    private int age ;
    private bool isBusy;
    private string address;

    void OnPropertyChanged([CallerMemberName] string name = "")
    {
        PropertyChanged.Invoke(this, new PropertyChangedEventArgs(name));
    }

    public int NIC

        }
    }

        }
    }

    public string DisplayMessage
    {
        get
        {
            return "Hi  " + name;
        }

    }




    public bool IsBusy
    {
        get { return isBusy; }
        set { isBusy = value; }
    }


}

Can you check:

1.When entering text in the entry control,check it is hitting the break point in the view model for each property.

2.Check INotifyPropertyChanged is implemented.

3.Check by setting the hard code for the Text property of Entry control.
