WPF Binding Programmatically

I am attempting to convert this xaml binding to it's C# counterpart for various reasons:

<ListView x:Name="eventListView" Grid.Column="0" Grid.Row="1" Background="LightGray" BorderThickness="0">
    <local:EventCell x:Name="cell" Width="{Binding ActualWidth, Converter={StaticResource ListViewWidthConverter}, ElementName=eventListView, Mode=OneWay}"/>
</ListView>

I've read a lot of questions already that had similar problems and came up with this code:

Binding b = new Binding();
b.Source = eventListView;
b.Path = new PropertyPath(cell.Width);
b.Converter = new ListViewWidthConverter();
b.Mode = BindingMode.OneWay;
cell.SetBinding(ListView.ActualWidthProperty, b);

But the C# code won't compile, I am pretty lost as to why.
