Using Aspect-Oriented Programming to Initialize and Connect WPF Commands: Listing 1.
Creating the DelegateCommand.
var mi = invocation.TargetType.GetMethod(ExecutePrefix + methodName,
BindingFlags.NonPublic | BindingFlags.Public | BindingFlags.Instance);
var parameters = mi.GetParameters();
Type commandType;
Type canExecuteType;
Type delegateCommandType;
if (parameters.Length != 1)
{
commandType = typeof(Action);
canExecuteType = typeof(Func<bool>);
delegateCommandType = typeof(DelegateCommand);
}
else
{
var parameterType = parameters[0].ParameterType;
commandType = typeof(Action<>).MakeGenericType(parameterType);
canExecuteType = typeof(Predicate<>).MakeGenericType(parameterType);
delegateCommandType = typeof(DelegateCommand<>).MakeGenericType(parameterType);
}
var commandDelegate = Delegate.CreateDelegate(commandType,
invocation.InvocationTarget,
ExecutePrefix + methodName);
var canExecuteDelegate = Delegate.CreateDelegate(canExecuteType,
invocation.InvocationTarget,
CanExecutePrefix + methodName, false, false);
var delegateCommand = Activator.CreateInstance(delegateCommandType,
canExecuteDelegate == null
? new object[] { commandDelegate }
: new object[] { commandDelegate, canExecuteDelegate });
commands.Add(key, delegateCommand);
invocation.ReturnValue = delegateCommand;
