How to refresh items at runtime using Timer in .NET MAUI ListView(SfListView) ?
The .NET MAUI ListView allows you to refresh items at runtime by updating the ItemsSource at specific time intervals using the PropertyChanged event.
The following example illustrates how to change the ItemsSource using the PropertyChanged event by timer.
C#
public class Behavior : Behavior<ContentPage> { #region Fields private Syncfusion.Maui.ListView.SfListView listView; #endregion #region Overrides protected override void OnAttachedTo(ContentPage bindable) { InitializeTimer(); listView = bindable.FindByName<Syncfusion.Maui.ListView.SfListView>("listView"); listView.PropertyChanged += ListView_PropertyChanged; base.OnAttachedTo(bindable); } private void ListView_PropertyChanged(object sender, PropertyChangedEventArgs e) { if (e.PropertyName == "ItemsSource") InitializeTimer(); } private async void InitializeTimer() { await WaitAndExecute(2000, () => { var viewmodel = new ContactInfoRepository(); listView.ItemsSource = viewmodel.ContactInfo; }); } private async Task WaitAndExecute(int milisec, Action actionToExecute) { await Task.Delay(milisec); actionToExecute(); } protected override void OnDetachingFrom(ContentPage bindable) { listView = null; base.OnDetachingFrom(bindable); } #endregion }
