MVVMSnippets

Just a handful of snippets to accelerate the implementation of Properties, Commands, Collections and the OnPropertyChanged method

How to add this snippets to Visual Studio?

1. Download the snippets you want to use
2. Open Visual Studio
3. Go to Tools -> Code Snippets Manager -> Add
4. Done!

PropertyChangedEventHandler (

Use 'inpc' snippet. (File INPC.snippet)

public event PropertyChangedEventHandler PropertyChanged;
    protected void OnPropertyChanged(string propertyName)
    {
    if (PropertyChanged != null)
      PropertyChanged(this, new PropertyChangedEventArgs(propertyName));
    }

Full property supporting PropertyChanged

Use 'propx' snippet. (File INPCProp.snippet)

   private string _PropertyName;
        public string PropertyName
        {
            get { return _PropertyName; }
            set
            {
                _PropertyName = value;
                OnPropertyChanged("PropertyName");
            }
        }

Full ObservableCollection property supporting PropertyChanged

Use 'propxcol' snippet. (File INPCCol.snippet)

    private ObservableCollection<string> _PropertyName;
        public ObservableCollection<string> PropertyName
        {
            get { return _PropertyName; }
            set
            {
                _PropertyName = value;
                OnPropertyChanged("PropertyName");
            }
        }

        private void PropertyName_CollectionChanged(object sender, NotifyCollectionChangedEventArgs e)
        {
            OnPropertyChanged("PropertyName");
        }
        //ToDo:
        //Insert this on your constructor:
        PropertyName = new ObservableCollection<string>();
        PropertyName.CollectionChanged += PropertyName_CollectionChanged;

Command implementation

Use 'xcom' snippet. (File INPCCommand.snippet)

    public ICommand MethodNameCommand { get; set; }
        public void MethodName()	
        {
            // Copy & Paste this into your Constructor:
            MethodNameCommand = new Command(MethodName);

            // ToDo: Your work goes here:
        }
