Best way to access main form from TasksInTabs example

[rtburke]

Hello,
I'm still very new to MVC# and would appreciate some help. The TasksInTabs example does more or less what I want but I am struggling with one particular aspect. If I want to update something on the main form outside the view in the TabControl how would you suggest I go about doing that? For example, the application logic might want to disable one of the tabs or to set the text in a status bar at the bottom of the form.

Thanks in advance for any help.

Hi,

As I undersand you want some changes happening in a child task to be propagated to the main task (specifically main form should reflect those changes).

When you start a child task from inside your main view controller/presenter you can subscribe to any events/changes happening in this task.

class MainViewController : ControllerBase<MainTask, IMainView>
...
    var t = Task.TasksManager.StartTask(typeof(TabTask2)) as TabTask2;
    t.StateChanged += (o, e) => View.DisplayStateChanged();

Kind regards,
