I have a class :

Public Class treeModel

    Public Property title As String
    Public Property type As String
    Public Property id As String
    Public Property items As List(Of treeModel) 'Sons

End Class

this class contains metadata about each item and a list of it’s sons , How to bind this class to WPF Treeview controller ? , and when item selected How can I access it’s metadata ?

Thanks for Help.

To bind to the nested collection of objects to your treeView you need to define a Hierarchical DataTemplate along with DataTemplate in your view. If it’s something new to you, these links might be helpful to you –
