My Window will not be garbage collected if it has a child of type FormulaEditorDialog.
For a simplified example call the following two event handlers on buttons of any dialog.
WeakReference _WeakRef = null;
private void OnCheck(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
{
GC.Collect();
GC.WaitForPendingFinalizers();
if(_WeakRef.IsAlive)
throw new Exception("Window alive!");
}
private void OnDialog(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
Window dlg = new Window();
dlg.Content = new FormulaEditorDialog(); // with this line dlg lives forever
_WeakRef = new WeakReference(dlg);
if(dlg.ShowDialog() == true)
The window will stay alive, if it has content of type FormulaEditorDialog.
Do you have any workaround or solution for this problem?
TIA
Michael
