Silverlight Open Child Window counter

I have a silverlight application which uses a child window as a processing dialog. The child window open can be called from more that one event.

What I would like to do is to add a counter to the Child Window Show() that increments by one on each call. That way, I should then be able to only call the Close() if the counter is at zero. This would allow for all the completed events to run and call a Close() and decrement the value by one with each call.

To be honest I'm not sure where to start with this one but any help or guidance would be great.

Thanks

  • Its not 100% clear what you are trying to accomplish, but a good way to retrieve all your opened childwindow objects is the following method :

    VisualTreeHelper.GetOpenPopups()

    Note that this is available since Silverlight version 4.0 only

    Good luck.
