We investigate the impact of charm mixing on a model-independent {gamma} measurement using the Dalitz plot analysis of the three-body D decay from the B{sup +}{yields}DK{sup +} process, and show that ignoring the mixing at all stages of the analysis is safe up to a sub-degree level of precision. We also find that in the coherent production of the D{sup 0}D{sup *0} system in e{sup +}e{sup -} collisions, the effect of charm mixing is enhanced, and propose a model-independent method to measure charm mixing parameters in time-integrated Dalitz plot analysis at charm factories.
