Created form with a single button and a single DataListView.
Added this code to form:
Dim dummies As New ObservableCollection(Of Dummy)
Private Sub Form1_Load(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
dlvDummies.DataSource = dummies
End Sub
Private Sub Button1_Click(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
dummies.Add(New Dummy(Now.ToLongTimeString()))
End Sub
Class Dummy
Public Property X As String
Sub New(x As String)
Me.X = x
End Sub
End Class
This is actually a bare bones reproduction of the problem I'm having in a larger app. The answer given in https://stackoverflow.com/a/30157854/2112855 implies that this should "just work". Is this a defect, or user error on my part?
Replacing ObservableCollection(Of foo) with BindingList(Of foo) fixed, or rather worked around this.
I think, based on the discussion seen at https://sourceforge.net/p/objectlistview/discussion/812923/thread/ab0d6208/ that the accepted answer in https://stackoverflow.com/a/30157854/2112855 is faulty and should probably be edited.
