WPF understanding Selector.IsSynchronizedWithCurrentItem
Do not know if this is specific to the Infragistics xamDataGrid but here goes the question:
Infragistics xamDataGrid exposes a property IsSynchronizedWithCurrentItem, which according to their documentation, synchronizes ActiveRecord with current item of a datasource that implements ICollectionView.
I have the following MasterDetails window with details (ContentControl) content based on the type of objects bound to the grid:
<DockPanel Name="dockPanel" LastChildFill="True">
<Grid>
<Grid.RowDefinitions>
<RowDefinition/>
<RowDefinition Height="5" MaxHeight="5"/>
<RowDefinition/>
</Grid.RowDefinitions>
<igDP:XamDataGrid
Name="dataGrid"
IsSynchronizedWithCurrentItem="True"
SelectedItemsChanged="dataGrid_SelectedItemsChanged">
</igDP:XamDataGrid>
<GridSplitter
Style="{StaticResource blueHrizontalGridSplitter}"
Grid.Row="1" Grid.ColumnSpan="2"
BorderThickness="1" Margin="1,0"
HorizontalAlignment="Stretch" />
<ContentControl Grid.Row="2" Name="contentControl" />
</Grid>
</DockPanel>
In code behind, I am attempting to establish a link between 开发者_C百科the current item of the grid's data source to the DataContext of the details control in my MasterDetailsWindow's constructor as follows:
if (detailsControl != null)
{
var fwDControl = detailsControl as FrameworkElement;
if (fwDControl != null)
{
var b = new Binding() { ElementName = "dataGrid", Path = new PropertyPath("DataSource") };
fwDControl.SetBinding(DataContextProperty, b);
}
contentControl.Content = detailsControl;
}
else
{
var b = new Binding() { ElementName = "dataGrid", Path = new PropertyPath("DataSource") };
contentControl.SetBinding(ContentProperty, b);
b = new Binding("DataDetailsTemplate");
contentControl.SetBinding(ContentTemplateProperty, b);
}
When constructing a instance of the MasterDetails, the caller needs to provide either a detailsControl object or a string representing the URL to DataTemplate. If a detailsControl is provided, I execute code that checks if details is not null. Otherwise, I assume DataDetailsTemplate is provided instead.
I would have doubted my thinking here but if I construct an instance of the MasterDetails window, with a URL that resolves to the following dataTemplate:
<DataTemplate x:Key="LogDetailsTemplate">
<Grid Margin="5,5,5,0">
<TextBox Text="{Binding Message}" TextWrapping="WrapWithOverflow"/>
</Grid>
</DataTemplate>
selecting an item in the grid, displays the selected object's corresponding Message property in the TextBox.
However, if I provide a custom detailsControl object that derives from UserControl, selecting an item in the grid, does not cause change the DataContext of my detailsControl. Why is this?
TIA.
Whoa there!!!!! I may be wrong but it looks like you've come from a WinForms background and are trying to to do things in WPF the way you would for WinForms.
The good news is, you don't have to: Master detail can be handled using a simple forwardslash. In the example below, look at the bindings in MainWindow.xaml - the forwardslash indicates the currently selected item.
MODELS
public class Country
{
public string Name { get; set; }
public int Population { get; set; }
}
public class Continent
{
public string Name { get; set; }
public int Area { get; set; }
public IList<Country> Countries { get; set; }
}
VIEWMODELS
public class MainViewModel
{
private ObservableCollection<ContinentViewModel> _continents;
public ObservableCollection<ContinentViewModel> Continents
{
get { return _continents; }
set
{
_continents = value;
ContinentView = new ListCollectionView(_continents);
ContinentView.CurrentChanged += (sender, agrs) => CurrentContinent = ContinentView.CurrentItem as ContinentViewModel;
}
}
public ListCollectionView ContinentView {get; private set;}
/// <summary>
/// Use this to determine the current item in the list
/// if not willing to use \ notation in the binding.
/// </summary>
public ContinentViewModel CurrentContinent { get; set; }
}
public class ContinentViewModel
{
private Continent _model;
public Continent Model
{
get { return _model; }
set
{
_model = value;
Countries = _model.Countries
.Select(p => new CountryViewModel { Model = p })
.ToList();
}
}
public string Name
{
get { return Model.Name; }
}
public int Area
{
get { return Model.Area; }

public List<CountryViewModel> Countries { get; private set; }

public class CountryViewModel

public string Name
