Simple DataBinding
===

I want to get into DataBinding and currently I'm stuck. I just can't get it to work. I read many tutorials, but honestly, none of the really helped me. I know what DataBinding is and why it's cool to use it, but I never came across a tutorial that showed me what to do **in my code**. They all just assume I know what I have to do there and only show the XAML side.

This is my class:

    public class Test : Window
    {
        public IList<String> data { get; set; }
        
        public Test() {
            data = new List<String>();
            InitializeComponents();
            data.Add("Hello");
            data.Add("World");
        }
    }

And here's my XAML

    <ListBox HorizontalAlignment="Left" Margin="6,6,0,6"
        Name="SourceDocumentsList" Width="202"
        ItemsSource="{Binding Source={x:Static Application.Current}, Path=data}" />

Yet, nothing is displayed when I render the window. How can something this easy fail? What am I doing wrong here?

The way I understand it, I tell the Listbox that it should bind itself to the `data` property of the currently running application, which is my class `Test`.
