You can try something like that. When I instantiate the TableViewSource, I
pass to it the items and the viewcontroller, that have a public method that
is called by RowSelected:
public ListViewSource (Form1 Parent, List<ListViewItem> rows)
{
this.Parent = Parent;
this.rows = rows;
// Code to mount items with or without sections
}
public override void RowSelected (UITableView tableView, NSIndexPath
indexPath)
{
Parent.listView_SelectedIndexChanged(null, null);
}
On parent class, I mean, ViewController parent of this source:
private void listView_SelectedIndexChanged(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
// Do something
}
Object sender and EventArgs aren't used here, but since to me it's the same
SelectedIndexChanged method of the Windows Mobile version, so it's there,
generated by VisualStudio 2 years ago from MonoTouch version. Soon just IB
things will be different than VisualStudio resource editor, the UI
manipulation will be exactly the same with a really few #ifs but it's
another story

The reason why the methods and events are in a particular location is
because that is what Apple designed for their api. MT is just trying to be
a thin layer within your application that allows your c# code to call into
the vendor based api. Sometimes the apple api leaves me scratching my head
as well, so you aren't alone there. The reason for doing this is that for
the users, MT apps look just like other apps on the iPhone. The other
reason is that this gives the developer access to all the existing code to
learn from in the iPhone/objc world.
Without access to my code right now and trying to pull some things from my
horrible memory, isn't there a RowSelected override that you implement and
an NSIndexPath that is handed into your overridden method? I think you can
use those to get the row that is selected.
