Setting multiple enum flags in XAML

Is there any way to set multiple enum flags (that are traditionally separated by | in codebehind) in XAML? I tried something like:

<ns:SomeControl Flags="FlagA|FlagB" />

but that didn't work.

You can use the accepted answer code

<ns:SomeControl Flags="FlagA,FlagB" />

But you also need add a TypeConverter attribute on the property to make it work

[TypeConverter(typeof(EnumConverter))] //yeah, this line
Public MyEnum Flags
{ ...

WPF does support this through a type converter. It can be done by using a comma in between enum values:

<ns:SomeControl Flags="FlagA,FlagB" />
