MvvmLight messenger sometimes doesn't work when I use an anonymous action. If I pass a member variable or method as the action it works fine, but using an anonymous lambda or local variable doesn't work.
private SongCollection songCollection;
Action<bool> c;
public MyService(SongCollection songCollection)
{
this.songCollection = songCollection;
Action<bool> a = (bool isLoading) =>
{
ChangeSong(songCollection.GetFirstSong());
};
Action<bool> b = OnLoadingComplete; //Using this instead of 'a' works.
//c = a; //Uncommenting this line makes it work, even if using 'a'.
Messenger.Default.Register<bool>(this, "IsLoading", a); //Doesn't work.
}
I'm guessing it's something to do with garbage collection or the way MvvmLight does works behind the scenes. Or am I missing something obvious?
I'm using version MvvmLight 4.3.31.1 on .Net4.0.
