MVVM Exception Handling

问题

I have a WPF Application that I have been trying to write in the MVVM style. If an Exception is thrown (like when a document is opened), I would like to display a MessageBox. Easy to do, but my code doesn't feel quite right because the MessageBox.Show call is in the ModelView. I thought that sort of thing is supposed to live in the View, but I'm not supposed to put code in the View.

So the question really can be distilled down to what is the suggested way to display a MessageBox in MVVM?

回答1:

Use a service:

public void SomeMethodInYourViewModel()
{
    try
    {
        DoSomethingDangerous();
    }
    catch (Exception ex)
    {
        ServiceLocator.Resolve<IMessageService>().ShowMessage(ex.Message);
    }
}

You have now decoupled your VMs from the presentation of messages. You may even decide not to use the standard (ugly) message boxes at all and that won't affect your VMs.

Have a look at Josh Smith's excellent MVVM Foundation on Codeplex. Specifically, have a look at the Messenger class, a lightweight way of passing messages between various ViewModel objects who do not need to be aware of each other.

Also, I don't believe there is a hard-and-fast rule on "No code in the View", although it's best to be avoided if possible... remember that your XAML is simply .net code written in a declarative syntax; the code-behind is just C# or VB.net to supplement that (if absolutely necessary!)

You might also like to just put an ErrorMessage string property on your ViewModel class that your View can bind to.
