I stumbled upon the problem of not being able to use a windows method as a property inside the objects initializer:

 var window = new DialogWindow { DataContext = new YesNoDialogViewModel() { DialogMessage = confirmation.Content as string, DialogTitle = confirmation.Title, } }; (window.DataContext as YesNoDialogViewModel).CloseWindowCommand = new ActionCommand(window.Close);

I wan't to do something like this:

var window = new DialogWindow { DataContext = new YesNoDialogViewModel() { DialogMessage = confirmation.Content as string, DialogTitle = confirmation.Title, CloseWindowCommand = new ActionCommand(window.Close) } };

However, i can't seem to figure it out (new ActionCommand(window.Close) doesnt compile, cannot use window before its declared).

Is there any hack or workaround to just add the reference to the void anyways?

  • @MatteoUmili yes, I figured. Thank you for the link. It's not possible apparently. Commented Jun 30, 2016 at 10:10

Reset to default

You can't put it in object initializer because ActionCommand() uses in argument the object which is not created yet - window -> window.Close().
