How To Work With Prism Using The Eventtocommandbehavior In Xamarin.Forms Listview (Sflistview)

Updated on Sep 13, 2025

You can pass the default event argument as parameter when using Prism Framework EventToCommandBehavior in Xamarin.Forms SfListView.

The prism EventToCommandBehavior will pass the parameter based on the CommandParameter, EventArgsParameterPath and EventArgsConverter. The parameter will be null in the Command execute method, if no value passed to these parameters.

XAML

Refer the Prism Framework EventToCommandBehavior for ListView. Use EventArgsConverter to pass the default EventArgs to the Command.

Return the value which is the actual parameter of the Event.

namespace ListViewXamarin.Helper
{
    public class Converter : IValueConverter
    {
        public object Convert(object value, Type targetType, object parameter, CultureInfo culture)
        {
            return value;
        }

        public object ConvertBack(object value, Type targetType, object parameter, CultureInfo culture)
        {
            throw new NotImplementedException();
        }
    }
}
