This type of CollectionView does not support chang

Question

I have a DataGrid which is populating data from ViewModel by asynchronous method.My DataGrid is :

<DataGrid ItemsSource="{Binding MatchObsCollection}"  x:Name="dataGridParent" 
                      Style="{StaticResource EfesDataGridStyle}" 
                      HorizontalGridLinesBrush="#DADADA" VerticalGridLinesBrush="#DADADA" Cursor="Hand" AutoGenerateColumns="False" 
                      RowDetailsVisibilityMode="Visible"  >

I am using http://www.amazedsaint.com/2010/10/asynchronous-delegate-command-for-your.html to implement asynchronous way in my viewmodel.

Here is my viewmodel code:

public class MainWindowViewModel:WorkspaceViewModel,INotifyCollectionChanged
    {        

        MatchBLL matchBLL = new MatchBLL();
        EfesBetServiceReference.EfesBetClient proxy = new EfesBetClient();

        public ICommand DoSomethingCommand { get; set; }
        public MainWindowViewModel()
        {
            DoSomethingCommand = new AsyncDelegateCommand(
                () => Load(), null, null,
                (ex) => Debug.WriteLine(ex.Message));           
            _matchObsCollection = new ObservableCollection<EfesBet.DataContract.GetMatchDetailsDC>();                

        }       

        List<EfesBet.DataContract.GetMatchDetailsDC> matchList;
        ObservableCollection<EfesBet.DataContract.GetMatchDetailsDC> _matchObsCollection;

        public ObservableCollection<EfesBet.DataContract.GetMatchDetailsDC> MatchObsCollection
        {
            get { return _matchObsCollection; }
            set
            {
                _matchObsCollection = value;
                OnPropertyChanged("MatchObsCollection");
            }
        }        
        //
        public void Load()
        {            
            matchList = new List<GetMatchDetailsDC>();
            matchList = proxy.GetMatch().ToList();

            foreach (EfesBet.DataContract.GetMatchDetailsDC match in matchList)
            {
                _matchObsCollection.Add(match);
            }

        }

As you can see in my Load() method in my ViewModel first I am getting matchList (which is a list of a DataContract Class) from my Service.Then by foreach loop I am inserting my matchList items to my _matchObsCollection(which is an ObservableCollection of DataContract Class)).Now here I am getting the above error (as I shown in Title) "This type of CollectionView does not support changes to its SourceCollection from a thread different from the Dispatcher thread"

Can anyone suggest me any solution.Moreover if possible I would like to know how to bind my DataGrid in View and also refresh it asynchronously if any better way is there.

In my case (I populate ObservableCollection with asynchronous tasks and do not have access to App instance) I use TaskScheduler.FromCurrentSynchronizationContext() to cleanup the collection on faulted:

        // some main task
        Task loadFileTask = Task.Factory.StartNew(...);

        Task cleanupTask = loadFileTask.ContinueWith(
            (antecedent) => { CleanupFileList(); },
            /* do not cancel this task */
            CancellationToken.None,
            /* run only if faulted main task */
            TaskContinuationOptions.OnlyOnFaulted,
            /* use main SynchronizationContext */
            TaskScheduler.FromCurrentSynchronizationContext());

If you are using BackgroundWorker you should raise the event in the same thread of the UI.

For i.e. if you have two views A and B and the following code inside A raises the event WakeUpEvent

//Code inside codebehind or viewmodel of A
    var worker = new BackgroundWorker();
    worker.DoWork += WorkerDoWork; //<-- Don't raise the event WakeUpEvent inside this method
    worker.RunWorkerCompleted += workerRunWorkerCompleted; // <-- Raise the event WakeUpEvent inside this method instead
    worker.RunWorkerAsync();

//Code inside codebehind or viewmodel of view B
    public ViewB () {
        WakeUpEvent += UpdateUICallBack;
    }
    private void UpdateUICallBack() {
        //Update here UI element
    }

The WorkerDoWork method is executed in a thread that is not the same of the UI.
