Question

I have figured out how to close Window from my ViewModel.

Now I need to solve window close problem from the other side.

I need to trigger Save() method in my ViewModel when the user clicks window’s close button.

I was thinking about binding Command property to Window’s close event, but my ViewModel is related to the user control and in that case Close command will not be executed.

I was looking at this question as well Disposing WPF User Controls , but I’m afraid that putting Save method call in Dispose method is a little bit too late.

Is there any way to solve this problem?

Thank You very much!

I think the best solution for this would be to register the ViewModel at an event of your control which is also registered at the closed event of you window. This way you can also register other ViewModels at the windowClosed Event in the future to raise other save() Methods in other ViewModels
