INotifyPropertyChanged, attributes and notification cascade

[C# Programming]

Hi people,

I have been thinking about a notification system and notification cascade and I came up with the following draft of code (wrote on notepad++, i know i does not compile). I would like to get some more ideas about notification cascading and maybe gather some people to implement something on CodePlex.

Below the snippet there are some resources I found about multiple implementations.

Snippet :


// Avoids having to plumb notifications, is it useful as the class implements the interface?
// INotifyPropertyChanged is useful to know if it is possible to cascade changes
[Notify]
public class MyViewModel :
INotifyPropertyChanged, (INotifier?,) IDisposable,
INotificationConfigurator {
public MyViewModel(AnotherObservableViewModel other){

}

// if property can notify it changed, notify my listeners it changed
// you can filter which properties to cascade
[CascadeNotification(x => x.Pty)]
public AnotherClass MyProperty {
get;set;
}

[DontNotify] // blocks observation
public object YourProperty {
get;set;
}

public void AnActionDelegate(){
// do something
}

public void ConfigureCascades(INotificationEngine notifier){
//Cascade a notification
notifier.CascadeChange(other)
.OnUpdate(other.OtherProperty)
.CascadeOn(this.MyProperty)
.Do(AnActionDelegate)
.OnDispose()
.CascadeDispose();

// or?
notifier.Cascade() // notifier.Cascade(From f, To t) overload ??
.OnUpdate(from => from.OtherProperty)
.CascadeNotificationOn(to => to.MyProperty)
.Do(to => to.AnActionDelegate())
.OnDispose()
.CascadeDispose();
}
}
