List view does not contain a definition for 'ItemsSource' in Xamarin.forms?

Question

I am new to c# Cross-Platform working in xamarin.forms in visual studio. Copied sample code from this link , getting some error like definition can't be found. Can anyone please give any solution or idea why i am getting this error and what i have missed in it.

Main.cs

        ListView listView = new ListView
        {
            ItemsSource = presidents,
            ItemTemplate = cell // Set the ImageCell to the item template for the listview
        };

i am getting error in this above line in the copied code from the above link.

Answer 1

It looks like you are using Android.Widget.ListView. You need to use Xamarin.Forms.ListView Class.

Answer 2

First, you should post your whole code here and also post the exact error-message (as it is not possible else to give you an exact answer).
I think, you don't have overtaked the whole code form the example...?
So, maybe presidents and/or cell is not found.
If this is not the problem, you can find (another) example (with description) to the use of LstViews here: How to use ListView
