Handling PropertyChanged on a non-ui object

Question

In a data binding scenario, is it possible for a non-ui object to receive a PropertyChanged event?

I think a similar question is being asked here: http://simplemvvmtoolkit.codeplex.com/discussions/403567

Answer 1

Hi,

How about we think this question from another way.

We can fire a event in the Set function when new value is different from the old value. This event will call a delegate, so that we can write notification codes in this delegate.

Please take a look of Using Event and delegate section in this blog

Also you can try to semaphore to do this.

Best regards,
Jesse

Thanks,

I was able to avoid this after refactoring my code. I was reorganising my code for MVVM, and it initially looked like I needed to handle messages in the viewmodel, but after refactoring, it wasn't required.
