Silverlight Binding - Binds when item is added but doesn't get updates.
- by dw
Hello,
I'm sorta at a loss to why this doesn't work considering I got it from working code, just added a new level of code, but here's what I have. Basically, when I bind the ViewModel to a list, the binding picks up when Items are added to a collection. However, if an update occurs to the item that is bound, it doesn't get updated. Basically, I have an ObservableCollection that contains a custom class with a string value. When that string value gets updated I need it to update the List.
Right now, when I debug, the list item does get updated correctly, but the UI doesn't reflect the change. If I set the bound item to a member variable and null it out then reset it to the right collection it will work, but not desired behavior.
Here is a mockup of the code, hopefully someone can tell me where I am wrong. Also, I've tried implementing INofityPropertyChanged at every level in the code below.
public class Class1
{
public string ItemName;
}
public class Class2
{
private Class2 _items;
private Class2() //Singleton
{
_items = new ObservableCollection<Class1>();
}
public ObservableCollection<Class1> Items
{
get { return _items; }
internal set
{
_items = value;
}
}
}
public class Class3
{
private Class2 _Class2Instnace;
private Class3()
{
_Class2Instnace = Class2.Instance;
}
public ObservableCollection<Class1> Items2
{
get {return _Class2Instnace.Items; }
}
}
public class MyViewModel : INofityPropertyChanged
{
private Class3 _myClass3;
private MyViewModel()
{
_myClass3 = new Class3();
}
private BindingItems
{
get { return _myClass3.Items2; } // Binds when adding items but not when a Class1.ItemName gets updated.
}
}
