How to Avoid Firing ObservableCollection.CollectionChanged Multiple Times When Replacing All Elements Or Adding a Collection of Elements

ColinE is right with all his informations. I only want to add my subclass of ObservableCollection that I use for this specific case.

public class SmartCollection<T> : ObservableCollection<T> {
    public SmartCollection()
        : base() {
    }

    public SmartCollection(IEnumerable<T> collection)
        : base(collection) {
    }

    public SmartCollection(List<T> list)
        : base(list) {
    }

    public void AddRange(IEnumerable<T> range) {
        foreach (var item in range) {
            Items.Add(item);
        }

        this.OnPropertyChanged(new PropertyChangedEventArgs("Count"));
        this.OnPropertyChanged(new PropertyChangedEventArgs("Item[]"));
        this.OnCollectionChanged(new NotifyCollectionChangedEventArgs(NotifyCollectionChangedAction.Reset));
    }

    public void Reset(IEnumerable<T> range) {
        this.Items.Clear();

        AddRange(range);
    }
}
