Constructors

The DataTemplateSelector class has these constructors.

Constructor	Description
DataTemplateSelector	Initializes a new instance of the DataTemplateSelector class.

Methods

The DataTemplateSelector class has these methods. It also inherits methods from the Object class.

Method	Description
SelectTemplate	Returns a specific DataTemplate for a given item or container.
SelectTemplateCore	When implemented by a derived class, returns a specific DataTemplate for a given item or container.

Remarks

The base DataTemplateSelector class is not used as an object element in XAML. However, it is a common scenario to derive a custom DataTemplateSelector, map a xmlns prefix for the custom class and its namespace/assembly, and then refer to an instance of the custom class as defined in a Resources block in XAML. This makes it possible to refer to the custom template selector class by x:Key, and use that reference to set the value of properties such as ItemTemplateSelector in XAML templates and visual states.
