Thank you Jesse for this excellent component! I am using Nhibernate in most of my latest projects.
There always an issue to bind domain object to the UI. ObjectListView helps a lot for supporting databinding
on my UI. I do like to see a version for WPF.

Excellent work, Jesse! Very appreciate!

Hi Jesse,

I was wondering if you delve into some depth on data binding to cutom objects in your blog. I am currently using databinding techniques to bind my business object collection to a listbox on the left pane and a details view of the selected object on the right pane. I also have a navigator control on the form.

The problem i am facing is that databinding automatically updates my object when the user changes the values. I want to be able to validate the changes data before updating my object. And the validation requires that i have all the new values to be able to validate the form i.e. the validity of the value in textbox1 depends on the values in textbox2 and conmbobox1. I am not able to find any way to do this currently. Most examples use a datatable which has a RejectChanges() function to discard the user changes but my object does not currently have any such functions. I tried creating something like a wrapper class that will fake or simulate the properties on the wrapped object using ITypedList, but that did not work either. I could send you the code if you want to take a look at it.

Thank You,
Vish
