Hi Guys,

I've spent far too much time with this and can't find the mistake. Maybe I'm missing something very obvious or I may have just found a bug in the WPF Element Host for Winforms.

I am binding a ListView to a ObeservableList that lives on my ProductListViewModel.

I'm trying to implement searching for the ListView with the general Idea to just change the ObservableList with a new list that is filtered.

Anyway, the ListView Binding code looks like this:

<ListView ItemsSource="{Binding Path=Products}" SelectedItem="{Binding Path=SelectedItem}" SelectionMode="Single">
    <ListView.ItemContainerStyle>
        <Style TargetType="{x:Type ListViewItem}">
            <Setter Property="IsSelected" Value="{Binding IsSelected, Mode=TwoWay}"></Setter>
        </Style>
    </ListView.ItemContainerStyle>
    <ListView.ItemTemplate>
        <DataTemplate>
            <TextBlock Text="{Binding Name}"></TextBlock>
        </DataTemplate>
    </ListView.ItemTemplate>
</ListView>

And the ViewModel code is as vanilla as it can get:

private ObservableCollection<ProductViewModel> products;
public ObservableCollection<ProductViewModel> Products
{
    get { return products; }
    private set
    {
        if (products != value)
        {
            products = value;
            OnPropertyChanged("Products");
        }
    }
}

Now the problem here: Once I debug into my OnPropertyChanged method, I can see that there are no subscribers to the PropertyChanged event (it's null), so nothing happens on the UI.. I already tried Mode=TwoWay and other Binding modes, it seems I can't get the ListView to subscribe to the ItemsSource...

Can anyone help me with this? I'm just about to forget about the ElemenHost and just do it in Winforms

greetings Daniel
