I'm trying to implement simple validation with IDataErrorInfo
and got problem - IDataErrorInfo
indexer is never called. I m validating TextBox
for numeric value with specified range, Type validation works correct but range validation doesn't work.
C# code:
public interface IDataErrorInfo
{
string Error { get; }
string this[string columnName] { get; }
}
public class Bounds:IDataErrorInfo
{
int lbw = 0;
public int LBW
{
get { return lbw; }
set { lbw = value; }
}
public string this[string columnname]
{
get
{
string error = String.Empty;
switch(columnname)
{
case "LBW":
if (0 >= lbw || 500 < lbw)
{
error = "out of range";
}
break;
}
return error;
}
}
public string Error
{
get { return null; }
}
}
public partial class MainWindow : Window
{
public MainWindow()
{
InitializeComponent();
Bounds bounds = new Bounds(rolletBoundLbwBox);
rolletBoundGrid.DataContext = bounds;
}
}
xaml code:
<Grid x:Name="rolletBoundGrid" Background="#FFE5E5E5">
<TextBox x:Name="rolletBoundLbwBox" HorizontalAlignment="Left" Height="26" TextWrapping="Wrap" VerticalAlignment="Top" Width="120" Margin="164,10,0,0" Text="{Binding LBW, NotifyOnValidationError=True, ValidatesOnDataErrors=True, UpdateSourceTrigger=PropertyChanged}"/>
</Grid>
Do you see the reason for the problem?
Are you implementing the built-in System.ComponentModel.IDataErrorInfo
interface?
public class Bounds: System.ComponentModel.IDataErrorInfo
...
It doesn't work if you implement your own custom interface that happens to be named "IDataErrorInfo".
