Silverlight vs WPF - Treeview with HierarchialDataTemplate -

so, following easy enough in wpf, how in silverlight?

please note trick here display both groups, , entries on same level. additonally dont know how deep entries nested, might on first, or nth level. hard in silverlight because lack datatype="{x:type local:group}" property in h.datatemplate (or datatemplate). building own custom datatempalteselector didnt work, because hierarchial itemssource gets lost. (which gave me new idea investigate shortly)

example:

group1 --entry --entry group2 --group4 ----group1 ------entry ------entry ----entry ----entry --entry --entry group3 --entry --entry

your classes:

public class entry {     public int key { get; set; }     public string name { get; set; } }  public class group {     public int key { get; set; }     public string name { get; set; }      public ilist<group> subgroups { get; set; }     public ilist<entry> entries { get; set; } }

your xaml:

   <treeview name="groupview" grid.row="0" grid.column="0" itemssource="{binding}">         <treeview.resources>             <hierarchicaldatatemplate datatype="{x:type local:group}" itemssource={binding items}">                 <textblock text="{binding path=name}" />             </hierarchicaldatatemplate>             <datatemplate datatype="{x:type local:entry}" >                 <textblock text="{binding path=name}" />             </datatemplate>         </treeview.resources>     </treeview> 

the treeview control silverlight toolkit supports hierarchical data templates.

check out article sample usage, looks identical me wpf built in one.
