MAUI.NET
I have a special picker for my own that I want to reuse in many places
<ContentView ...
x:Class="XYZ.Views.ABCPicker"
x:DataType="views:ABCPicker">
<Grid>
<Picker ItemsSource="{Binding ...}" SelectedItem="{Binding ChoosenDeviceTypeProperty}"/>
</Grid>
</ContentView>
and its code behind with my AttachedProperty:
public partial class ABCPicker : ContentView
{
public static readonly BindableProperty ChoosenDeviceTypeProperty = BindableProperty.CreateAttached("ChoosenDeviceType", typeof(string), typeof(ABCPicker), "Detect by connect", BindingMode.TwoWay);
public static string GetChoosenDeviceType(BindableObject view)
{
return (string)view.GetValue(ChoosenDeviceTypeProperty);
}
public static void SetChoosenDeviceType(BindableObject view, string value)
{
view.SetValue(ChoosenDeviceTypeProperty, value);
}
public ABCPicker()
{
this.BindingContext = this;
InitializeComponent();
}
}
I want to consume it in my broader control ViewModel
public class BroaderControlViewModel : BaseViewModel
{
...
private string myResult;
public string MyResult
{
get { return myResult; }
set { SetPropertyAndNotify(ref myResult, value); }
}
public ICommand MyCommand { private set; get; }
public BroaderControlViewModel()
{
MyCommand = new Command(() =>
{
// here I want the to get a choosen value to proceed with it after the user have choosen value in my special picker
});
}
}
with a view like below:
<ContentView ...
x:Class="XYZ.Views.BroaderControlView"
x:DataType="viewModels:BroaderControlViewModel">
<VerticalStackLayout ...>
<views:ABCPicker ChoosenDeviceType="{Binding MyResult, Mode=TwoWay}" />
<Button Text="Connect" Command="{Binding MyCommand}"/>
</VerticalStackLayout>
</ContentView>
I tried different binding types, also with x:Reference this and also with normal binding properties - not attached ones.
How it should be matched?
