IEditableCollectionView.AddNew Method

Definition

Adds a new item to the collection.

C#
public object AddNew();

Returns

The new item that is added to the collection.

Examples

The following example creates a Window that prompts the user to add a new item. Then it calls AddNew to create a new object and sets the DataContext of the Window to that object. For the entire sample, see Changing a Collection by Using IEditableCollectionView Sample.

C#
IEditableCollectionView editableCollectionView = 
    itemsControl.Items as IEditableCollectionView; 

if (!editableCollectionView.CanAddNew)
{
    MessageBox.Show("You cannot add items to the list.");
    return;
}

// Create a window that prompts the user to enter a new
// item to sell.
ChangeItemWindow win = new ChangeItemWindow();

//Create a new item to be added to the collection.
win.DataContext = editableCollectionView.AddNew();

// If the user submits the new item, commit the new
// object to the collection.  If the user cancels 
// adding the new item, discard the new item.
if ((bool)win.ShowDialog())
{
    editableCollectionView.CommitNew();
}
else
{
    editableCollectionView.CancelNew();
}

Remarks

Calling AddNew begins an add transaction. You should call CommitNew or CancelNew to end the add transaction. A new item always appears in the collection view. Any filtering, sorting, or grouping that is applied to the view is applied to the new item when CommitNew is called.
