I have this object wrapper, whose instances I populate the collection with:
public class Multimedia : INotifyPropertyChanged
{
//... constructor
//... getters and setters for the properties
public void OnCollectionChanged(object sender, NotifyCollectionChangedEventArgs e)
{
ObservableCollection<Multimedia> objSender = sender as ObservableCollection<Multimedia>;
NotifyCollectionChangedAction action = e.Action;
}
}
The collection:
public class MultiMediaList : ObservableCollection<Multimedia>
{
//... constructor with creating several default objects of Multimedia
public void addMedia(string title, string artist, string genre, MediaType type)
{
this.Add(new Multimedia(title, artist, genre, type));
}
}
So, I have a ListBox that is bound to the collection. When I start up the app, the default values are shown. But when I add a new entry to the collection - the ListBox does not get updated with the new item.
I guess I have not implemented correctly the OnCollectionChanged
method, but I cannot grasp an idea of how to do it, from the examples that I have seen online, because every case is so different.
EDIT: Code-behind binding of the Collection and the ListBox:
public partial class MainWindow : Window
{
MultiMediaList mediaList;
public MainWindow()
{
InitializeComponent();
mediaList = new MultiMediaList();
LB_media.ItemsSource = mediaList;
}
//...
}
XAML:
<ListBox Name="LB_media" DisplayMemberPath="Title" ... />
