How to use MVVM-Light with tokens?

Question

I see in the MVVM-Light package that I can send messages with tokens- what I need to do is send an object, with a message attached to that object- like Add, Edit, Delete wha

Answer 1

Just as an addition: The token is not meant to identify a task (notification), but rather a receiver. The receiver(s) who register(s) with the same token as the sender will get the message, while all other receivers won't get it.

For what you want to do, I use the optional NotificationMessage type included in the toolkit. It has an additional string property (Notification) that you can set to anything you want. I use this to "give orders" to the receiver.
