HOW TO USE

  • In Visual Studio, go to Tools -- Code Snippets Manager, choose Language to CSharp, then
    • Add a new (empty) folder for your custom code snippets (if you have not done it yet)
    • Import the downloaded props.snippet to the above location. (Can also copy the props.snippet manually to the above folder.)

  • Stylet is an excellent lightweight MVVM framework for WPF. The class that needs such a notifiable property should inherit at least Stylet.PropertyChangedBase that defines the SetAndNotify method.
  • In writing code, simply type "props" and tab twice to use the snippet. A generated example is pasted below
private string title;

public string Title
{
    get => title;
    set => SetAndNotify(ref title, value);
}
