Data binding main window's title to view model's property
I have a main window with following code:
<Window x:Class="CAMXSimulator.MainWindow"
xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
xmlns:View="clr-namespace:CAMXSimulator.View"
xmlns:ViewModel="clr-namespace:CAMXSimulator.ViewModel"
Icon="Resources/Images/Tractor.png"
Title="{Binding WindowTitle}"
Height="400" Width="600">
<Window.Resources>
<DataTemplate DataType="{x:Type ViewModel:LogParserViewModel}">
<View:LogView />
</DataTemplate>
</Window.Resources>
<Grid ShowGridLines="True">
<Grid.RowDefinitions>
<RowDefinition Height="Auto" />
<RowDefinition Height="Auto" />
<RowDefinition Height="*" />
</Grid.RowDefinitions>
<Border CornerRadius="5" BorderBrush="SteelBlue" BorderThickness="2" Grid.Row="2" Margin="0,5,5,0" >
<View:LogView />
</Border>
</Grid>
</Window>
in the LogParserViewModel.cs class i have the following

And I am trying to change the windows title by seeting it but nothing is happ开发者_StackOverflow社区ens any idea why ?
As I can't see from the current code what the DataContext of the main.xaml is, I'm going to take a guess that it is itself (not set to something else). I'm going to further go and say that your intent is to set the main.xaml's DataContext to a ViewModel:
XAML:
<Window x:Class="Namespace.MainWindow"
xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
Title="{Binding WindowTitle}">
<!-- YOUR XAML -->
</Window>
Code Behind:
public partial class MainWindow : Window
{
public MainWindow()
{
InitializeComponent();
DataContext = new MainWindowViewModel();
}
}
Where MainWindowViewModel.cs contains the property for the WindowTitle.
If you want a some other class to control the WindowTitle then you'll still need to have a ViewModel for your MainWindow (i.e. MainWindowViewModel.cs) that accepts messages somehow (events for tightly coupled, event aggregation for loosely coupled) to update that property.
Your property in ViewModel should be named WindowTitle
instead of CurrentProfileName
