I have a content page which is bound to a view model.
In the view model i new up an address and give it some data
Address = new Address
{
UserId = Guid.NewGuid(),
PrimaryAddress = true,
Postcode = "G23 5HU",
Street = "Smith Street",
City = "Large City",
PhoneNumber = "115151"
};
I also have an AddressInfo control on the content page like so
<controls:AddressInfo Address="{Binding Address}"></controls:AddressInfo>
Here is the control it's self
public partial class AddressInfo : ContentView
{
public static readonly BindableProperty AddressProperty =
BindableProperty.Create(nameof(Address), typeof(Address), typeof(AddressInfo), null);
public Address Address
{
get { return (Address)GetValue(AddressProperty); }
set { SetValue(AddressProperty, value); }
}
public AddressInfo()
{
InitializeComponent();
Street.SetBinding(Label.TextProperty, new Binding(nameof(Address.Street), source: this));
City.SetBinding(Label.TextProperty, new Binding(nameof(Address), source: this));
PhoneNumber.SetBinding(Label.TextProperty, new Binding(nameof(Address), source: this));
PostCode.SetBinding(Label.TextProperty, new Binding(nameof(Address), source: this));
}
Here is the control XAML
<ContentView xmlns="http://xamarin.com/schemas/2014/forms"
xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2009/xaml"
x:Class="TyreKlicker.XF.Core.Controls.AddressInfo">
<ContentView.Content>
<StackLayout>
<Label
x:Name="Street"
Text="{Binding Address.Street}" />
<Label
x:Name="City"
Text="{Binding Address.City}" />
<Label Text="Hardcoded Text" ></Label>
<Label
x:Name="PostCode"
Text="{Binding Address.Postcode}" />
<Label
x:Name="PhoneNumber"
Text="{Binding Address.PhoneNumber}" />
<Label x:Name="CardHeader"
Text="{Binding Header}"
TextColor="{StaticResource PrimaryDark}"
FontSize="Large" Margin="10,0,0,0" />
<Button Clicked="Button_OnClicked"></Button>
</StackLayout>
</ContentView.Content>
When i run it i would expect to see the Address properties but instead its all blank except the Hardcoded Text
I added a button to the control to assist with debugging if i put a stop on the Button_OnClicked event i can see the properties of the Address and it has the correct data but it just not showing it on the list what am i doing wrong?
Thanks to the hints from Jason i removed the following lines from the AddressInfo constructor and viola it worked
//Street.SetBinding(Label.TextProperty, new Binding(nameof(Address.Street), source: this));
//City.SetBinding(Label.TextProperty, new Binding(nameof(Address), source: this));
//PhoneNumber.SetBinding(Label.TextProperty, new Binding(nameof(Address), source: this));
//PostCode.SetBinding(Label.TextProperty, new Binding(nameof(Address), source: this));
Thanks for the help!
