I'm having an issue with a basic blazor project. I have a parent component and a child component with an event callback where I want it to pass back a type of T. The issue I'm having is that I have an error about converting MethodGroup to EventCallback. If I convert this to using Action then it works but I can't do it async which isn't ideal. Any ideas what I'm doing wrong?
Parent
<Child
DeleteCallback="@OnDelete"></Child>
public async Task OnDelete(T item)
{
}
Child
@typeparam T
[Parameter]
public EventCallback<T> DeleteCallback { get; set; }
<a @onclick="() => DeleteCallback.InvokeAsync(item)"></a>
I've added a repo here explaining the problem. Looking at the Issues for Blazor, this should;ve been fixed in 2019. https://github.com/scott-david-walker/EventCallbackError
You were close:
<ChildComponent Item="someModel" T="SomeModel" DeleteCallback="OnDeleteSomeModel" />
@code {
SomeModel someModel = new SomeModel();
void OnDeleteSomeModel(SomeModel someModel)
{
...
}
}
The EventCallback uses a generic type and blazor cannot infer it if you don't pass the type to the component.
This means that if you have a EventCallback<T>
you need to pass the value of T
to the component e.g. T="SomeType"
.
I found the issue its because your using a templated component it is having trouble with the public EventCallback<T> DeleteCallback, You need to declare the type of T not just infer it by usage. I'll update my answer
That did the trick, cheers for the help. That was an annoying one :-)
