Converting ControlTemplate XAML to C#

Question

I have been stumped with trying to convert the following code into pure c#. This XAML code is from Cavanaghs blog on how to make rounded corners on anything. The code work

Answer 1

You don't actually have to convert this into C# to apply it dynamically. If you add it to your application resources, within your App.xaml file as follows:

Note the x:Key attribute which keys this item.

You can then look it up anywhere in your code ...

ControlTemplate template = this.Findresource("MyListViewItemTemplate") as ControlTemplate

You can then apply it as and when you need it!
