How to create a custom observable collection using ConcurrentDictionary, INotifyCollectionChanged, INotifyPropertyChanged

I am trying to create an ObservableConcurrentDictionary. This object will be used in a multithreaded application, and it's data is used to populate a control via the controls ItemsSource property.

This is the implementation i have come up with:

public sealed class ObservableConcurrentDictionary<TKey, TValue> : ConcurrentDictionary<TKey, TValue>, INotifyCollectionChanged, INotifyPropertyChanged
{
    #region Constructors

    public ObservableConcurrentDictionary()
        : base()
    { 

    }

    public ObservableConcurrentDictionary(IEnumerable<KeyValuePair<TKey, TValue>> collection)
        : base(collection)
    { 

    }


    public ObservableConcurrentDictionary(IEqualityComparer<TKey> comparer)
        : base(comparer)
    { 

    }


    public ObservableConcurrentDictionary(int concurrencyLevel, int capacity)
        : base(concurrencyLevel, capacity)
    { 

    }


    public ObservableConcurrentDictionary(IEnumerable<KeyValuePair<TKey, TValue>> collection, IEqualityComparer<TKey> comparer)
        : base(collection, comparer)
    { 

    }


    public ObservableConcurrentDictionary(int concurrencyLevel, int capacity, IEqualityComparer<TKey> comparer)
        : base(concurrencyLevel, capacity, comparer)
    { 

    }

    public ObservableConcurrentDictionary(int concurrencyLevel, IEnumerable<KeyValuePair<TKey, TValue>> collection, IEqualityComparer<TKey> comparer)
        : base(concurrencyLevel, collection, comparer)
    {

    }

Unfortunately the solution does not work as intended - in fact, it doesn't work at all. Any ideas on what i am doing wrong or do any better solutions exist?

Please note i CAN'T USE ObservableCollection, hence i have to write my own Observable collection.

EDIT: The working version is below. Hope this helps someone else with a similar problem.

Quickly going through your code without any eplanation from your side I can only guess. I dont think setting Action on NotifyCollectionChangedEventArgs is enough. There are also NewItems, OldItems properties, that tell subscriber what items got changed.

Also note that, while those are collections, many WPF components support only single item change at a time through DataBinding.

I developed a tight version of an ObservableConcurrentDictionnary, please comment/suggest...

... where TValue : Object {use your class instead of Object...}
