# TablesSettings
## 1. Purpose
This module defines the foundational interfaces for the *Tables Settings* feature within the systems UI layer. Specifically, `ITablesSettingsView` represents the view contract (likely for a UI component such as a dialog or panel) that displays and manages user-configurable settings related to database or data table structures, while `ITablesSettingsViewModel` serves as the corresponding view-model contract responsible for encapsulating the state, logic, and data-binding surface for that UI. Both interfaces extend base contracts (`IBaseView`, `IBaseViewModel`) from `DTS.Common.Base`, indicating adherence to a standard MVVM (Model-View-ViewModel) or similar architectural pattern used throughout the codebase.
## 2. Public Interface
No additional public members are declared beyond the interface declarations themselves.
- **`ITablesSettingsView`**
- *Signature*: `public interface ITablesSettingsView : IBaseView { }`
- *Behavior*: Serves as a marker interface for the view component implementing the Tables Settings UI. It inherits all contracts and expectations of `IBaseView` (e.g., lifecycle methods, data context binding, etc.), though the specifics of `IBaseView` are not included here and must be referenced separately.
- **`ITablesSettingsViewModel`**
- *Signature*: `public interface ITablesSettingsViewModel : IBaseViewModel { }`
- *Behavior*: Serves as a marker interface for the view-model associated with Tables Settings. It inherits all contracts and expectations of `IBaseViewModel` (e.g., property change notification, command exposure), though the specifics of `IBaseViewModel` are not included here and must be referenced separately.
> **Note**: Neither interface declares any properties, methods, or events in the provided source. All functionality is expected to be defined via their base interfaces (`IBaseView`, `IBaseViewModel`) or through concrete implementations.
## 3. Invariants
- `ITablesSettingsView` must be implemented by a class that conforms to the contract of `IBaseView`.
- `ITablesSettingsViewModel` must be implemented by a class that conforms to the contract of `IBaseViewModel`.
- The two interfaces are intended to be used as a paired view/view-model pair, likely bound at runtime (e.g., via dependency injection or a framework convention), though the binding mechanism is not specified here.
## 4. Dependencies
- **Depends on**:
- `DTS.Common.Base.IBaseView`
- `DTS.Common.Base.IBaseViewModel`
(Exact definitions of these base interfaces are not provided in the source and must be consulted elsewhere.)
- **Depended on by**:
- Likely consumed by a DI container or UI framework to resolve/view the Tables Settings feature.
- Concrete implementations (e.g., `TablesSettingsView`, `TablesSettingsViewModel`) would depend on these interfaces for decoupling.
- Other modules (e.g., navigation, settings management) may reference these interfaces to instantiate or coordinate the Tables Settings UI.
## 5. Gotchas
- **Ambiguity in naming**: The model interface is named `ITablesSettingsViewModel`, not `ITablesSettingsModel`, despite the file name `ITablesSettingsModel.cs`. This may cause confusion—ensure developers reference the *interface* name (`ITablesSettingsViewModel`) and not the file name.
- **No behavior exposed**: The interfaces are empty markers. Developers must inspect `IBaseView` and `IBaseViewModel` to understand expected functionality (e.g., `InitializeAsync`, `OnNavigatedTo`, `SaveAsync`, `CanSave`, etc.).
- **No validation or data contracts**: No table-specific properties (e.g., `TableDefinitions`, `SelectedTable`, `IsReadOnly`) are defined here—these would be implemented in concrete classes.
- **None identified from source alone.**
