WPF ListView: Attaching a double-click (on an item) event

Question

I have the following ListView:

<ListView Name="TrackListView">
    <ListView.View>
        <GridView>
            <GridViewColumn Header="Title" Width="100" HeaderTemplate="{StaticResource BlueHeader}" DisplayMemberBinding="{Binding Name}"/>
            <GridViewColumn Header="Artist" Width="100" HeaderTemplate="{StaticResource BlueHeader}" DisplayMemberBinding="{Binding Album.Artist.Name}" />
        </GridView>
    </ListView.View>
</ListView>

My question is, how can I attach an event to every bound item that will fire on double-clicking the item?

Answer 1

In your example are you trying to catch when an item in your ListView is selected or when a column header is clicked on? If it's the former you would add a SelectionChanged handler.

<ListView Name="TrackListView" SelectionChanged="MySelectionChanged">

If it's the latter you would have to use some combination of MouseLeftButtonUp or MouseLeftButtonDown events on the GridViewColumn items to detect a double click and take appropriate action. Alternatively you could handle the events on the GridView and work out from there which column header was under the mouse.

XAML:

<UserControl.Resources>
    <Style x:Key="itemstyle" TargetType="{x:Type ListViewItem}">
        <EventSetter Event="MouseDoubleClick" Handler="HandleDoubleClick" />
    </Style>
</UserControl.Resources>

<ListView Name="TrackListView" ItemContainerStyle="{StaticResource itemstyle}">
    <ListView.View>
        <GridView>
            <GridViewColumn Header="Title" Width="100" HeaderTemplate="{StaticResource BlueHeader}" DisplayMemberBinding="{Binding Name}"/>
            <GridViewColumn Header="Artist" Width="100" HeaderTemplate="{StaticResource BlueHeader}" DisplayMemberBinding="{Binding Album.Artist.Name}" />
        </GridView>
    </ListView.View>
</ListView>

C#:

protected void HandleDoubleClick(object sender, MouseButtonEventArgs e)
{
    var track = ((ListViewItem) sender).Content as Track; //Casting back to the binded Track
}

Answer 3

Why ListView.AddHandle(ListViewItem.MouseDoubleClick, xxx) doesn't work?
