Caliburn Micro：如何在 Windows 手机 silverlight 中导航

Question

i am trying to use Caliburn Micro in my windows phone 7 project. But i got a nullreferenceexception when navigate the page.

namespace Caliburn.Micro.HelloWP7 {
    public class MainPageViewModel {
        readonly INavigationService navigationService;

        public MainPageViewModel(INavigationService navigationService) {
            this.navigationService = navigationService;
        }

        public void GotoPageTwo() {
            /*navigationService.UriFor<PivotPageViewModel>()
                .WithParam(x => x.NumberOfTabs, 5)
                .Navigate();*/
            navigationService.UriFor<Page1ViewModel>().Navigate();
        }
    }
}

namespace Caliburn.Micro.HelloWP7
{
    public class Page1ViewModel
    {
         readonly INavigationService navigationService;

         public Page1ViewModel(INavigationService navigationService)
         {
            this.navigationService = navigationService;
        }
    }
}

can anyone tell me what's the problem of my code? thanks in advance.

here is bootstrapper:

public class ScheduleBootstrapper : PhoneBootstrapper
{
    PhoneContainer container;

    protected override void Configure()
    {
        container = new PhoneContainer(RootFrame);

        container.RegisterPhoneServices();
        container.PerRequest<MainPageViewModel>();
        container.PerRequest<MainContentViewModel>();
        container.PerRequest<Page1ViewModel>();
        AddCustomConventions();
    }

    static void AddCustomConventions()
    {
        ConventionManager.AddElementConvention<Pivot>(Pivot.ItemsSourceProperty, "SelectedItem", "SelectionChanged").ApplyBinding =
            (viewModelType, path, property, element, convention) =>
            {
                if (ConventionManager
                    .GetElementConvention(typeof(ItemsControl))
                    .ApplyBinding(viewModelType, path, property, element, convention))
                {
                    ConventionManager
                        .ConfigureSelectedItem(element, Pivot.SelectedItemProperty, viewModelType, path);
                    ConventionManager
                        .ApplyHeaderTemplate(element, Pivot.HeaderTemplateProperty, viewModelType);
                    return true;
                }

                return false;
            };

        ConventionManager.AddElementConvention<Panorama>(Panorama.ItemsSourceProperty, "SelectedItem", "SelectionChanged").ApplyBinding =
            (viewModelType, path, property, element, convention) =>
            {
                if (ConventionManager
                    .GetElementConvention(typeof(ItemsControl))
                    .ApplyBinding(viewModelType, path, property, element, convention))
                {
                    ConventionManager
                        .ConfigureSelectedItem(element, Panorama.SelectedItemProperty, viewModelType, path);
                    ConventionManager
                        .ApplyHeaderTemplate(element, Panorama.HeaderTemplateProperty, viewModelType);
                    return true;
                }

                return false;
            };
    }

    protected override object GetInstance(Type service, string key)
    {
        return container.GetInstance(service, key);
    }

    protected override IEnumerable<object> GetAllInstances(Type service)
    {
        return container.GetAllInstances(service);
    }

    protected override void BuildUp(object instance)
    {
        container.BuildUp(instance);
    }
}

I had this too, and tracked it down as follows:

As you know, Caliburn.Micro uses convention-over-configuration to locate Views for ViewModels, and vice-versa, which means we need to follow the conventions. My mistake was to have the namespace 's inconsistent for the View and ViewModel

In my case, I had

MyWP7App.DetailsViewModel , and

MyWP7App.Views.DetailsView

--> I renamed the VM's namespace to be MyWP7App.ViewModels.DetailsViewModel , and it worked out fine. I think I could have moved the view into MyWP7App.DetailsView for a good result, too...

Under the covers

the call to Navigate() invokes DeterminePageName() which, in turn, invokes ViewLocator.LocateTypeForModelType

This, like the rest of CM is overridable, but the default implementation looks like this:

public static Func<Type, DependencyObject, object, Type> LocateTypeForModelType = (modelType, displayLocation, context) => {
    var viewTypeName = modelType.FullName.Substring(
        0,
        modelType.FullName.IndexOf("`") < 0
            ? modelType.FullName.Length
            : modelType.FullName.IndexOf("`")
        );

    Func<string, string> getReplaceString;
    if (context == null) {
        getReplaceString = r => { return r; };
    }
    else {
        getReplaceString = r => {
            return Regex.Replace(r, Regex.IsMatch(r, "Page$") ? "Page$" : "View$", ContextSeparator + context);
        };
    }

    var viewTypeList = NameTransformer.Transform(viewTypeName, getReplaceString);
    var viewType = (from assembly in AssemblySource.Instance
                    from type in assembly.GetExportedTypes()
                    where viewTypeList.Contains(type.FullName)
                    select type).FirstOrDefault();

    return viewType;
};

If you follow the debugger through, you end up with a collection viewTypeList that contains MyWP7App.DetailsView , and a type whose full name is MyWP7App.Views.DetailsView , and the viewType returned is therefore null... this is the cause of the NullReferenceException.

I'm 99% sure the NameTransformer.Transform call will perform a pattern-match and transform the ViewModels in the namespace of the VM to Views in the namespace of the View it's trying to locate...
