I have a senario here... (Extremely sorry writing such a long post)

I have are TreeView(Bound to the observable collection of Phones(Different types)) i have a contentCOntrol whose COntent Binding is set to the selectedItem for TreeView

Code....

 <Border Grid.Column="2">
            <ContentC开发者_StackOverflow中文版ontrol Name="userControlContentControl"
                            Content="{Binding ElementName=PhoneTreeViewUserControl,
                                              Path=SelectedItem,
                                              Converter={StaticResource ResourceKey=rightDisplayConverter}}">
                <ContentControl.Resources>
                    <DataTemplate DataType="{x:Type EntityLayer:Settings}">
                        <ViewLayer:SettingsView />
                    </DataTemplate>                       
                    <DataTemplate DataType="{x:Type EntityLayer:CandyBarPhones}">
                        <ViewLayer:CandyBarPhonesListView />
                    </DataTemplate>                        
                    <DataTemplate DataType="{x:Type EntityLayer:CandyBarPhone}">
                        <ViewLayer:CandyBarPhoneView />
                    </DataTemplate>
                    <DataTemplate DataType="{x:Type EntityLayer:QwertyPhones}">
                        <ViewLayer:QwertyPhonesListView />
                    </DataTemplate>
                    <DataTemplate DataType="{x:Type EntityLayer:QuertyPhone}">
                        <ViewLayer:QuertyPhoneView />
                    </DataTemplate>
                                       </ContentControl.Resources>
            </ContentControl>
        </Border>

Problem is that when i select a Phone from TreeView(a specific View is populated from contentcontrol) I wish to pass UniqueId(PhoneBase has that Property) to my ViewModel of View and also fire a function in viewModel so that it can get Data from BusinessLayer... and Initialize the ViewModel and all its Properties.

CodeBehind for UserControl

region class - QuertyPhoneView

/// <summary>
///   Interaction logic for ProductIdEditorView.xaml
/// </summary>
public partial class QuertyPhoneView : BaseUserControl
{
    QertyPhoneViewModel quertyPhoneViewModel;
    #region Constructor

    /// <summary>
    /// </summary>
    public ProductIdEditorView()
    {
        InitializeComponent();
        quertyPhoneViewModel =
            new quertyPhoneViewModel ();
        this.DataContext = quertyPhoneViewModel;
    }

    # endregion
}

#endregion

Also in ViewModel I have Messenger Registrations .... but Every time i selected another phone type and then select the former type the messenger are registered again without deregistering Earlier... (I dont have any Deregister method in Messenger, using Marlon's Mediator V2) and its making application Very Slow if used for an 15-20 min or so

I am absolutly Puzzled what to do... ANy help in this regrad would be GR8!!! Thanks

Why not have your ParentViewModel track the SelectedItem instead of having your View do it? I personally hate doing any kind of business logic in my View. It should just be a pretty layer that sits on top of my ViewModels to make it easier for the user to interact with them.

For example, your PhonesViewModel might have:

// Leaving out get/set method details for simplicity
Observable<QuertyPhone> Phones { get; set; }
QuertyPhone SelectedPhone { get; set; }

ICommand SaveSelectedPhoneCommand { get; }
ICommand CancelSelectedPhoneCommand { get; }

Your View would simply look something like this:

<DockPanel>
    <TreeView DockPanel.Dock="Left"
              ItemsSource="{Binding Phones}"
              SelectedItem="{Binding SelectedPhone}" />

    <StackPanel DockPanel.Dock="Bottom" Orientation="Horizontal">
        <Button Content="{Binding SaveCommand}" />
        <Button Content="{Binding CancelCommand}" />
    </StackPanel>

    <ContentControl Content="{Binding SelectedPhone} />
</DockPanel>

I would leave the validation in your QuertyPhone model, but would move the data access to the ViewModel. In my opinion, your models should just be dumb data objects. You also only have to register for messaging in a single place (your ViewModel), and if you need to do anything when the SelectedPhone changes, simply do it in the PropertyChanged event.

As a side note, I forget if you can bind a TreeView's SelectedItem or not, but if not you can either use a ListBox styled to look like a TreeView, or in the past I've added IsSelected properties to my TreeView data objects, and bound the TreeViewItem.IsSelected property to that.
