CheckChannels

Documentation: CheckChannels Module Interfaces

1. Purpose

This module defines the interface contracts for the CheckChannels feature within the DTS UI framework. It establishes a clean separation of concerns between view and view model layers for both the main CheckChannels UI and its associated ribbon menu component. The interfaces ICheckChannelsView, ICheckChannelsViewModel, ICheckChannelsMenuView, and ICheckChannelsMenuViewModel collectively enable dependency inversion and testability for the feature’s UI components, allowing concrete implementations to be injected and swapped without tight coupling.

2. Public Interface

All interfaces are marker interfaces—they inherit from base interfaces but declare no additional members.

• ICheckChannelsView : IBaseView
  Marker interface for the view component of the CheckChannels feature. Indicates that a class serves as the UI layer (e.g., a WPF UserControl or Window) for the core CheckChannels functionality.

• ICheckChannelsViewModel : IBaseViewModel
  Marker interface for the view model of the CheckChannels feature. Indicates that a class encapsulates the UI state and behavior for the core CheckChannels functionality.

• ICheckChannelsMenuView : IRibbonView
  Marker interface for the ribbon menu view associated with the CheckChannels feature. Indicates that a class provides the UI for ribbon-based menu items (e.g., buttons, dropdowns) related to CheckChannels.

• ICheckChannelsMenuViewModel : IRibbonViewModel
  Marker interface for the ribbon menu view model. Indicates that a class manages the state and logic for ribbon menu items in the CheckChannels context.

Note

: No methods, properties, or events are declared in any of these interfaces. Behavior and data contracts are inherited from IBaseView, IBaseViewModel, IRibbonView, and IRibbonViewModel.

3. Invariants

• All four interfaces are pure marker interfaces with no additional contract beyond their base interface inheritance.
• Implementations of ICheckChannelsView and ICheckChannelsMenuView must be compatible with their respective base view interfaces (IBaseView, IRibbonView)—e.g., supporting view lifecycle, data binding, or ribbon-specific behaviors as defined by those bases.
• Implementations of ICheckChannelsViewModel and ICheckChannelsMenuViewModel must conform to the semantics of IBaseViewModel and IRibbonViewModel, respectively (e.g., property change notification, command exposure).
• No ordering, initialization, or dependency guarantees are specified within this module—these are determined by the base interfaces and consumer code.

4. Dependencies

• Depends on:
  • DTS.Common.Base (for IBaseView, IBaseViewModel)
  • DTS.Common.RibbonControl (for IRibbonView, IRibbonViewModel)
• Used by:
  • UI framework code that resolves or injects view/view model implementations via these interfaces (e.g., DI containers, view-first navigation logic).
  • Concrete implementations of the CheckChannels feature (e.g., CheckChannelsView : ICheckChannelsView) and its ribbon menu counterpart.
• No direct dependencies on other DTS modules beyond the base and ribbon control layers.

5. Gotchas

• No behavior defined here: These interfaces convey no operational semantics—developers must inspect IBaseView, IBaseViewModel, IRibbonView, and IRibbonViewModel to understand expected behavior (e.g., property change patterns, command wiring).
• Risk of over-abstraction: The use of marker interfaces may obscure intent; ensure naming (CheckChannels vs. CheckChannelsMenu) is consistently applied across implementations to avoid confusion.
• Ribbon-specific semantics: ICheckChannelsMenuView inherits from IRibbonView, implying integration with a ribbon UI framework (e.g., DevExpress, Fluent.Ribbon). Consumers must ensure ribbon-specific requirements (e.g., RibbonControl initialization order) are respected.
• No versioning or extensibility signals: Changes to the underlying base interfaces (IBaseView, IRibbonViewModel, etc.) may silently affect implementations—tight coupling to base contracts is implicit.

None identified beyond the above.
