How to: Raise Change Notifications Using a BindingSource and the INotifyPropertyChanged Interface

The BindingSource component will automatically detect changes in a data source when the type contained in the data source implements the INotifyPropertyChanged interface and raises PropertyChanged events when a property value is changed. This is useful because controls bound to the BindingSource will then automatically update as the data source values change.

NoteNote

If your data source implements INotifyPropertyChanged and you are performing asynchronous operations, you should not make changes to the data source on a background thread. Instead, you should read the data on a background thread and merge the data into a list on the UI thread.

Example

The following code example demonstrates a simple implementation of the INotifyPropertyChanged interface. It also shows how the BindingSource automatically passes a data source change to a bound control when the BindingSource is bound to a list of the INotifyPropertyChanged type.

' raise change notifications, however the DemoCustomer type 
' in the list does.

    ' of the list.
