How Dependency Injection Containers Work in C#?

Dependency Injection (DI) containers, such as Unity or DryIoc, help manage the creation and lifetime of object dependencies in C#. They facilitate the Inversion of Control (IoC) principle, allowing you to focus on writing clean, maintainable code without worrying about the complexities of instantiating dependencies manually. How DI Containers Work? Registration:  You define which concrete classes should be used to fulfill specific interface contracts. This allows the DI container to know what to instantiate when a class requests a particular dependency. Resolution:  When an instance of a class is requested, the DI container looks at the registered services, resolves the dependencies, and creates the object with the required dependencies injected. Lifetime Management:  The container manages the lifecycle of the dependencies. You can specify whether instances should be singleton (one instance for the entire application), transient (a new instance each time), or scoped (one ...

Pagination of DataGrid in WPF using MVVM

In this Post i will explain the pagination using the MVVM pattern.

Lets first create the View with DataGrid and pagination control with First, Previous, Next and Last buttons and we will also have the number of record per page to be displayed in DataGrid option which is ComboBox and in this DataGrid i will load data from CSV file.


View

I will create the view with DataGrid like this



And in this DataGrid i will load data from CSV file

In the DataGrid we have five columns to display the five properties in DataGrid which are binded with the Model Properties.

All the four Buttons are binded with Command which will have in ViewModel.

Lets first create Model.

Model

 public class EmployeeDetail : INotifyPropertyChanged

    {

        private string iD;

        private string name;

        private string age;

        private string gender;

        private string address;


        public string ID

        {

            get => iD; set

            {

                iD = value;

                OnPropertyChanged(nameof(ID));

            }

        }

        public string Name { get => name; set {

                name = value;

                OnPropertyChanged(nameof(Name));

            }

        }

        public string Age { get => age; set  {

                age = value;

                OnPropertyChanged(nameof(Age));

            }

        }

        public string Gender { get => gender; set  {

                gender = value;

                OnPropertyChanged(nameof(Gender));

            }

        }

        public string Address { get => address; set  {

                address = value;

                OnPropertyChanged(nameof(Address));

            }

        }

        public event PropertyChangedEventHandler PropertyChanged;

        protected void OnPropertyChanged([CallerMemberName] string propertyName = null)

        {

            PropertyChanged?.Invoke(this, new PropertyChangedEventArgs(propertyName));

        }

    }


Now lets create the ViewModel

ViewModel


    public class EmployeeViewModel : INotifyPropertyChanged

        public EmployeeViewModel()

            EmployeeCollection = CollectionViewSource.GetDefaultView(LstEmployeeDetail);

            LastCommand = new Command((s) => true, LastPage);
            PreviousCommand = new Command((s) => true, PreviousPage);
            #endregion
            LoadEmployee();


        }
        public event PropertyChangedEventHandler PropertyChanged;
        protected void OnPropertyChanged([CallerMemberName] string propertyName = null)
        {
            PropertyChanged?.Invoke(this, new PropertyChangedEventArgs(propertyName));
        }
        private ICollectionView _employeeCollection;

                var empDetails = new EmployeeDetail
                {
                    ID = data[0],
                    Name = data[1],
                    Age = data[2],

                    Address = data[4]

            UpdateRecordCount();

        {

            foreach (var item in enumerable)
            {
                LstEmployeeDetail.Add(item);
            }
        }

        IEnumerable<string> ReadCSV(string filePath)
        {
            using (StreamReader reader = new StreamReader(filePath))
            {
                string line = string.Empty;
                while ((line = reader.ReadLine()) != null)
                {
                    var record = line.Trim();
                    if (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(record))
                        yield return record;

        public List<EmployeeDetail> LstOfRecords { get; private set; } = new List<EmployeeDetail>();

        int RecordStartFrom = 0;

        #endregion
    }

Now lets implementation the ICommand which we have used in ViewModel Commands.

  class Command : ICommand
    {
        public Command(Func<object, bool> methodCanExecute, Action<object> methodExecute)
        {
            MethodCanExecute = methodCanExecute;
            MethodExecute = methodExecute;
        }
        Action<object> MethodExecute;
        Func<object, bool> MethodCanExecute;
        public event EventHandler CanExecuteChanged;

        public bool CanExecute(object parameter)
        {
            return MethodExecute != null && MethodCanExecute.Invoke(parameter);
        }

        public void Execute(object parameter)
        {
            MethodExecute(parameter);
        }
    }
