WPF MVVM Routed Events

There is a lot of discussion about MV-VM and command binding (RelayCommand), but not much has to do with binding Routed Events to a handler in the MV-VM pattern. I want to find the best approach.

Here is an example of a RoutedEvent binding using a custom event and an associated event handler for a virtual machine.

<Navigation:LeftNavigation x:Name="_leftNav" Margin="3"
            BindingHelper:EventHelper.RoutedEvent="Events:Customer.SelectionChanged"
            BindingHelper:EventHelper.EventHandler="{Binding SelectionChanged}" />

      

In my Vm, I would have an event handler similar to this one.

public void SelectionChanged(object sender, CustomerSelectionChangedArgs e)
{
    // Do something
}

      

This is just a concept taken from many examples from command binding. How can I get this to work for routed events.

You can check this article where the author implements a similar syntax:



<Border Background="Yellow" Width="350" Margin="0,0,10,0" Height="35" CornerRadius="2" x:Name="test">
  <local:CommandBehaviorCollection.Behaviors>
    <local:BehaviorBinding Event="MouseLeftButtonDown" Action="{Binding DoSomething}" CommandParameter="An Action on MouseLeftButtonDown"/>
    <local:BehaviorBinding Event="MouseRightButtonDown" Command="{Binding SomeCommand}" CommandParameter="A Command on MouseRightButtonDown"/>
  </local:CommandBehaviorCollection.Behaviors>
  <TextBlock Text="MouseDown on this border to execute the command"/>
</Border>
