Regions

• Jun 07, 2019

A region is a placeholder in the application UI into which modules are injected.

You can mark a control as a region using any of the following approaches.

• Set the UIRegion.Region attached property.

  XAML

  <TabControl dxmvvm:UIRegion.Region="RegionA" .../>
  

• Attach the UIRegion behavior to the control.

  XAML

  <TabControl>
      <dxmvvm:Interaction.Behaviors>
          <dxmvvm:UIRegion RegionName="RegionA"/>
      </dxmvvm:Interaction.Behaviors>
  </TabControl>
  

Once the control is marked as a region, modules are injected into this control from the ModuleManager.

C#

ModuleManager.DefaultManager.RegisterOrInjectOrNavigate(
    regionName: "RegionA", 
    module: new Module(
        key: "Module1",
        viewModelFactory: () => new Module1ViewModel(),
        viewType: typeof(Module1View)
));
