Windows Store App DataBind TextBlock to Object From Web Service

0
 

I am new to Windows Store app and I am connecting to a web service that I have created. I get an object called user that has all the information that I need to populate my controls with and the values are being populated correctly in the object. What I cannot seem to figure out is how to connect the object to the controls on the XAML page. I am currently trying to populate the users first name to the  textblock.

I have gone through tutorials and I cannot see what I am missing.

Here is the code for my XAML:

 
 
       
           
               
           
           
               
               
           
           
           
               
               
               
               
               
               
           
           
       
   

Code Behind For That Page:
    public sealed partial class MainMenu : Page
    {
        User usr = new User();
        public MainMenu()
        {
            this.InitializeComponent();

        }

        ///

        /// Invoked when this page is about to be displayed in a Frame.
        ///

        /// Event data that describes how this page was reached.  The Parameter
        /// property is typically used to configure the page.
        protected override void OnNavigatedTo(NavigationEventArgs e)
        {
            usr = (User)e.Parameter;
            CurrentUserDataSource cuDS = new CurrentUserDataSource(usr);
        }
    }
}

CurrentUserDataSource.cs
    class CurrentUserDataSource
    {
        public CurrentUserDataSource()
        {
        }
        public CurrentUserDataSource(User user)
        {
            LoadUser(user);
        }
        private ObservableCollection currentUser;

        public ObservableCollection ThisUser
        {
            get { return currentUser; }
            set { currentUser = value; }
        }
        private void LoadUser(User user)
        {
            currentUser = new ObservableCollection
            {
                new CurrentUser
                {
                    FirstName = user.FirstName,
                    LastName = user.LastName,
                    EmailAddress = user.LastName,
                    LastSignIn = user.LastSignIn,
                    SignUpdate = user.SignUpdate
                }
            };
        }
    }
CurrentUser.cs
 class CurrentUser:INotifyPropertyChanged
    {
        public event PropertyChangedEventHandler PropertyChanged;
        private string _firstname;
        private string _lastname;
        private DateTime _lastsignin;
        private DateTime _signupdate;
        private string _emailaddress;

        public CurrentUser()
        {

        }
        public CurrentUser(User user)
        {
            this.FirstName = user.FirstName;
            this.LastName = user.LastName;
            this.LastSignIn = user.LastSignIn;
            this.SignUpdate = user.SignUpdate;
            this.EmailAddress = user.EmailAddress;
        }
        private void NotifyPropertyChanged(string property)
        {
            if (PropertyChanged != null)
            {
                PropertyChanged(this, new PropertyChangedEventArgs(property));
            }
        }
        public string FirstName
        {
            get { return this._firstname; }
            set
            {
                _firstname = value;
                NotifyPropertyChanged("FirstName");
            }
        }
        public string LastName
        {
            get { return this._lastname; }
            set
            {
                _lastname = value;
                NotifyPropertyChanged("LastName");
            }
        }
        public DateTime LastSignIn
        {
            get { return this._lastsignin; }
            set
            {
                _lastsignin = value;
                NotifyPropertyChanged("LastSignIn");
            }
        }
        public DateTime SignUpdate
        {
            get { return this._signupdate; }
            set
            {
                _signupdate = value;
                NotifyPropertyChanged("SignUpdate");
            }
        }
        public string EmailAddress
        {
            get { return this._emailaddress; }
            set
            {
                _emailaddress = value;
                NotifyPropertyChanged("EmailAddress");
            }
        }
    }
