9 months ago In some derivative testing, I found that in the CommunityToolkit.Mvvm variant view would not be initialized when the tab was selected the first time. This was because the load function for the ViewModel's drive data had not been set up before the view was initialized. Adding setting the view DataContext in the View's constructor solves this issue. See the code below.
namespace TreeDataGridDemo.Views
{
public partial class WikipediaPageView : UserControl
{
public WikipediaPageView()
{
InitializeComponent();
this.DataContext = new WikipediaPageViewModel();
}
}
}

Using GitHub download of TreeDataGrid as of 2024-02-23 as a base I have rebuilt separate versions of TreeDataGridDemo in proper Mvvm format. Separate projects one using ReactiveUI and the other CommunityToolkit.Mvvm are operationally identical to the sample demo from the Avalonia.TreeDataGrid snapshot downloaded from the Github repository. Both of the derivative demo projects use net8.0 and all required Nuget packages are updated to their most current versions. This reference information is documented in the MainWindowViewModel.cs file of each variant.
These implement correctly constructed View-ViewModel pairing such that the views are completely independent. These independent views are then individually inserted into TabItems of a TabControl in MainView.axaml.
The conversion process was first from the GitHub version to a standalone ReactiveUI MVVM variant. Once this version was operating properly, it provided the base for the CommunityToolkit.Mvvm variant. Each project has notes embedded relating to that aspect of the conversion.
This attached sample code is intended to be a rosetta stone accessible by anyone. Feel free to review and comment on anything.
