Feature name

Add TypedBindings to GesturesExtensions

Progress tracker

• Android Implementation
• iOS Implementation
• MacCatalyst Implementation
• Windows Implementation
• Tizen Implementation
• Unit Tests
• Samples
• Documentation: Add Gesture Extensions Bindings MicrosoftDocs/CommunityToolkit#272

Summary

This proposal augments GesturesExtensions by adding the following APIs that support Typed Bindings

• .BindClickGesture()
• .BindSwipeGesture()
• .BindTapGesture()

Motivation

This is a continuation of #155 adding the ability to use Typed Bindings in CommunityToolkit.Maui.Markup

Detailed Design

public static TGestureElement BindClickGesture<TGestureElement, TCommandBindingContext, TParameterBindingContext,
  TParameterSource>(
  this TGestureElement gestureElement,
  Expression<Func<TCommandBindingContext, ICommand>> getter,
  Action<TCommandBindingContext, ICommand>? setter = null,
  TCommandBindingContext? source = default,
  BindingMode commandBindingMode = BindingMode.Default,
  Expression<Func<TParameterBindingContext, TParameterSource>>? parameterGetter = null,
  Action<TParameterBindingContext, TParameterSource>? parameterSetter = null,
  BindingMode parameterBindingMode = BindingMode.Default,
  TParameterBindingContext? parameterSource = default,
  int? numberOfClicksRequired = null) where TGestureElement : BindableObject, IGestureRecognizers;

public static TGestureElement BindClickGesture<TGestureElement, TCommandBindingContext, TParameterBindingContext,
  TParameterSource>(

  TParameterBindingContext? parameterSource = default,
  int? numberOfClicksRequired = null) where TGestureElement : BindableObject, IGestureRecognizers;

public static TGestureElement BindTapGesture<TGestureElement, TCommandBindingContext, TParameterBindingContext,
  TParameterSource>(
  this TGestureElement gestureElement,
  Expression<Func<TCommandBindingContext, ICommand>> getter,
  Action<TCommandBindingContext, ICommand>? setter = null,

  Expression<Func<TParameterBindingContext, TParameterSource>>? parameterGetter = null,

  BindingMode parameterBindingMode = BindingMode.Default,
  TParameterBindingContext? parameterSource = default,
  int? numberOfClicksRequired = null) where TGestureElement : BindableObject, IGestureRecognizers;

public static TGestureElement BindTapGesture<TGestureElement, TCommandBindingContext, TParameterBindingContext,
  TParameterSource>(
  this TGestureElement gestureElement,
  Func<TCommandBindingContext, ICommand>> getter,
  (Func<TCommandBindingContext, object?>, string)[] handlers,

Usage Syntax

new Label().BindTapGesture(static (ViewModel vm) => vm.TapGestureCommand, mode: BindingMode.OneWay)

Drawbacks

None

Alternatives

The following APIs currently exist without support for Typed Bindings (require reflection):

• BindClickGesture
• BindSwipeGesture
• BindTapGesture
