View Binding Failures in Rider

[Doodeletion]

How to get notified of binding failures when developing with rider?

I was having issues with my UI and didn't even realize I was encountering a binding failure. I know that binding failures are printed to the debug output, but they are hard to spot there and you don't get notified about them.

Is there a better way to view/get notified about binding failures?
I'm already using compiled bindings.

I didn't have those issues until today when I use compiled bindings. However what I can suggest is to add some logging and add a TraceListener. This should give you some more readable output.

Thanks, I did not know about TraceListeners.

I did some searching and found your guide on logging.
I also found some examples on setting up trace listeners for WPF. They added the listener to PresentationTraceSources.DataBindingSource.

How would I go about doing something similar in Avalonia (as PresentationTraceSources is not available)?

Should I add a custom logging sink that filters binding errors and logs them to a separate file while forwarding everything else to the default sink? I think I'd have to copy TraceLogSink for that as it is internal.
