AsyncObservableCollection<T> Class

Collecton class that ensures syncronisation between UI and background worker/loader thread.

Syntax

public class AsyncObservableCollection<T> : System.Collections.ObjectModel.ObservableCollection<T>

Type Parameters

T

Remarks

The standard ObservableCollection from Microsoft is not thread safe. If you create the instance of the collection on one thread, for example the user interface thread, and then try to manage the colletion on another thread, for example a background worker thread, the program will throw an exception. The AsyncObservableCollection<T> collection extends the ObservableCollection class and provides a number of methods that allow thread safe managment of the collection.
