IViewLocator interface¶

Defined in

Namespace: ReactiveUI Assembly: ReactiveUI.Core.dll Full name: ReactiveUI.IViewLocator Modifiers: public abstract

Summary¶

Implement this to override how RoutedViewHost and ViewModelViewHost map view models to views.

Applies to

net10.0, net10.0-maccatalyst26.0, net10.0-desktop1.0, net10.0-browserwasm1.0, net10.0-tvos26.0, net10.0-windows10.0.19041, net10.0-macos26.0, net10.0-ios26.0, net10.0-android36.0, net9.0, net9.0-tvos18.0, net9.0-macos15.0, net9.0-maccatalyst18.0, net9.0-windows10.0.19041, net9.0-ios18.0, net9.0-desktop1.0, net8.0, net8.0-windows10.0.19041, net8.0-ios18.0, net8.0-maccatalyst18.0, net8.0-macos15.0, net8.0-tvos18.0, net8.0-ios17.5, net8.0-maccatalyst17.5, net8.0-macos14.5, netstandard2.1, net481, net462, net471

Class hierarchy

Implements: IEnableLogger

Remarks¶

A locator typically consults an IoC container to find an IViewFor implementation for the supplied view model. Implementations may use contracts to differentiate between platform-specific or themed view registrations.

Examples¶

<![CDATA[
 public sealed class CustomViewLocator : IViewLocator
 {
 private readonly Dictionary<Type, Func<IViewFor>> _mappings = new();
 
 public void Register<TViewModel, TView>(Func<TView> factory)
 where TViewModel : class
 where TView : class, IViewFor<TViewModel>
 {
 _mappings[typeof(TViewModel)] = () => factory();
 }
 
 public IViewFor<TViewModel>? ResolveView<TViewModel>(string? contract = null)
 where TViewModel : class
 {
 return _mappings.TryGetValue(typeof(TViewModel), out var factory)
 ? (IViewFor<TViewModel>)factory()
 : null;
 }
 }
 ]]>
