Creates a view based on the specified System.Collections.Specialized.INotifyCollectionChanged data source.

Syntax

Visual Basic
C#

'Declaration
 
Public Overloads Shared Function AsLive(Of T)( _
   ByVal source As System.Collections.Specialized.INotifyCollectionChanged _
) As View(Of T)

public static View<T> AsLive<T>( 
   System.Collections.Specialized.INotifyCollectionChanged source
)

Parameters

source: The System.Collections.Specialized.INotifyCollectionChanged data source to expose as a view.

Type Parameters

T: The type of the elements in the view.

Return Value

A view that contains the same elements as the System.Collections.Specialized.INotifyCollectionChanged data source.

Remarks

Use this method to build views from existing data sources implementing System.Collections.Specialized.INotifyCollectionChanged. The element type of this data source must implement System.ComponentModel.INotifyPropertyChanged, see Using the built-in collection class IndexedCollection(T) (LiveLinq to Objects)|tag=Using_the_built_in_collection_class_IndexedCollectionT_LiveLinq_to_Objects.

The resulting view may have its elements ordered differently than they are ordered in the source. Correspondingly, views built on this resulting view (for example, if you filter it with Where) will not preserve the source order either. If you need to preserve the source order, consider using the other AsLive overload where you can specify to what extent you need the order to be preserved.

Requirements

Target Platforms: Windows 7, Windows Vista SP1 or later, Windows XP SP3, Windows Server 2008 (Server Core not supported), Windows Server 2008 R2 (Server Core supported with SP1 or later), Windows Server 2003 SP2
