You cannot use methods in XAML.
This method is a convenience method for calling BindingOperations..::.SetBinding, which passes the current instance as the DependencyObject, and creates a new Binding based on the provided path parameter. This signature is more convenient if you are establishing a simple default binding. If you need to specify any binding properties to non-default conditions, or want to use a MultiBinding or PriorityBinding,you should use the SetBinding(DependencyProperty, BindingBase) signature.
The following example sets a binding using a specific path.
myDataObject = new MyData(System.DateTime.Now);
root.DataContext = myDataObject;
myText.SetBinding(TextBlock.TextProperty, "MyDataProperty");
