这篇文章主要展示在Silverlight4的应用程序中，用MVVM模式【编者注：如果你对MVVM模式不太理解，请先去熟悉一下关于这方面的资料】怎么打开一个子窗体(Child Window),怎么向子窗体传值，以及怎么从子窗体返回值到主窗体等等
我使用的方法不是严格意义上的MVVM模式，因为我实际上在ViewModel中实例化了子窗体，这通常很不方便的。但是在Google上找了好长时间，仅仅找到了打开子窗体的工具包的向导，我认为最好的方法就是亲自去实现它。我期望最方便且有严格意义上的MVVM的解决方案在SilverLight5中能够实现。
本篇文章只仅仅是一个概念的验证，并且是基于一个最简单的例子。MainPage.xaml文件包含两个TextBox控件，即Name和Address,另外，子窗体和主窗体一样，也有两个的控件。当用户在主窗体输入他们的名字，然后点击按钮，那么子窗体就弹出来。并且显示刚才输入的名字(请看下面的图片)。用户可以在子窗体中输入地址然后点击按钮，返回到主窗体【编者注：子窗体同时关闭】，那么主窗体上的地址框中就会显示刚才在子窗体中输入的地址。【编者注：这样就可以达到主窗体和子窗体之间互相传值】
实现上面的功能是很简单的，仅仅在View Model工程中创建一个子窗体。然后就可以实现子窗体和主窗体之间传递数据。然后创建每一个TextBox建一个属性，为Button创建Command，这是为了打开和关闭子窗体并且传递属性值。需要注意的是子窗体没有ViewModel，所有的需要实现的业务都在主窗体的ViewModel中实现
第一步：在ViewModel工程中创建一个子窗体，把它命名为MyChildWindow.xmal.
第二步：为MainPage创建一个ViewModel层。命名为：MainPage_ViewModel.cs
第三步：通过MainPage_ViewModel.cs来实现 MainPage.xaml.cs和MyChildWindow.xaml.cs 相互传值。【编者注：下面为各个文件的代码】
MainPage.xaml.cs:
代码
namespace View
{ public partial class MainPage : UserControl
{public MainPage()
{
InitializeComponent(); this.DataContext = new MainPage_ViewModel();
}
}
}
MyChildWindow.xaml.cs:
代码
namespace ViewModel
{ public partial class MyChildWindow : ChildWindow
{ public MyChildWindow(MainPage_ViewModel ma)
{
InitializeComponent(); this.DataContext = ma;
}
}
}
第四步：在 MainPage_ViewModel.cs为主窗体每个TextBox建属性和ViewModel
代码
using System.ComponentModel;using System.Collections.ObjectModel;using ViewModel; namespace ViewModel
{ public class MainPage_ViewModel : INotifyPropertyChanged
{//Properties of Mainpage
private string myNameVM = “”; public string MyNameVM
{get { return myNameVM; } set {
myNameVM = value;
RaisePropertyChanged(“myNameVM”);
}
}private string myAddressVM = “”; public string MyAddressVM
{get { return myAddressVM; } set {
myAddressVM = value;
RaisePropertyChanged(“MyAddressVM”);
}
}//Properties of ChildWindow
private string myNameCW = “”; public string MyNameCW
{get { return myNameCW; } set {
myNameCW = value;
RaisePropertyChanged(“MyNameCW”);
}
}private string myAddressCW = “”; public string MyAddressCW
{get { return myAddressCW; } set {
myAddressCW = value;
RaisePropertyChanged(“MyAddressCW”);
}
}//EventHandler
public event PropertyChangedEventHandler PropertyChanged; private void RaisePropertyChanged(string propertyname)
{ if (PropertyChanged != null)
{
PropertyChanged(this, new PropertyChangedEventArgs(propertyname));
}
}
}
}
第五步：如果以前没有创建这个，你就必须得在ViewModel中创建一个类DelegateCommand，主要是处理Button的命令。因此，你必须创建这个类。代码如下：
代码
using System;using System.Windows.Input;namespace ViewModel
{ public class DelegateCommand : ICommand //
{ private Predicate<object> _canExecute; private Action<object> _method; public event EventHandler CanExecuteChanged;public DelegateCommand(Action<object> method)
: this(method, null)
{
}public DelegateCommand(Action<object> method, Predicate<object> canExecute)
{
_method = method;
_canExecute = canExecute;
}public bool CanExecute(object parameter)
{ if (_canExecute == null)
{ return true;
}return _canExecute(parameter);
}public void Execute(object parameter)
{
_method.Invoke(parameter);
}protected virtual void OnCanExecuteChanged(EventArgs e)
{
var canExecuteChanged = CanExecuteChanged;if (canExecuteChanged != null)
canExecuteChanged(this, e);
}public void RaiseCanExecuteChanged()
{
OnCanExecuteChanged(EventArgs.Empty);
}
}
}
第六步：在MainPage_ViewModel.cs创建一个Commands,它可以绑定到主窗体和子窗体中的按钮上。
代码
using System.ComponentModel;using System.Collections.ObjectModel;using ViewModel; namespace ViewModel
{ public class MainPage_ViewModel : INotifyPropertyChanged
{//Properties of Mainpage
private string myNameVM = “”****; public string MyNameVM
{ get { return myNameVM; } set {myNameVM = value;
RaisePropertyChanged(“myNameVM”);
}
}private string myAddressVM = “”; public string MyAddressVM
{get { return myAddressVM; } set { myAddressVM = value;
RaisePropertyChanged(“MyAddressVM”****);
}
}//Properties of ChildWindow
private string myNameCW = “”****; public string MyNameCW
{get { return myNameCW; } set { myNameCW = value;
RaisePropertyChanged(“MyNameCW”);
}
}private string myAddressCW = “”; public string MyAddressCW
{get { return myAddressCW; } set { myAddressCW = value;
RaisePropertyChanged(“MyAddressCW”****);
}
}//When the button is pressed in MainPage, executes method ExecuteOpenChildWindow
private DelegateCommand _openChildWindow; public DelegateCommand OpenChildWindow
{ get { if (_openChildWindow == null)
_openChildWindow = new DelegateCommand(executeOpenChildWindow);return _openChildWindow;
}
}// New instance of ChildWindow. Sets the NameProperty of the ChildWindow equal to the Name entered in the MainPage.
MyChildWindow cw; private void executeOpenChildWindow(object parameter)
{
cw = new MyChildWindow(this);
MyNameCW = MyNameVM;
cw.Show();
}//When OK-button is pressed in ChildWindow
private DelegateCommand _okChildWindow; public DelegateCommand OkChildWindow
{ get { if (_okChildWindow == null)
_okChildWindow = new DelegateCommand(OkSaveChildWindow);return _okChildWindow;
}
} //MainPage Address property is set to the value entered in the address textbox in Child Window. Child Window is closed.
private void OkSaveChildWindow(object parameter)
{
MyAddressVM = MyAddressCW;
cw.Close();
}//EventHandler
public event PropertyChangedEventHandler PropertyChanged; private void RaisePropertyChanged(string propertyname)
{ if (PropertyChanged != null)
{
PropertyChanged(this, new PropertyChangedEventArgs(propertyname));
}
}
}
}
第七步:在MainPage.xaml 和 MyChildWindow.xaml中分别新增两个TextBox，然后把他们分别绑定到MainPage_ViewModel中的属性上。然后再分别建一个按钮，绑定到Command上。
MainPage.xaml
代码
<StackPanel><Grid Margin=“0 10 0 5” Width=“350”><Grid.RowDefinitions> <RowDefinition Height=“*“/> <RowDefinition Height=“*“/> <RowDefinition Height=“*“/>****</Grid.RowDefinitions> <Grid.ColumnDefinitions> <ColumnDefinition Width=“150”/> <ColumnDefinition Width=“*“/></Grid.ColumnDefinitions> <TextBlock Text=“Name:” TextWrapping=“Wrap” Margin=“5,5,0,5” Grid.Row=“0” /> <TextBlock Text=“Address:” Grid.Row=“1” Grid.Column=“0” />**** <TextBox Text=“{Binding MyNameVM, Mode=TwoWay}” Grid.Row=“0” Grid.Column=“1”/> <TextBox Text=“{Binding MyAddressVM, Mode=TwoWay}” Grid.Row=“1” Grid.Column=“1”/>****<Button Content=“Open Child Window”** **VerticalAlignment****=“Center”** **HorizontalAlignment****=“left”** **Width****=“auto”** **Margin****=“5”** **Grid.Row****=“2”** **Command****=“{Binding OpenChildWindow}” /> </Grid> </StackPanel>
MyChildWindow.xaml
代码
<Grid Margin=“0 30 0 5” Width=“350”>****<Grid.RowDefinitions> <RowDefinition Height=“auto”/> <RowDefinition Height=“auto”/> <RowDefinition Height=“205*“/>****</Grid.RowDefinitions> <Grid.ColumnDefinitions> <ColumnDefinition Width=“150”/> <ColumnDefinition Width=“*“/></Grid.ColumnDefinitions><TextBlock Text=“Name: “ Grid.Row=“0” /> <TextBlock Text=“Address:” Grid.Row=“1” Grid.Column=“0” />**** <TextBox x:Name=“InputName” Text=“{Binding MyNameCW, Mode=TwoWay}” Grid.Row=“0” Grid.Column=“1” Height=“20”/> <TextBox x:Name=“OutputAddress” Text=“{Binding MyAddressCW, Mode=TwoWay}” Grid.Row=“1” Grid.Column=“1” Height=“20”/>**** <Button x:Name=“OKButton” Command=“{Binding OkChildWindow}” Content=“OK” Width=“75” Height=“23” Margin=“0,12,79,0” Grid.Row=“2” Grid.Column=“1”/>
</Grid>
