Prism - Published Event not being subscribed

Dec 25 2016 3:08 AM

I am writing my code in WPF where I have two view models. In one view model, I am closing a prism pop up window and on close I am calling my publishing method like:

private void OnCancelInteraction() {    _eventAggregator.GetEvent<PubSubEvent>().Publish(); this.FinishInteraction(); }

while my subscribe event goes like this:

public ResidentListViewModel(IResidentService residentService, IUserService userService, IEventAggregator eventAggregator) { var res =   eventAggregator.GetEvent<PubSubEvent>().Subscribe(InitializeCollectionView);      _residentService = residentService;      _userService = userService;      _eventAggregator = eventAggregator; InitializeCollectionView(); //***The InteractionRequest class  FormDialogOpenRequest = new InteractionRequest<INotification>(); ConfirmationRequest = new InteractionRequest<IConfirmation>(); //*** Commands for each of the buttons RaiseFormDialogOpenCommand = new DelegateCommand<object>(this.RaiseFormDialogOpen);      aiseConfirmationCommand = new DelegateCommand<object>(this.RaiseConfirmation); }

Here is how both of these classes are receiving event aggregator:

UnityContainer container = new UnityContainer(); var aggregator = container.Resolve<EventAggregator>(); this.DataContext = new ResidentFormDialogViewModel(residentService, userService, unitService, aggregator);

here is my second class:

UnityContainer container = new UnityContainer(); var aggregator = container.Resolve<EventAggregator>(); DataContext = new ResidentListViewModel(residentService, userService, aggregator);

Every time I cancel my interaction, the publishing gets published but ResidentListViewModel is not being called as for subscribing.

ResidentListViewModel is being called before the other class which has subscribe method. Could it be a problem? All I want is to Initialize my collection view whenever the interaction gets finished without breaking the MVVM Pattern? If there is any other method please do suggest.
