    MVVMContextCompositionRoot Class

    Allows you to bind data types created by DevExpress MVVM Framework at runtime to a dependency injection framework.

    Namespace: DevExpress.Utils.MVVM

    Assembly: DevExpress.Utils.v25.1.dll

    NuGet Packages: DevExpress.Utils, DevExpress.Wpf.Core

    #Declaration

    public static class MVVMContextCompositionRoot

    #Remarks

    The MVVMContextCompositionRoot class exposes the ViewModelCreate event that allows you to bind data types created by DevExpress MVVM Framework at runtime to a dependency injection framework (for example, Ninject).

    // Retrieve the live POCO ViewModel instance with the Ninject kernel
    //regular event
    mvvmContext1.ViewModelCreate += MVVMContext_ViewModelCreate;
    void MVVMContext_ViewModelCreate(object sender, DevExpress.Utils.MVVM.ViewModelCreateEventArgs e) {
        // kernel.Bind<SamuraiViewModel>().To(e.RuntimeViewModelType);
        // e.ViewModel = kernel.Get<SamuraiViewModel>();
        e.ViewModel = kernel.Get(e.RuntimeViewModelType);
    }
    //static event
    MVVMContextCompositionRoot.ViewModelCreate += (s,e)=> {
        e.ViewModel = kernel.Get(e.RuntimeViewModelType);
    };
