How can I access ResourceDictionary in wpf from C# code?

Question

I have a DataTemplate defined in a xaml file that I want to access via C# code. Can anyone please tell me how can I access it? I added a new ResourceDicti

Answer 1

For the life of me, although I was able to load my resource dictionary via XAML, I wasn't able to load it via "code behind" (in C#).

So I resorted to have a view loading it: (MyView.xaml)

Then access it in my UT by instanciating that view and accessing it:

new MyView().Resources.MergedDictionaries[0]

Hacky, but works.
