MVVMCross How is this view related to ViewModel?

Question

I am trying to understand why I get an error message that I can’t find the correct ViewModel when I launch the iOS application.

I have a question when I look at this example . I do not understand where MainMenuView binds to MainMenuViewModel.

Can someone answer this to me?

Thanks,

Answer 1

They are connected by class names: for XXXView, XXXViewModel must match

Answer 2

I just want to add to the answer: double-check the view names after renaming (even renaming Resharper is not perfect). Several tens of minutes passed (and beer), catching a similar error MvvmCross Could not find view for %ViewModelName% .

Answer 3

For those who end up here with the same problem as me. I was getting this error in an Android project because my (properly named) view extended Activity, not MvxActivity (this happens easily when you use the Xamarin Studio function “Add Android Activity”)

Answer 4

I get this from a project that I just upgraded to MvvmCross 4. I don’t have much experience with MvvmCross, and the project has not been supported for several years, so maybe something else is wrong.

I ended up hardcoding the mappings in Setup :: InitializeViewLookup because I don't have time to spend on it anymore.
