Creating a Custom View Mode that Supports a Template Selector

The controls that inherit from ItemsControl (such as ListBox, ListView, and so on) expose an ItemTemplateSelector property that you can use instead of the ItemTemplate property to specify a DataTemplateSelector. The DataTemplateSelector enables you to specify your own custom logic that determines which DataTemplate should be applied to each item. This article shows how to create a custom view mode for the ListView control that supports a DataTemplateSelector to enable dynamic selection of the DataTemplate for each item.
