wpf
Hi all New to wpf and therefore struggling a bit. I am putting together a quick demo before we go for the full implementation I have a treeview on the left with
Continent
Country
City structure
when a user select the city it should populate some textboxes in a tabcontrol on the right hand side
I made it sort of work but cannot make it work with composite objects.
In a nutshell can you spot what is wrong with my zaml or code. Why is not binding to a my CityDetails.ClubsCount or CityDetails.PubsCount?
What I am building is based on http://www.codeproject.com/KB/WPF/TreeViewWithViewModel.aspx
Thanks a lot for any suggestions or reply
DataModel
public class City
{
public City(string cityName)
{
CityName = cityName;
}
public string CityName { get; set; }
public string Population { get; set; }
public string Area { get; set; }
public CityDetails CityDetailsInfo { get; set; }
}
public class CityDetails
{
public CityDetails(int pubsCount,int clubsCount)
{
PubsCount = pubsCount;
ClubsCount = clubsCount;
}
public int ClubsCount { get; set; }
public int PubsCount { get; set; }
}
ViewModel
public class CityViewModel : TreeViewItemViewModel
{
private City _city;
private RelayCommand _testCommand;
public CityViewModel(City city, CountryViewModel countryViewModel):base(countryViewModel,false)
{
_city = city;
}
public string CityName
{
get { return _city.CityName; }
}
public string Area
{
get { return _city.Area; }
}
public string Population
{
get { return _city.Population; }
}
public City City
{
get { return _city; }
set { _city = value; }
}
public CityDetails CityDetailsInfo
{
get { return _city.CityDetailsInfo; }
set { _city.CityDetailsInfo = value; }
}
}
