ItemAutomationPeer.GetItemTypeCore Method
[ This article is for Windows Phone 8 developers. If you’re developing for Windows 10, see the latest documentation. ]
Returns a human-readable string that contains the type of item element that the item represents. This method is called by GetItemType.
Assembly: System.Windows (in System.Windows.dll)
If the item is a UIElement with its own peer as reported by Owner, then information from that peer is forwarded. Next, the container peer (which could be ItemsControlAutomationPeer, ListBoxAutomationPeer, or another class) is used as a possible source. Finally, if there is no container peer, then this method returns String.Empty.
