How to put a unicode character in XAML?

binding, unicode, wpf, xaml

Solution

Since XAML is an XML file format you could try the XML character escape. So instead of writing `&\u2014`, you could write `—` instead.

Problem

I'm trying to do this: ``` <TextBlock Text="{Binding Path=Text, Converter={StaticResource stringFormatConverter}, ConverterParameter='&\u2014{0}'}" /> ``` To get a — to appear in front of the text. It doesn't work. What should I be doing here?
