Property Value

Object

The object that is used to generate the content of the ItemsControl. The default is null.

Remarks

The type of the object that you set the ItemsSource property to must implement one of these interfaces.

.NET	C++/WinRT	C++/CX
IEnumerable<Object>	IVector<IInspectable>	IIterable<IInspectable>
IEnumerable	IBindableObservableVector	IBindableIterable

The ItemsControl can provide better performance if the ItemsSource property value also implements a random-access list interface.

.NET	C++/WinRT	C++/CX
IList<Object>	IVector<IInspectable>	IVector<IInspectable>
IReadOnlyCollection<Object>	IVector<IInspectable>	IVectorView<IInspectable>
IList	IBindableObservableVector	IBindableVector
IList	IBindableObservableVector	IBindableVectorView

The ItemsControl can raise collection-changed notification events if the ItemsSource property value also implements a collection-changed notification interface.

.NET	C++/WinRT	C++/CX
INotifyCollectionChanged	IObservableVector<IInspectable>	IObservableVector<IInspectable>

For .NET, in order for the collection-changed events to be handled, the ItemsSource property must also implement the non-generic IList interface.
