Observable collection without INotifyProperChanged for one way binding

Question

For Silverlight or WPF when control is bound to Observable collection , and I am only interested in collection additions/deletions to be reflected in a control - i.e. one way binding - am I right in thinking that there is no need for INotifyPropertyChanged in a class the collection is comprised of. But changes to the existing element of collection won't be reflected in user interface in this case.

Answer 1

If I understand you well, yes you can have items that don't implement INotifyPropertyChanged in an ObservableCollection. Any list control bound to the collection will be correctly updated in terms of items added/removed, but any changes in any of your items' properties won't be reflected to the UI.
