Hi, I use in WFP Caliburn.Micro Framework.
I need bindable richTextbox for Document property. I found many ways how do it bindable richTextBox.
But I have one problem. From parent window I open child window. Child window consist bindable richTextBox user control.
After I close child window and use memory profiler view class with bindabelrichTextBox control and view model class is still hanging in memory. - this cause memory leaks.
If I use richTextBox from .NET Framework or richTextBox from Extended WPF Toolkit it doesn’t cause this memory leak problem.
I can’t identified problem in bindable richTextBox class.
Here is ist class for bindable richTextBox:
Base class can be from .NET or Extended toolkit.
/// <summary>
/// Represents a bindable rich editing control which operates on System.Windows.Documents.FlowDocument
/// objects.
/// </summary>
public class BindableRichTextBox : RichTextBox
{
/// <summary>
/// Identifies the <see cref="Document"/> dependency property.
/// </summary>
public static readonly DependencyProperty DocumentProperty = DependencyProperty.Register("Document",
typeof(FlowDocument), typeof(BindableRichTextBox));
/// <summary>
/// Initializes a new instance of the <see cref="BindableRichTextBox"/> class.
/// </summary>
public BindableRichTextBox()
: base()
{
}
/// <summary>
/// Initializes a new instance of the <see cref="BindableRichTextBox"/> class.
/// </summary>
/// <param title="document">A <see cref="T:System.Windows.Documents.FlowDocument"></see> to be added as the initial contents of the new <see cref="T:System.Windows.Controls.BindableRichTextBox"></see>.</param>
public BindableRichTextBox(FlowDocument document)
: base(document)
{
}
/// <summary>
/// Raises the <see cref="E:System.Windows.FrameworkElement.Initialized"></see> event. This method is invoked whenever <see cref="P:System.Windows.FrameworkElement.IsInitialized"></see> is set to true internally.
/// </summary>
/// <param title="e">The <see cref="T:System.Windows.RoutedEventArgs"></see> that contains the event data.</param>
protected override void OnInitialized(EventArgs e)
{
// Hook up to get notified when DocumentProperty changes.
DependencyPropertyDescriptor descriptor = DependencyPropertyDescriptor.FromProperty(DocumentProperty, typeof(BindableRichTextBox));
descriptor.AddValueChanged(this, delegate
{
// If the underlying value of the dependency property changes,
// update the underlying document, also.
base.Document = (FlowDocument)GetValue(DocumentProperty);
});
// By default, we support updates to the source when focus is lost (or, if the LostFocus
// trigger is specified explicity. We don't support the PropertyChanged trigger right now.
this.LostFocus += new RoutedEventHandler(BindableRichTextBox_LostFocus);
base.OnInitialized(e);
}
/// <summary>
/// Handles the LostFocus event of the BindableRichTextBox control.
/// </summary>
/// <param title="sender">The source of the event.</param>
/// <param title="e">The <see cref="System.Windows.RoutedEventArgs"/> instance containing the event data.</param>
void BindableRichTextBox_LostFocus(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
{
// If we have a binding that is set for LostFocus or Default (which we are specifying as default)
// then update the source.
Binding binding = BindingOperations.GetBinding(this, DocumentProperty);
if (binding.UpdateSourceTrigger == UpdateSourceTrigger.Default ||
binding.UpdateSourceTrigger == UpdateSourceTrigger.LostFocus)
{
BindingOperations.GetBindingExpression(this, DocumentProperty).UpdateSource();
}
}

public new FlowDocument Document

set { SetValue(DocumentProperty, value); }
}
}
Thank fro help and advice.
Qucik example:
Child window with .NET richTextBox
<Window x:Class="WpfApplication2.Window1"
xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
Title="Window1" Height="300" Width="300">
<Grid>
<RichTextBox Background="Green"
VerticalScrollBarVisibility="Auto"
HorizontalScrollBarVisibility="Auto"
FontSize="13"
Margin="4,4,4,4"
Grid.Row="0"/>
</Grid>
</Window>
This window I open from parent window:
var w = new Window1();
w.Show();
Then close this window, check with memory profiler and it memory doesn’t exist any object of window1 - richTextBox. It’s Ok.
But then I try bindable richTextBox:
Child window 2:
<Window x:Class="WpfApplication2.Window2"
xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
xmlns:Controls="clr-namespace:WpfApplication2.Controls"
Title="Window2" Height="300" Width="300">
<Grid>
<Controls:BindableRichTextBox Background="Red"
VerticalScrollBarVisibility="Auto"
HorizontalScrollBarVisibility="Auto"
FontSize="13"
Margin="4,4,4,4"
Grid.Row="0" />
</Grid>
</Window>
Open child window 2, close this child window and in memory are still alive object of this child window also bindable richTextBox object.
