C # WPF UI freezes when data binding to Listbox
hi I am using DataTable for data binding with List of Rows DataTable = 1000+ and I need to load the whole row.
and when I tie
// Inside BackgroundThread
DataTable table = GetDataFromServer(); // Get Data (DataTable row count = 1000+)
this.Dispatcher.Invoke(new Action(() =>
{
FilteredList.DataContext = table ; // UI Hangs Progress bar freeze around 20-30+ seconds
}), DispatcherPriority.Background);

Should I use ObservationCollection or any other design pattern to solve the freeze problem?
