KeyNotFoundException when changing Series.ItemsSource

description

I want to bind a data table that contains a list of budgets (name & value column).
 
<v:Chart x:Name="BudgetChart" 
     Title="Budget Distribution">
<v:PieSeries x:Name="PieSeries" 
             IndependentValueBinding="{Binding Path=CategoryName}"
             DependentValueBinding="{Binding Path=Value}"/>
</v:Chart>
 
I bind my data to the chart like this, and it works fine the first time.
 
void RefreshChart()
{ 
PieSeries.ItemsSource = dataTable;
}
 
My problem, is that if I call RefreshChart() a second time, I get the following exception:
 
KeyNotFoundException: The given key was not present in the dictionary.
 
Is there something I'm not doing right?

Technically, this bug is for WPF Charting, not Silverlight Charting, and WPF Charting is completely unsupported...

That said, this bothered me and I investigated this issue today. I have just checked in fixes for the issue abrien identified as well as one other that I found along the way. I have verified that the demo application attached to this work item works correctly after my changes.

I will be blogging an update to the WPF Charting DLL in a day or two on my blog: http://blogs.msdn.com/Delay/

Thanks very much for the help!

Hi, I can't repro this issue.
Can you please include a minimal and relevant repro of this issue? Maybe start a a new project and just add the bare bones required to show us this issue?

Without it, we can't do anything to help you.

Thanks,

I've attached a test project. Click the "Replace ItemsSource" button once to see the pie chart properly refresh, and a second time to see it crash when the PieSeries.ItemsSource property is changed.
