deal with BingToken

Hello everyone.

I used Bing Map with the property bing token. but the map doesn't view.

private void MyMap_Loaded(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
        {
            foreach (Layer layer in MyMap.Layers)
                if (layer is TileLayer)
                    (layer as TileLayer).Token = (Application.Current as Silverlight_BingToken.App).BingToken;
        }

How can i define BingToken property in the code behind

<esri:Map Background="White" Name="MyMap" Loaded="MyMap_Loaded">
            <esri:Map.Layers>
                <bing:TileLayer ID="BingLayerLoad" LayerStyle="Road" ServerType="Production" Token="MyToken" />
            </esri:Map.Layers>
        </esri:Map>

Any advice?

The simplest way is to add the bing layer in the map by code after getting the token.
it's done that way in the bing samples.

The problem with the event Map.Loaded is that the layers are already on the way to initializating and the initialization fails if the token is wrong or not set.
