Say you have a xaml page that takes two inputs such as DATE and some TEXT value and displays the result on a DataGrid, its easy to have a class with with 3 properties of dataTypes DateTime, string and some Collection and implement the same in MVVM.
I have a xaml page with a DataGrid and few input controls(like textbox or datepicker) generated dynamically based on a certain criteria. I want to implement this in a MVVM pattern but not sure how to go about. Any pointers will be helpful.
In my experience, MVVM is not answer for all presentation scenarios, sometimes you just have to use codebehind or build custom control. I would suggest here building custom control that takes (binds with dependency property) object or list of objects, and generates controls (text boxes with input validation/verification, for ints, doubles, date picker, etc), and binds given object to them. In the end you will have one smart control that takes object and renders input fields, and binds to them. Your VM class would just expose object or list of objects.
