Caliburn: how to bind hosted controls to ViewModel properties

Question

I created a control which is hosting two content controls. I would like Caliburn to resolve the View/ViewModel for me but Caliburn ignores the hosted/inner ContentControls with the name SignalGenerator (see below). Any idea how to get around that problem?

        <cc:HorizontalSplitterLayoutControl >

            <cc:HorizontalSplitterLayoutControl.UpperContent>
                <Label Content="Blockdiagram" />
            </cc:HorizontalSplitterLayoutControl.UpperContent>

            <cc:HorizontalSplitterLayoutControl.LowerContent>

                <ContentControl x:Name="SignalGenerator"/>

            </cc:HorizontalSplitterLayoutControl.LowerContent>
        </cc:HorizontalSplitterLayoutControl>

Answer 1

I haven't tried myself, but you should be able to do something like the following:

<ContentControl x:Name="SignalGenerator" cal:View.Model="{Binding}" />

Answer 2

In another project I had to do it like this:

<ContentControl cal:View.Model="{Binding SignalGenerator}" />
