MVVM light - how to access property in other view model

Question

I\'m using mvvm light to build a Silverlight application. Is there a code snippet that shows how to access a view model\'s property or command from within another view model

Answer 1

Another way is to use the overload of RaisePropertyChanged that also broadcasts the change. You would do this:

RaisePropertyChanged(() => MyProperty, oldValue, newValue, true);

Then in the subscriber:

Messenger.Default.Register>(this, Handler);

where T is the type of MyProperty.
