Can't show image and textblock inside a GridView

Question

This is my simple code to do this:

 <Grid>
        <ListView>
            <ListView.View>
                <GridView>
                    <GridViewColumn>
                        <GridViewColumn.CellTemplate>
                            <DataTemplate>
                                <StackPanel Orientation="Horizontal">
                                    <Image Width="16" Height="16" Source="c:\myimage.jpg" />
                                    <TextBlock Text="Image Name"/>
                                </StackPanel>
                            </DataTemplate>
                        </GridViewColumn.CellTemplate>
                    </GridViewColumn>
                </GridView>
            </ListView.View>
        </ListView>
    </Grid>

But except the empty header, nothing shows up.
This is my first time using GridView . Am I missing something ?

Answer 1

If you are not binding a source then it is not going to generate any rows. Show your XAML or code behind for binding a source.

Answer 2

Your ListView has no items, the CellTemplate is applied to each item in the list and if there are no items nothing will be shown. Did you perhaps mean to change the Header instead?

Answer 3

You probably don't want to use CellTemplate. Here is an intro-level example of ListView: http://www.switchonthecode.com/tutorials/wpf-tutorial-using-the-listview-part-1
