Binding a nested ListView in WPF -

i have simple listview in have listview. can't seem inner listview bound actual list<>, shows empty.

my code:

public collectionviewsource cvsmain {get;set;} //which list<myclassviewmodel>, main listview bounds correctly  public class myclassviewmodel{      public class mysubclass{           public string name{return _name;}     }      list<mysubclass> mylist = new list<mysubclass>();     public string mytext{get;set;} } 

my xaml:

<listview datacontext="{binding cvsmain}" itemssource="{binding}" >         <listview.view>             <gridview>                 <gridviewcolumn displaymemberbinding="{binding mytext}" header="my text"/>                 <gridviewcolumn header="my list">                 <gridviewcolumn.celltemplate>                         <datatemplate>                             <itemscontrol itemssource="{binding mylist}">                                 <itemscontrol.template>                                     <controltemplate targettype="itemscontrol">                                         <itemspresenter/>                                     </controltemplate>                                 </itemscontrol.template>                                 <itemscontrol.itemspanel>                                     <itemspaneltemplate>                                         <stackpanel/>                                     </itemspaneltemplate>                                 </itemscontrol.itemspanel>                                 <itemscontrol.itemtemplate>                                     <datatemplate>                                         <listview>                                             <listview.view>                                                 <gridview>                                                     <gridviewcolumn displaymemberbinding="{binding name}" header="name"/>                                                  </gridview>                                             </listview.view>                                         </listview>                                         </stackpanel>                                     </datatemplate>                                 </itemscontrol.itemtemplate>                             </itemscontrol>                         </datatemplate>                     </gridviewcolumn.celltemplate>                 </gridviewcolumn> 

if instead of second listview put textblock "{binding name}", works. not sure how bind inner listview, ideas?

thanks,

you have 3 nested controls: outer listview, itemscontrol in middle, , inner listview. think itemscontrol unnecessary. try replacing

 <itemscontrol itemssource="{binding mylist}">    ...  </itemscontrol> 

by

 <listview itemssource="{binding mylist}">       <listview.view>           <gridview>               <gridviewcolumn displaymemberbinding="{binding name}" header="name"/>          </gridview>        </listview.view>   </listview> 

furthermore, change

list<mysubclass> mylist = new list<mysubclass>();  

to

public list<mysubclass> mylist { get; set; } 

because can bind public properties only, not private fields.
