How to work with Prism using the EventToCommandBehavior in Xamarin.Forms ListView (SfListView)

1 min read

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

The prism EventToCommandBehavior will pass the CommandParameterEventArgsParameterPath and EventArgsConverter as parameters. The parameter would be null in the Command execute method, if no value is passed to these parameters.

XAML

Add Prism Framework EventToCommandBehavior to ListView. Use EventArgsConverter to pass EventArgs to the Command by default.

</ContentPage>

C#

Returns the value that is the actual event parameter.

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();
        }
    }
}
