Data Binding Change Notification

[Rav Panchalingam]

Hi,

I have read in documentation that RadCharts supports binding to a data source with change notification. I assume this means, when a change is made to that data type it will automatically reflect on the graph? I havent been able to succesfully implement this using an ArrayList. Is there a sample application available?

Regards

Rav

Hi Rav,

I don't think that you will get any change notifications from simple ArrayList - you will need INotifyCollectionChanged!

How About that:

	public partial class MainWindow : Window
	{
	ObservableCollection<double> data = new ObservableCollection<double>();
	public MainWindow()
	{
	this.InitializeComponent();
	RadChart1.DataContext = data;
	SetData();
	}
	private void SetData()
	{
	data.Clear();
	Random rnd = new Random();
	for (int i = 1; i <= 10; i++)
	{
	data.Add((int)(rnd.NextDouble() * 10));
	}
	}
	private void Button_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
	{
	SetData();
	}
	}

and the Xaml:

	<Grid x:Name="LayoutRoot">
	<control:RadChart x:Name="RadChart1" ItemsSource="{Binding}"/>
	<Button Content="Change Data" Click="Button_Click"
	VerticalAlignment="Center" HorizontalAlignment="Right"
	Width="100" Height="25"/>
	</Grid>

so now... when we change the collection, chart is updated properly :}  ObservableCollection is a very handy stuff :}
