Non shareable resources

[Paul Stovell]

Hi all,

I was positive that you used to be able to mark an entry in a Resources dictionary as being "non shareable". Something like this:

<Window.Resources>
    <Blah NonShareable="True" x:Key="Foo" />
</Window.Resources>

I don't remember the precise name of the attribute, and I'm having a hard time looking it up.

My goal is that when accessing the resource from a style's setter, it should create a new instance each time, to avoid the dreaded: "Specified element is already the logical child of another element. Disconnect it first."

I’m pretty sure it’s x:Shared=”False”.

Confirm: x:Shared="False"

Thank you Josh and Corrado, this has finally solved a problem I've been battling with for the last 6 hours :)

For some reason the extended x: attributes don't show in the XAML intellisense nor resharper, and googling "wpf resourcedictionary share" doesn't help. Trust the disciples to come to my rescue :-)

Paul,

 

I wanted to check if it was due to Resharper, but even in the “standard” Intellisense, the x:Shared attribute doesn’t show up. Is that a bug? I’ll ask Rob Relyea.

 

Cheers,

Laurent

One of my presentations about WPF includes showing how to use x:Shared="False" and it inevitable comes as a surprise, even to seasoned WPF devs.  The Intellisense in Cider should show it.  No reason not to.

I wonder if it's like Dispatcher.VerifyAccess()/CheckAccess() having the [EditorBrowsable(EditorBrowsableState.Never)] attribute set.  Thats a Scooby-Doo caliber mystery in itself.

the x:Shared never worked in my intellisense and I never had resharper on this machine....
