Passing data from Popup

[tyler37857]

I am using the popup function in an app I am developing one for multiple users to sign in at same time and another for pin pad. I used to could use Close(pin) to pass back data and when calling a popup for sign in I could have string username then call the popup to be able to get that data back. Now neither of these methods are working. I have tried several work arounds to get the pin data out but am unable to extract this data.

This option should still be possible. Can you share an example of what you doing?

public PinPadPopup(string pinTitle = "Enter Your 6 Digit Pin", bool isSettingNewPin = false)
    {
        InitializeComponent();
        var vm = new PinPadViewModel();
        
        vm.PinCompleted += OnPinCompleted;
        vm.UpdatePinPadTitle(pinTitle);
        BindingContext = vm;
    }


    void OnPinCompleted(object? sender, string? pin)
    {
        Close(pin);
    }

then this is in the view model 


public void onDigitEntered(string digit)
    {
        if (PinCode.Length < 6)
        {
            PinCode += digit;
        }

        if (PinCode.Length == 6)
        {
            Result = PinCode;
            PinCompleted?.Invoke(this, pinCode);
        }
    }

Ok so you will need to modify your PinPadPopup from inheriting from Popup to inheriting from Popup<string>. Then you can call CloseAsync and pass in your return value

I tried doing that and it still shows errors on the CloseAsync saying it only accepts a cancellation token

In the xaml I am declaring the x:TypeArguments="x:String"

Did you change it in the C# file too?

You should be able to see at line 130 here https://github.com/CommunityToolkit/Maui/blob/main/src/CommunityToolkit.Maui/Views/Popup/Popup.shared.cs that the functionality exists
