNameEntry.Text, CandEmailId = (string)candEmailId.Text, CandMob = (string)candMobNumber.Text, ImageBase64 = imageAsString }); await Navigation.PopModalAsync(); } public CandidateDetailsModalPage() { InitializeComponent(); pickPhoto.Clicked += async (sender, args) => { if (!CrossMedia.Current.IsPickPhotoSupported) { await DisplayAlert("Photos Not Supported", ":( Permission not granted to photos.", "OK"); return; } var file = await CrossMedia.Current.PickPhotoAsync(new Plugin.Media.Abstractions.PickMediaOptions { PhotoSize = Plugin.Media.Abstractions.PhotoSize.Medium }); if (file == null) return; input = file.GetStream(); byte[] buffer = new byte[16 * 1024]; using (MemoryStream ms = new MemoryStream()) { int read; while ((read = input.Read(buffer, 0, buffer.Length)) > 0) { ms.Write(buffer, 0, read); } imageAsString = Convert.ToBase64String(ms.ToArray()); } //image.Source = ImageSource.FromStream(() => new MemoryStream(Convert.FromBase64String(imageAsString))); image.Source = ImageSource.FromStream(() => { var stream = file.GetStream(); file.Dispose(); return stream; }); }; } } 

CandidateDetailsModalPage.xaml

<StackLayout Orientation="Vertical" BackgroundColor="#3B4371" Padding="0"> <Button Text="Done" Clicked="OnDoneClicked" /> <ic:CircleImage x:Name="image"/> <Button x:Name="pickPhoto" Text="Pick Photo"/> <StackLayout VerticalOptions="FillAndExpand"> <Entry x:Name="candNameEntry" Placeholder="Candidate Name" /> <Entry x:Name="candInst" Placeholder="Candidate Institution / Party"/> <Entry x:Name="candEmailId" Placeholder="Candidate Email Id" /> <Entry x:Name="candMobNumber" Placeholder="Candidate Mobile Number"/> </StackLayout> </StackLayout> 

The following is the backend of the xaml page where I am displaying the data CandidateDisplayPage.xaml.cs

candidateListView.ItemsSource = CandidateDetailsModalPage._candidate; 

CandidateDisplayPage

<ListView x:Name="candidateListView"> <ListView.ItemTemplate> <DataTemplate> <ViewCell> <StackLayout Orientation="Horizontal"> <Image x:Name="candImage" ImageSource="{Binding Path=CandImage}"/> <Label Text="{Binding CandName}" x:Name="candName"/> </StackLayout> </ViewCell> </DataTemplate> </ListView.ItemTemplate> </ListView>
