Binding, bound, autocorrection and validation

cultofluna posted on Thursday, December 21, 2006

Hello,

I have a property called Name that is bound to a textbox Text property. The input is checked OnPropertyChanged. Also an ErrorProvider is used.

Here's the problem:

When I type information in the textbox the error provider responds to the validation of the property. Some input errors can be automatically correct, so I've added an autocorrection where the member variable of the property is set to give users more of chance to successfully enter information. However, when I change the value of the member variable the bound textbox does not show the corrected information. My question is Why not?!

Any thoughts?

Because databinding doesn't requery the property, it assumes the value you entered is the value the object accepted.

The solution is to use the BindingSourceRefresh component in Csla.

Are you calling PropertyHasChanged when you change the variable??
