wpf - ¿Cómo se vincula un CollectionContainer a una colección en un modelo de vista?

vb.net xaml

Question

Tengo un modelo de vista con una propiedad que expone una colección de cosas. Tengo un ComboBox cuya propiedad ItemsSource está vinculada a esta colección. Ahora el usuario puede seleccionar de la lista.

Quiero permitir que el usuario borre la selección, así que quiero agregar un elemento (que sea nulo) a ComboBox. Es bastante sencillo.

Decidí probar y usar una CompositeCollection para ItemsSource para poder agregar los elementos de la lista existente al ComboBox, así como el elemento nulo adicional.

Después de luchar con esto por un tiempo, decidí regresar a la documentación de la clase CompositeCollection . Copié su ejemplo y lo modifiqué para usar un modelo de vista en lugar de recursos estáticos.

Descubrí que no aparecen elementos en la lista cuando enlace el CollectionContainer a la lista expuesta por ViewModel.

No estoy seguro de cómo solucionar este problema y estoy buscando algún consejo sobre este tema.

Aquí está mi código XAML:

<Window Background="CornflowerBlue" xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation" xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml" xmlns:c="clr-namespace:TryingWPF" x:Class="CompositeCollections" Title="CompositeCollections" SizeToContent="WidthAndHeight">
<Window.Resources>
<c:CompositeCollectionVM x:Key="CompositeCollectionVM"/>
<XmlDataProvider x:Key="GreekHeroesData" XPath="GreekHeroes/Hero">
<x:XData>
<GreekHeroes xmlns="">
<Hero Name="Jason" />
<Hero Name="Hercules" />
<Hero Name="Bellerophon" />
<Hero Name="Theseus" />
<Hero Name="Odysseus" />
<Hero Name="Perseus" />
</GreekHeroes>
</x:XData>
</XmlDataProvider>
<DataTemplate DataType="{x:Type c:GreekGod}">
<TextBlock Text="{Binding Path=Name}" Foreground="Gold"/>
</DataTemplate>
<DataTemplate DataType="Hero">
<TextBlock Text="{Binding XPath=@Name}" Foreground="Cyan"/>
</DataTemplate>
</Window.Resources>
<StackPanel DataContext="{StaticResource CompositeCollectionVM}">
<TextBlock FontSize="18" FontWeight="Bold" Margin="10" HorizontalAlignment="Center" Foreground="WhiteSmoke">Trying Composite Collections</TextBlock>
<DockPanel>
<ListBox Name="myListBox" Height="300" Background="#99333333">
<ListBox.ItemsSource>
<CompositeCollection>
<CollectionContainer Collection="{Binding GreekGods}" />
<CollectionContainer Collection="{Binding Source={StaticResource GreekHeroesData}}" />
<ListBoxItem Foreground="Magenta">Other Listbox Item 1</ListBoxItem>
<ListBoxItem Foreground="Magenta">Other Listbox Item 2</ListBoxItem>
</CompositeCollection>
</ListBox.ItemsSource>
</ListBox>
<ListBox ItemsSource="{Binding GreekGods}" Background="#99333333" Margin="5,0" HorizontalAlignment="Right">
</ListBox>
</DockPanel>
</StackPanel>
</Window>

(Como se puede ver cuando enlace el ItemsSource del segundo ListBox a la propiedad de la lista ... aparecen los elementos)

Y aquí está mi código VB.NET que hace que el código XAML funcione:

Public Class CompositeCollections
End Class
Public Class GreekGod
Public Property GreekName
Public Property Name
Public Property Description
Public Sub New(ByVal greekName As String, ByVal englishName As String, ByVal description As String)
Me.GreekName = greekName
Me.Name = englishName
Me.Description = description
End Sub
End Class
Public Class CompositeCollectionVM
Public Property GreekGods As System.Collections.ObjectModel.ObservableCollection(Of GreekGod)
Public Sub New()
GreekGods = New System.Collections.ObjectModel.ObservableCollection(Of GreekGod)

Answer 1

Un IMultiValueConverter es un buen IMultiValueConverter para CompositeCollection pero no para su caso específico donde agrega cosas en xaml.

Convertidor:

using System;
using System.Collections;
using System.Globalization;
using System.Windows.Data;
public class CompositeCollectionConverter : IMultiValueConverter
{
public static readonly CompositeCollectionConverter Default = new CompositeCollectionConverter();
public object Convert(object[] values, Type targetType, object parameter, CultureInfo culture)
{
var compositeCollection = new CompositeCollection();
foreach (var value in values)
{
var enumerable = value as IEnumerable;
if (enumerable != null)
{
compositeCollection.Add(new CollectionContainer { Collection = enumerable });
}
else
{
compositeCollection.Add(value);
}
}
return compositeCollection;
}
public object[] ConvertBack(object value, Type[] targetTypes, object parameter, CultureInfo culture)
{
throw new NotSupportedException("CompositeCollectionConverter ony supports oneway bindings");
}
}

Uso:

<ListBox>
<ListBox.ItemsSource>
<MultiBinding Converter="{x:Static local:CompositeCollectionConverter.Default}">
<Binding Path="Col1" />
<Binding Path="Col2" />
...
</MultiBinding>
</ListBox.ItemsSource>
...
</ListBox>

Answer 2

CompositeCollection no tiene DataContext , los enlaces en CollectionContainers no funcionarán si se vinculan directamente a una propiedad (que implícitamente usa DataContext como fuente).

Necesita especificar explícitamente una fuente, le sugiero que nombre el control con su DataContext y use x:Reference para obtenerlo ( ElementName no funcionará) o usa una StaticResource , por ej.

<CollectionContainer Collection="{Binding DataContext.GreekGods, Source={x:Reference myStackPanel}}"/>

<CollectionContainer Collection="{Binding GreekGods, Source={StaticResource CompositeCollectionVM}}"/>

Tenga en cuenta que al usar x:Reference el compilador lo desplaza fácilmente con errores de dependencia cíclica, para evitar que coloque su CompositeCollection en los recursos del control al que hace referencia, y luego lo inserta donde corresponda utilizando la extensión de marcado StaticResource .
