I have a WorkspaceViewModel that handles addition and deletion of tab items dynamically through an ObservableCollection. Each time a tab is connected to a PayslipModel, all bindings work fine but one problem I am having is that;
I have a save button in the UserControl who's DataContext is set to WorkspaceViewModel and I would like to save whatever info is being displayed in the selected tab. Now, each time a tab is added, a new instance of PayslipModel is created, which is exactly what I want because I don't want bindings to be shared for all tabs. However, I am unable to save what is being displayed since PayslipModel has multiple instances, therefore nothing is returned (temporarily using MessageBox to test if info is being retrieved) when I hit save.
I created a diagram to better explain my situation:
Is it possible to access the current instance when a tab is selected or cycle through all instances and do something like batch saving?
This is a working example which shows one of the possiblities:
View
<TabControl DataContext="{Binding}" ItemsSource="{Binding Models}" >
<TabControl.ItemTemplate>
<DataTemplate>
<TextBlock Text="{Binding Name}" >
</TextBlock>
</DataTemplate>
</TabControl.ItemTemplate>
<TabControl.ContentTemplate>
<DataTemplate>
<DockPanel>
<Button DockPanel.Dock="Top" Content="Click Me" Command="{Binding DataContext.PCommand,
RelativeSource={RelativeSource Mode=FindAncestor, AncestorType=TabControl}}"
CommandParameter="{Binding Desc}"/>
<TextBlock Text="{Binding Desc}" >
</TextBlock>
</DockPanel>
</DataTemplate>
</TabControl.ContentTemplate>
</TabControl>
Model View
public class ModelView
{
public ModelView()
{
_models = new ObservableCollection<Model>();
_pCommand = new Command(DoParameterisedCommand);
}
ObservableCollection<Model> _models;
public ObservableCollection<Model> Models { get { return _models; } }
private void DoParameterisedCommand(object parameter)
{
MessageBox.Show("Parameterised Command; Parameter is '" +
parameter.ToString() + "'.");
}
Command _pCommand;
public Command PCommand
{
get { return _pCommand; }
}
}
Model
public class Model : INotifyPropertyChanged
{
string _desc;
public string Desc { get { return _desc; } set { _desc = value; RaisePropertyChanged("Desc"); } }
string _name;
public string Name { get { return _name; } set { _name = value; RaisePropertyChanged("Name"); } }
public event PropertyChangedEventHandler PropertyChanged;
void RaisePropertyChanged(string propname)
{
PropertyChanged?.Invoke(this, new PropertyChangedEventArgs(propname));
}
}
Command
public class Command : ICommand
{
public Command(Action<object> parameterizedAction, bool canExecute = true)
{
_parameterizedAction = parameterizedAction;
_canExecute = canExecute;
}
Action<object> _parameterizedAction = null;
bool _canExecute = false;
public bool CanExecute
{
get { return _canExecute; }
set
{
if (_canExecute != value)
{
_canExecute = value;
CanExecuteChanged?.Invoke(this, EventArgs.Empty);
}
}
}
public event EventHandler CanExecuteChanged;
bool ICommand.CanExecute(object parameter)
{
return _canExecute;
}
void ICommand.Execute(object parameter)
{
this.DoExecute(parameter);
}
public virtual void DoExecute(object param)
{ if (_parameterizedAction != null)
_parameterizedAction(param);
else
throw new Exception();
}
}
Use this to initialize:
public MainWindow()
{
InitializeComponent();
ModelView mv = new ModelView();
mv.Models.Add(new Model() { Name = "a", Desc = "aaa" });
mv.Models.Add(new Model() { Name = "b" , Desc = "bbb"});
mv.Models.Add(new Model() { Name = "c", Desc = "cccc" });
this.DataContext = mv;
