MVVM - RaisePropertyChanged turning code into a mess
- by vidalsasoon
New to MVVM so please excuse my ignorance.
I THINK i'm using it right but I find my ViewModel has too many of these:
RaisePropertyChanged("SomeProperty")
Every time I set a property I have to raise that damned property changed.
I miss the days where I could just go:
public int SomeInteger { get; private set;}
These days I have to stick the "RaisePropertyChanged" in everywhere or my UI does not reflect the changes :(
Am I doing it wrong or are other people getting annoyed with the excessive number of magic strings and old school property setters?
Should I be using dependency properties instead? (I doubt that would help the code bloat anyway)
Despite these problems I still think MVVM is the way to go so I guess that's something.
