WPF: How to dynamically find a usercontrol or datatemplate

I have a bunch of datatemplates I use to display various sql-views in an ItemsControl. I don't know which datatemplate i'm going to use until run-time. (every view has different columns) Next to that, I made a开发者_运维技巧 generic dynamic datatemplate for all those views that don't need anything special.

When I display the view I want to first look in all the available datatemplates if there is one that matches, else use the default dynamic datatemplate.

My question is how can I 'search' a datatemplate by name in code? Usercontrol is also possible.

Thanks,

Elger

Yep got it:

Use a datatemplateselector or just use window.FindResource to do the trick.
