Windows Phone, Windows 8 and Fody

Read original post by Scott Lovegrove at Windows Phone 7 Nuggets

Those doing development for Windows Phone or Windows 8 and using an MVVM approach will be familiar with their ViewModels having properties that look something like this

private string progressText;

public string ProgressText

{

    get { return progressText; }

    set

    {

        if (value != progressText)

        {

            progressText = value;

            NotifyPropertyChanged("ProgressText");

        }

    }

}
