Cannot bind combobox to an array

I cannot seem to bind my ComboBox to an array.

I have this ObjectDataProvider:

<ObjectDataProvider x:Key="TypeFromEnum" MethodName="GetValues" ObjectType="{x:Type system:Enum}">
    <ObjectDataProvider.MethodParameters>
        <x:Type TypeName="property:Property:PropertyType"/>
    </ObjectDataProvider.MethodParameters>
</ObjectDataProvider>

And this binding:

<DataTemplate x:Key="TypeCellTemplate">
    <ComboBox ItemsSource="{Binding Path={StaticResource TypeFromEnum}}" SelectedItem="{Binding Path=Type}"/>
</DataTemplate>

But I get the error:

Invalid resource type: expected type is 'PropertyPath', actual type is 'Array'.

And when I run my program and try to open the window with this ComboBox, then it crashes:

A first chance exception of type 'System.Windows.Markup.XamlParseException' occurred in PresentationFramework.dll Additional information: 'Provide value on 'System.Windows.Markup.TypeExtension' threw an exception.' Line number '8' and line position '12'.

If there is a handler for this exception, the program may be safely continued.

Set ObjectDataProvider as Source of Binding not Path:

<ComboBox ItemsSource="{Binding Source={StaticResource TypeFromEnum}}" />
