ReSharper C# Live Template for Declaring Routed Event

Bart Read — Tue, 30 Nov 2010 14:46:14 GMT

Here's another WPF ReSharper Live Template for you. This one is for declaring standalone routed events of any type. Again, it's pretty simple:

       #region $EVENTNAME$ Routed Event

       public static readonly RoutedEvent $EVENTNAME$Event = EventManager.RegisterRoutedEvent( 
           "$EVENTNAME$",
           RoutingStrategy.$ROUTINGSTRATEGY$,
           typeof( $EVENTHANDLERDELEGATE$ ),
           typeof( $DECLARINGTYPE$ ) );

       public event $EVENTHANDLERDELEGATE$ $EVENTNAME$
       {
           add { AddHandler( $EVENTNAME$Event, value ); }
           remove { RemoveHandler( $EVENTNAME$Event, value ); }
       }

       protected virtual void On$EVENTNAME$()
       {
           RaiseEvent( new $EVENTARGSTYPE$( $EVENTNAME$Event, this ) );
           $END$
       }

       #endregion

ReSharper C# Live Template for Read-Only Dependency Property and Routed Event Boilerplate

Bart Read — Tue, 30 Nov 2010 12:28:00 GMT

Following on from my previous post, where I shared a Live Template for quickly declaring a normal read-write dependency property and its associated property change event boilerplate, here's an unsurprisingly similar template for creating a read-only dependency property.

       #region $PROPNAME$ Read-Only Property and Property Change Routed Event

        private static readonly DependencyPropertyKey $PROPNAME$PropertyKey = 
                                            DependencyProperty.RegisterReadOnly( 
            "$PROPNAME$", typeof ( $PROPTYPE$ ), typeof ( $DECLARING_TYPE$ ), 
            new PropertyMetadata( $DEF_VALUE$ , On$PROPNAME$Changed ) );

       public static readonly DependencyProperty $PROPNAME$Property =
                                           $PROPNAME$PropertyKey.DependencyProperty;

        public $PROPTYPE$ $PROPNAME$ 
        { 
            get { return ( $PROPTYPE$ ) GetValue( $PROPNAME$Property ); } 
            private set { SetValue( $PROPNAME$PropertyKey, value ); } 
        }

       public static readonly RoutedEvent $PROPNAME$ChangedEvent   =
                                           EventManager.RegisterRoutedEvent(
           "$PROPNAME$Changed",
           RoutingStrategy.$ROUTINGSTRATEGY$,
           typeof( RoutedPropertyChangedEventHandler< $PROPTYPE$ > ),
           typeof( $DECLARING_TYPE$ ) );

       public event RoutedPropertyChangedEventHandler< $PROPTYPE$ > $PROPNAME$Changed
       {
           add { AddHandler( $PROPNAME$ChangedEvent, value ); }
           remove { RemoveHandler( $PROPNAME$ChangedEvent, value ); }
       }

        private static void On$PROPNAME$Changed(
           DependencyObject d, DependencyPropertyChangedEventArgs e) 
        { 
            var $DECLARING_TYPE_var$ = d as $DECLARING_TYPE$; 
           var args = new RoutedPropertyChangedEventArgs< $PROPTYPE$ >(
               ( $PROPTYPE$ ) e.OldValue,
               ( $PROPTYPE$ ) e.NewValue );
           args.RoutedEvent    = $DECLARING_TYPE$.$PROPNAME$ChangedEvent;
           $DECLARING_TYPE_var$.RaiseEvent( args );$END$
        } 

       #endregion

The only real difference here is the addition of the DependencyPropertyKey, which allows your implementation to set the value of the dependency property without exposing the setter code to consumers of your type.

You'll probably find that you create read-only dependency properties much less often than read-write properties, but this should still save you some typing when you do need to do so.
