I'm trying to embed Forms XAML view into Xamarin Native application with MvvmCross 6.0.
I tried to reproduce effect of this solution but I got stuck on registering IMvxFormsViewPresenter. I also followed this tutorial.
I have simple MainContainerActivity with MainFragment (with corresponding MainViewModel in Core) that contains a button to Forms SettingsActivity/SettingsViewModel.
Full source can be found in the test repository.
Currently, I struggle with an exception thrown in base.OnCreate(bundle); while navigating to SettingsViewModel:
MvvmCross.Exceptions.MvxIoCResolveException has been thrown
Failed to resolve type MvvmCross.Forms.Presenters.IMvxFormsViewPresenter
I cannot find a way to register this Forms Presenter. I tried to do it in Setup but with no success.
I also tried to resolve MvxFormsAndroidViewPresenter in SplashActivity but Mvx.Resolve<IMvxViewPresenter>() as MvxFormsAndroidViewPresenter; yields null.
Do you have any idea what should I do to incorporate Forms views into MvvmCross 6.0 native application?
namespace MvvmCrossFormsEmbedding.Droid.Views
{
[Activity(Theme = "@style/AppTheme",
Label = "SettingsActivity")]
public class SettingsActivity : MvxFormsAppCompatActivity<SettingsViewModel>
{
public static SettingsActivity Instance { get; private set; }
protected override void OnCreate(Bundle bundle)
{
base.OnCreate(bundle);
// #1 Initialize
Forms.Init(this, null);
SetContentView(Resource.Layout.activity_settings);
var toolbar = FindViewById<Toolbar>(Resource.Id.layout_toolbar);
SupportActionBar.Title = "Settings";
Instance = this;
// #2 Use it
var frag = new SettingsView().CreateFragment(this);
var ft = FragmentManager.BeginTransaction();
ft.Replace(Resource.Id.fragment_frame_layout, frag, "main");
ft.Commit();
}
}
}
