Question

I’ve a class like this:

public class PersonViewModel : ViewModelBase //Here is the INotifyPropertyChanged Stuff
{
    public PersonViewModel(Person person)
    {
        PersonEntity = person;
    }

    public Person PersonEntity { 
        get { return PersonEntity.Name; }
        private set { PersonEntity.Name = value; RaisePropertyChanged("PersonEntity");
    }

    public string Name { 
        get { return PersonEntity.Name; }
        set { PersonEntity.Name = value; RaisePropertyChanged("Name");
    } 
    public int Age{ 
        get { return PersonEntity.Age; }
        set { PersonEntity.Age= value; RaisePropertyChanged("Age");
    } 

    public void ChangePerson(Person newPerson)
    {
        //Some Validation..
        PersonEntity = newPerson;
    }

My TextBoxes are bound to Name and Age of the ViewModel.
If I change the _person object in the ViewModel, do I have to call for each Property a RaisePropertyChanged again or is there a way to do this automaticly (in my concret example I have about 15 Properties..)?

Thanks for any help.

Cheers
Joseph

You can indicate all properties have changed by using null or string.Empty for the property name in PropertyChangedEventArgs. This is mentioned in the documentation for PropertyChanged.
