Don't Understand How INotifyPropertyChanged function

INotifyPropertyChanged interface implementation (appropriate event) and helper method works fine in my code but I really don't understand how it works. My book does a poor job of explaining it to me in my opinion or I am not very smart.
We have a separate class Car.cs added to my solution with the following code (example from the book) and it should work in TwoWay Binding regards to TextBox control in my WPF application being changed when object's instance is being changed too:
public class Car: INotifyPropertyChanged
{
private string _make;
private string _model;
public event PropertyChangedEventHandler PropertyChanged;
public Car()
{
}
public string Make
{
get { return _make; }
set
{
if (_make != value)
{
_make = value;
OnPropertyChanged("Make");
}
}
}
public string Model
{
get { return _model; }
set
{
if(_model != value)
{
_model = value;
OnPropertyChanged("Model");
}
}
}
private void OnPropertyChanged (string propertyName)
{
if (PropertyChanged != null)
{
this.PropertyChanged(this, new PropertyChangedEventArgs(propertyName));
}
}}
And here is the code which I made myself after learning Microsoft learning materials and it looks and works better imo:
public class Car: INotifyPropertyChanged
{
private string _make;
private string _model;
public event PropertyChangedEventHandler PropertyChanged;
public Car()
{
}
public string Make
{
get { return _make; }
set
{
_make = value;
OnPropertyChanged();
}
}
public string Model
{
get { return _model; }
set
{
_model = value;
OnPropertyChanged();
}
}
private void OnPropertyChanged ()
{
if (PropertyChanged != null)
{
PropertyChanged?.Invoke(this, new PropertyChangedEventArgs(""));
}
} }
So I have the foolowing question regards to example from the book (the first one):
What this part means? What's the point to check if property not equals to value (never saw anything like it before when during the Set part of the property you check that field of the class checked for being not equalled to value)? Code works even without it. No explanation for it in the book. Here is the code under question:
set
{
if (_make != value)
{
_make = value;
OnPropertyChanged("Make");
}
Why if you'll write the name of the property without brackets in the above-mentioned small piece of code (in subparagraph one) then it will not work? I meant if you'll write Make then it does not work and you should write "Make".
Thanks in advance!

Here is a basic example of how to correctly implement the IPropertyChanged interface, which notifies the view to re-draw on property changing its value.
public class PropertyChangedEventStackOverflow : INotifyPropertyChanged
{
//We have a private property of the same public property. This allows us to store the privous value of the property which we can
//get at any time when we ask.
string name = string.Empty;
//Public property is required to do two-way-binding or one-way-binding from model to the view.
public string Name
{
get => name;
set
{
if (name == value) //Check if the private property is already equals to the exact same value to avoid extra memory
return; //and uneccasary screen re-drawing. So we just return and avoid calling the OnPropertyChanged.
name = value; //If the value is different meaning we want to notify view and tell it to re-draw the screen for us.
OnPropertyChanged(nameof(Name));
}
}
//We create this helper metod to avoid doing something like this every single time we want to notify
string surname = string.Empty;
public string Surname
{
get => surname;
set
{
if (surname == value)
return;
surname = value;
PropertyChanged(this, new PropertyChangedEventArgs(nameof(Surname)));
}
}
//Here is the method to create for OnPropertyChangedEvent
public event PropertyChangedEventHandler PropertyChanged;
public void OnPropertyChanged([CallerMemberName] string propertyName = "")
{
var changed = PropertyChanged;
if (changed == null)
return;
changed.Invoke(this, new PropertyChangedEventArgs(propertyName));
}
}
If you want to go step further and want to have an Action when your property has changed you can do something like this. backingStore type T = private property
public bool SetProperty<T>(ref T backingStore, T value,
[CallerMemberName] string propertyName = "",
Action onChanged = null)
{
if (EqualityComparer<T>.Default.Equals(backingStore, value))
return false;
backingStore = value;
onChanged?.Invoke();
OnPropertyChanged(propertyName);
return true;
}
You can give it an action to execute if once a property has changed.

Because raising the PropertyChanged event can be expensive in terms of performance (for example when a complex view has to redraw itself in order to display the latest data), it's a recommended pattern to raise it only when necessary.
It's only necessary when the new value has changed. To update the binding when the new value and the old value are the same is redundant and potentially expensive.
The following example is a very verbose version to highlight what's going on:
private string myProperty;
public string MyProperty
{
get => this.myProperty;
set
{
string newValue = value;
string oldValue = this.MyProperty;
if (newValue != oldValue)
{
this.myProperty = newValue;
OnPropertyChanged(nameof(this.MyProperty));
}
}
}
For reasons of performance, passing an empty string (string.Empty or "") or null to the PropertyChangedEventArgs instance, instead of the property name, will instruct the binding engine to update all bindings of the class that raises the PropertyChanged event.
In other words, it's like raising the PropertyChanged event for all properties at once.
That's why you only do this when this behavior is explicitly desired (for example when you reset and clear all properties):
/* Will raise the PropertyChanged event for ALL properties defined by the declaring type */
PropertyChanged?.Invoke(this, new PropertyChangedEventArgs(""));
PropertyChanged?.Invoke(this, new PropertyChangedEventArgs(string.Empty));
PropertyChanged?.Invoke(this, new PropertyChangedEventArgs(null));
/* Will raise the PropertyChanged event ONLY for the particular property that matches the provided property name */
PropertyChanged?.Invoke(this, new PropertyChangedEventArgs("MyProperty"));
PropertyChanged?.Invoke(this, new PropertyChangedEventArgs(nameof(this.MyProperty)));
"Make" is called a string literal. Every literal enclosed in double-quotes is interpreted as plain text by the compiler (string literal). If it wasn't the double-quotes, the compiler expects the value to be a language object (for example a variable or type).
If you check the signature of the constructor of PropertyChangedEventArgs you will see that it expects the property name as string.
Using Make (without the double-quotes) is a simple value reference (local or member variable) that returns the value of the Make property and not the name of the property (member name).
The property name is required to tell the binding engine which property has changed and therefore which Binding needs to be updated.
The following example assumes that the property Make is set to a value of "BMW":
public string Make
{
get => this.make;
set
{
// For example 'value' is "BMW"
this.make = value;
// Invocation a)
// Pass the property name as argument.
OnPropertyChanged("Make"); // Same as: OnPropertyChanged(nameof(this.Make))
// Invocation b)
// Pass the property value as argument
OnPropertyChanged(Make);
// Verbose version of b)
string modelMake = Make;
OnPropertyChanged(modelMake);
}
}
Version b) won't work, because the binding engine needs the property's member name and not the property value.
See Microsoft Docs: Strings and string literals to learn about strings.
See INotifyPropertyChanged to learn the recommended pattern to implement the interface
Remarks
Checking variable (for example an event delegate) for null using an if statement and the Null-conditional operator ?. or ?[] is redundant.
In high performance code you would want to avoid the redundant double checking.
The following versions are the same:
private void OnPropertyChanged()
{
if (PropertyChanged != null)
{
PropertyChanged.Invoke(this, new PropertyChangedEventArgs(propertyName));
}
}
private void OnPropertyChanged()
{
PropertyChanged?.Invoke(this, new PropertyChangedEventArgs(propertyName));
}
private void OnPropertyChanged(string propertyName) => PropertyChanged?.Invoke(this, new PropertyChangedEventArgs(propertyName));

What's the point to check if property not equals to value
it is just to avoid unnecessary updates. It is not strictly required. Whenever you have events to signal that something is updated it is often a good idea to check if the thing actually changed, since you do not know what is listening to the event, it could potentially trigger some slow computations.
Why if you'll write the name of the property without brackets in the above-mentioned small piece of code (in subparagraph one) then it will not work?
Because the event needs a string. You can let the compiler insert this string for you by writing OnPropertyChanged(nameof(Make)); You can also use CallerMemberName attribute to let the compiler insert this automatically, just call OnPropertyChanged() within your property.
protected virtual void OnPropertyChanged([CallerMemberName] string propertyName = null)
{
PropertyChanged?.Invoke(this, new PropertyChangedEventArgs(propertyName));
}
Going one step further you you can create a method that does both the comparison, field update, and event, letting you write a one line setter => Set(ref _make, value);
private void Set<T>(ref T field, T value, [CallerMemberName] string caller = "")
{
if (!EqualityComparer<T>.Default.Equals(field, value))
{
field = value;
OnPropertyChanged(caller);
}
}
However, my preference tend to be to wrap all of this inside a separate class:
public class Changeable<T> : INotifyPropertyChanged
{
private T currentValue;
public Changeable(T initialValue) => currentValue = initialValue;
public T Value
{
get => currentValue;
set
{
if (!EqualityComparer<T>.Default.Equals(currentValue, value))
{
this.currentValue = value;
OnPropertyChanged();
}
}
}
public event PropertyChangedEventHandler PropertyChanged;
protected virtual void OnPropertyChanged([CallerMemberName] string propertyName = null)
{
PropertyChanged?.Invoke(this, new PropertyChangedEventArgs(propertyName));
}
}
That way you can declare a property like public Changeable<string> Make {get;} = new (""); and bind to it like {Binding Make.Value}

INotifyPropertyChanged is an interface which only requires a class to implement it's requirements. Which is basically "just" an Event.
public interface INotifyPropertyChanged
{
//
// Summary:
// Occurs when a property value changes.
event PropertyChangedEventHandler? PropertyChanged;
}
The Method OnPropertyChanged is just a "helper" to raise this event. But the important part here, is that the INotifyPropertyChanged implementation by itself is not doing anything.
However WinForms and WPF are automatically subscribing in some higher-hirachy classes to such Event. They identify such classes through reflection and add themself to one of the subscribers to the PropertyChanged Event - which your class still needs to raise.
For this purpose you need to override the Setters of your properties:
public string Examle
{
get { return _field; }
set
{
_field = value;
OnPropertyChanged(); // <---
}
}
Otherwise the subscriber will never be notified. However the whole purpose of this is to decouple the handling of changes from the "Model" so your class which act's as container to the data - since the container can be passed to different forms, which might want to handle this container different.
The check if the value actually changed is only something you CAN do - to prevent the notification of the subscriber (let's say your data grid) to re-run all validations you've setup for such property. To avoid unnecessary runs of such validations this if will prevent notifying subscribers of such changes where a value get's re-assigned, but it remains the same.
The auto-wiring of the subscriber however is abstraced for you as developer, which can create difficulties for beginners to understand - however makes your life much more easier on the long run, as you can rely on the Framework as such (less for you to implement, test, etc.) so it's just a "convention" to use INotifyPropertyChange Interface, but the basic building blocks are general C# constructs.
Hope this helped a little :)

How to fire Property Changed Event when it's not actually changing

so I have a model which contains 2 variables, a List and a DateTime. In my UserControl I have a DependencyProperty and I also defined a PropertyChangedCallback.
public static readonly DependencyProperty MyProperty = DependencyProperty.Register("My", typeof(List<MyContainer>), typeof(UC), new FrameworkPropertyMetadata(null, new PropertyChangedCallback(OnMyProperty)));
public List<MyContainer> My
{
get
{
return GetValue(MyProperty) as List<MyContainer>;
}
set
{
SetValue(MyProperty, value);
}
}
private static void OnMyProperty(DependencyObject d, DependencyPropertyChangedEventArgs e)
{
UC control = d as UC;
//do stuff
}
On my form there is a button, which do the changes on the other model variable (on the DateTime).
private void Date_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
{
MyModel model = DataContext as MyModel;
if (model != null)
{
model.Date = model.Date.AddDays(1);
}
}
And finally here is my model.
public class MyModel : INotifyPropertyChanged
{
private List<MyContainer> _My;
private DateTime _Date;
public MyModel()
{
_Date = DateTime.Now.Date;
_My = new List<MyContainer>();
}
public List<MyContainer> My
{
get
{
return _My;
}
set
{
_My = value;
OnPropertyChanged("My");
}
}
public DateTime Date
{
get
{
return _Date;
}
set
{
_Date = value;
OnPropertyChanged("Date");
OnPropertyChanged("My");
}
}
#region INotifyPropertyChanged
public event PropertyChangedEventHandler PropertyChanged;
private void OnPropertyChanged(string propertyName)
{
PropertyChanged?.Invoke(this, new PropertyChangedEventArgs(propertyName));
}
#endregion
}
XAML declaration is the following.
<local:UC My="{Binding My}" />
So my problem is the after I hit the run, it fires the OnMyProperty once, after that if I hit the button, it changes the DateTime property well, but the OnMyProperty callback doesn't firing again. However I noticed that if I modify my model like this
public DateTime Date
{
get
{
return _Date;
}
set
{
_Date = value;
_My = new List<MyContainer>(_My); //added
OnPropertyChanged("Date");
OnPropertyChanged("My");
}
}
now it fires it every time when I hit the button. How can I trigger the second behaviour without that modification?

After setting the value of a DependencyProperty it first checks if the new value is different to the old one. Only in this case the PropertyChangedCallback method you registered with that DependencyProperty is called. So the name PropertyChanged makes sense.
In your (not modified) case you not even try to change My (only Date). So there is no reason to raise the callback function.

The answer is that you almost certainly do not need to do this. When you ask a question about how to make the framework do something it really does not want to do, always say why you think you need to do that. It's very likely that there's a much easier answer that everybody else is already using.
The only thing you have bound to the control is My. Therefore, if My hasn't changed, then the state of the control should not change. If you want the state of the control to change when Date changes, bind Date to some property of the control. The only way the control should ever get information from any viewmodel is through binding one of its dependency properties to a property of the viewmodel.
The control should not ever know or care who or what is providing values for its properties. It should be able to do its job knowing only the property values it has been given.
If the contents of My have changed -- you added an item or removed one -- of course the control has no way of knowing that, because you refused to tell it. You're just telling it there's a new list. It checks, sees it's still got the same old list, and ignores you. The My property of your viewmodel should be an ObservableCollection, because that will notify the control when you add or remove items in the collection.
The items themselves, your MyContainer class, must implement INofityPropertyChanged as well, if you want to be able to change their properties while they are displayed in the UI.
The dependency property My on your control must not be of type List<T>. It should probably be type object, just like ItemsControl.ItemsSource. Then your control template can display it in an ItemsControl which knows what to do with it. If an ObservableCollection is bound to it as I suggested above, the ItemsControl will update automatically. In OnMyProperty, your control class can check to see if it's an observable collection as well:
private static void OnMyProperty(DependencyObject d, DependencyPropertyChangedEventArgs e)
{
UC control = d as UC;
if (e.NewValue is INotifyCollectionChanged)
{
(e.NewValue as INotifyCollectionChanged).CollectionChanged +=
(s, ecc) => {
// Do stuff with UC and ecc.NewItems, ecc.OldItems, etc.
};
}
}

Trigger event on value change C#

I'm trying to monitor a value and when it is changed, to update a text field after performing some calculations with a result.
The value I'm trying to monitor comes from an AGauge property (custom control). I want to update the text field when the AGauge.Value changes.
I've looked at questions such as This One but I don't really understand how this works, or what I need to change to get the result I'm looking for.
Can anyone better explain what I need to do in order for this to work?
The AGuage.Value is a float type, incase your wondering.
Thanks in advance.
Update 1
I have now added the following code to my project:
public class AGuage
{
private float _value;
public float Value
{
get
{
return this._value;
}
set
{
this._value = value;
this.ValueChanged(this._value);
}
}
public void ValueChanged(float newValue)
{
}
}
And can get the ValueChanged to fire using the following:
AGuage n = new AGuage();
n.Value = Pressure_Gauge.Value;
Which fires everytime the Pressure_Gauge.Value is updated.
The issue, or last hurdle, I am facing now is this part:
public void ValueChanged(float newValue)
{
Form1.Pressure_Raw.text = "Working";
}
I want to update the label's text on form1 usingthe above method, however I get an error saying: An object reference is required for the nonstatic field, method, or property.
I'm not sure how to do this, I've read some information about Static properties, but how would I update the label's text value from within this?
Thanks.

This might help. You could add an event and subscribe to it in your form.
For example:
public class AGauge {
// You can either set the Value this way
public float Value {
get {return this.Value;}
set
{
// (1)
// set "Value"
this.Value = value;
// raise event for value changed
OnValueChanged(null);
}
}
// create an event for the value change
// this is extra classy, as you can edit the event right
// from the property window for the control in visual studio
[Category("Action")]
[Description("Fires when the value is changed")]
public event EventHandler ValueChanged;
protected virtual void OnValueChanged(EventArgs e)
{
// (2)
// Raise the event
if (ValueChanged != null)
ValueChanged(this,e);
}
}
public Form1 : Form {
// In form, make your control and add subscriber to event
AGauge ag = new AGauge();
// (3)
ag.ValueChanged += UpdateTextBox;
// (4)
public void UpdateTextBox(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
// update the textbox here
textbox.Text = ag.Value;
}
}
Here's how this works:
At (3) you add a subscriber to the ag.ValueChanged event as described HERE.
When you go to change ag.Value, you get to (1), where Value is changed and OnValueChanged is called. This gets you to (2), where the ValueChanged event is raised. When this happens, all subscribers to that event are "notified" and call their respective methods. So when you get to (2), (4) ends up getting called because "UpdateTextBox" was set as a subscriber to the ValueChanged event. It's a bit tricky, but it is very useful.
Or if you want to continue with how you're trying to do it, you need to do this:
public class AGuage
{
private float _value;
// create object of Form1 for reference
private Form1 form1;
// pass reference to form1 through constructor
public AGauge(Form1 form1)
{
// assign
this.form1 = form1;
}
public float Value
{
get
{
return this._value;
}
set
{
this._value = value;
this.ValueChanged(this._value);
}
}
public void ValueChanged(float newValue)
{
// use the form1 reference
this.form1.Pressure_Raw.Text = "Working";
}
}
And then do this:
// if creating the AGauge object in Form1, pass "this" to the object
AGuage n = new AGuage(this);
I highly recommend you don't do it this way as this breaks the generics rule for OOP. Which means, if you try to use this AGauge control anywhere else other than in Form1, it will not work the same way. I recommend doing it with events like I have described above. It's much more universal.

You need to make your AGauge implement INotifyPropertyChanged and notify the property changing on Value. There's enough information on Google on how to do this and has been discussed hundreds of times in StackOverflow.
Then, you will need to use a Binding to bind your textbox to the AGauge value. Since you need to convert, you'll need to provide formatting and optionally parsing.
This should be something like:
var binding = new Binding("Text", myAgaugeControl, "Value");
binding.Format += BindingFormat;
binding.Parse += BindingParse;
myTextBox.DataBindings.Add(binding);
BindingFormat and BindingParse should be the converters. Format would be for converting the gauge's value to the textbox string. The most simple:
void BindingFormat(object sender, ConvertEventArgs e)
{
e.Value = e.Value.ToString();
}
BindingParse would be the opposite: if the textbox text changes, you need to parse the text and convert it to a value AGauge can understand. I'll let you figure this out.
More information on Binding, Format and Parse

What you need to do is create a custom setter for the Value property. Every time the value is set your code will call your hook method which I called ValueChanged(). In that method you can perform your calculations and then set the text field to the result.
public class AGuage
{
private float _value;
public float Value
{
get
{
return this._value;
}
set
{
this._value = value;
this.ValueChanged(this._value);
}
}
public void ValueChanged(float newValue)
{
// Action to perform on value change
// Update a text field after performing some calculations with a result.
}
}

A nice and clean option is to use Microsoft's Reactive Framework (NuGet "Rx-WinForms"). It lets you work with observables (as opposed to enumerables) in a LINQ-like manner.
Your class would look like this:
public class AGuage
{
private float _value;
private Subject<float> _values = new Subject<float>();
public float Value
{
get { return _value; }
set
{
_value = value;
_values.OnNext(value);
}
}
public IObservable<float> Values
{
get { return _values.AsObservable(); }
}
}
Now you can do things like this:
var aGuage = new AGuage();
var query =
from value in aGuage.Values
where value > 5.0f && value < 20.0f //filtering
select value * 150f + 45.3f; //computation
var subscription =
query.Subscribe(value =>
{
/* do something with the filtered & computed value */
});
aGuage.Value = 2.1f; // query.Subscribe doesn't fire
aGuage.Value = 12.4f; // query.Subscribe DOES fire
aGuage.Value = 202.1f; // query.Subscribe doesn't fire
If you want to shut down the subscription to the values just call subscription.Dispose().

Raise an event in main whenever a variable's value changed in a class in c#?

I have a changed event in a class, which is triggered at a variable's value change but I dont know how to send a notification to the main of my C# windows form, for example, show a message box to notify the value changed. I dont wanna set a timer to check every second for a response. There is any better way?

You are probably looking for INotifyPropertyChanged, a common pattern in WPF but it can also be used for Windows Forms. There is a pretty large example on the documentation page:
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.componentmodel.inotifypropertychanged(v=vs.110).aspx
class SomeClass : INotifyPropertyChanged
{
private int foo;
public event PropertyChangedEventHandler PropertyChanged;
public int Foo
{
get { return foo; }
set
{
if (foo == value)
return;
foo = value;
PropertyChanged("Foo");
}
}
protected void OnPropertyChanged(string propertyName)
{
if (PropertyChanged != null)
PropertyChanged(this, new PropertyChangedEventArgs(propertyName));
}
}
Please note that much of this becomes safer and much less boilerplate you use newer .NET features such as [CallerMemberName]

As other posted you should impement INotifyPropertyChanged, but in addition I would suggest the following as well:
In the setter of your property check whether the value, that is assigned to your property really changes the property's value. Otherwise you probably fire the notify change to often.
You should also implement ISupportInitialize. Usually, you fire the property changed event to inform your main form that data has changed and needs to be saved. But if you load your instances from e.g. a database, the property changed event would also fire, indicating data has changed, which is not true in that sense. With ISupportInitialize you can tell your instances that they are being initialized and that they should not fire the notify property changed event.
Here is some sample code:
class MyTest : INotifyPropertyChanged, ISupportInitialize
{
public event PropertyChangedEventHandler INotifyPropertyChanged.PropertyChanged;
public delegate void PropertyChangedEventHandler(object sender, PropertyChangedEventArgs e);
private bool _IsInitializing;
private bool _MyProperty;
public void BeginInit()
{
_IsInitializing = true;
}
public void EndInit()
{
_IsInitializing = false;
}
public bool MyProperty {
get { return _MyProperty; }
set {
if (_MyProperty == value)
return;
_MyProperty = value;
OnPropertyChanged("MyProperty");
}
}
private void OnPropertyChanged(string propertyName)
{
if (_IsInitializing)
return;
if (PropertyChanged != null) {
PropertyChanged(this, new PropertyChangedEventArgs(propertyName));
}
}
}
For initialization you would write (to prevent the property changed event from firering):
MyTest thisTest = new MyTest();
thisTest.BeginInit();
thisTest.MyProperty = true;
thisTest.EndInit();

You should wrap your variable with a "Property" (Getter and Setter).
Then you can implement in the "Setter" either your own event, or you can trigger the property changed event from WPF (if you are using WPF).

how UI language is changed?

Here, I have a bit confusion about UI language. If language is changed then what happens? The whole folder gets changed or Culture gets loaded? I cannot get what is actually happening.
Properties.Strings.MainWindow_Language_Selection_English_Label="English"
Properties.Strings.MainWindow_Language_Selection_Gujarati_Label="ગુજરાતી"
Please explain what is happening.
private void LanguageSelection_SelectionChanged(object sender, SelectionChangedEventArgs e)
{
ComboBoxItem item = LanguageSelection.SelectedItem as ComboBoxItem;
if (item.Content.ToString() == Properties.Strings.MainWindow_Language_Selection_English_Label)
{
CultureManager.UICulture = new System.Globalization.CultureInfo("en");
}
else if (item.Content.ToString() == Properties.Strings.MainWindow_Language_Selection_Gujarati_Label)
{
CultureManager.UICulture = new System.Globalization.CultureInfo("gu");
}
Settings.Default["UILanguage"] = CultureManager.UICulture.Name;
Settings.Default.Save();
}

In general, setting the culture on application thread will be effective on the next form that is displayed, so to make this work you probably need a login/language selection window where you set the main thread's culture and then show application's main window.
There were a few attempts around this to make language selection take effect immadiately (easier in WPF) but this is how it works out of the box.
In WPF, however, if you are directly binding UI elements to resources you can make the UI update by raising a property change event on your resource property. The easiest way to achieve this (other than creating a new code generator for the .resx file) would be to wrap your resources in a model class like this:
public class StringRes : INotifyPropertyChanged
{
public event PropertyChangedEventHandler PropertyChanged = delegate {};
public string Login
{
get { return Properties.Strings.Login; }
}
public string Password
{
get { return Properties.Strings.Password; }
}
public void NotifyLanguageChanged()
{
PropertyChanged(this, new PropertyChangedEventArgs("Login"));
PropertyChanged(this, new PropertyChangedEventArgs("Password"));
}
}
public class MainWindow
{
private StringRes _resources;
private void LanguageSelection_SelectionChanged()
{
System.Threading.Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentUICulture = GetCurrentCulture();
_resources.NotifyLanguageChanged();
}
}
If you have bound your UI elements to the instance of the StringRes class, they will be updated when you raise the notification change event in your model.
