Mvvmcross: UITextview binding - missing source event info in MvxWeakEventSubscription Parameter name: sourceEventInfo

[kenigj]

I still get an exception when I try to create a binding for the Text property on the UITextView.
If I remove the Line set.Bind(this.MessageTextView).To(vm => vm.Message); everything works.

Steps to reproduce :scroll:

1.Create a view with a UITextView on it.

2.Create a binding for the Text property on the UITextView

var set = this.CreateBindingSet<ContactView, ContactViewModel>();

set.Bind(this.NameTextField).To(vm => vm.Name);
set.Bind(this.FirstNameTextField).To(vm => vm.Firstname);
set.Bind(this.EmailTextField).To(vm => vm.Email);
set.Bind(this.MessageTextView).To(vm => vm.Message);
set.Bind(this.SendButton).To(vm => vm.SendFeedbackCommand);

set.Apply();

LinkerPleaseInclude:

...
        public void Include(UITextView textView)
        {
            textView.Text = textView.Text + "";            
            textView.Changed += (sender, args) => { textView.Text = ""; };            
        } 
...

3.Exception will happen as soon as Apply() is being called

Expected behavior :thinking:

View should be presented with TextView in it, and RaisePropertyChanged is triggered every time a character is typed.

Actual behavior :bug:

Fatal exception as soon as the view is about to be presented.

You will need to add

textView.TextStorage.DidProcessEditing += (sender, e) => textView.Text = "";

to your LinkerPleaseInclude

Thanks @Plac3hold3r! You've solved my problem.

@kenigj @Plac3hold3r Thanks guys!

This was added to the nuspec content here #2481.

The fix suggested by @Plac3hold3r did not work for me. But I am using the XamarinSidebar which contains the LinkerPleaseInclude. Would this be causing the problem? Because I only modified the LinkerPleaseInclude on my iOS app as the XamarinSidebar one is installed as a nuget package
