Data virtualization sample

Shows how to implement a data source for XAML list controls that implements data virtualization.

Note: This sample is part of a large collection of UWP feature samples. If you are unfamiliar with Git and GitHub, you can download the entire collection as a ZIP file, but be sure to unzip everything to access shared dependencies. For more info on working with the ZIP file, the samples collection, and GitHub, see Get the UWP samples from GitHub. For more samples, see the Samples portal on the Windows Dev Center.

Specifically, this sample shows how to:

  • Implement IItemsRangeInfo: Use the IItemsRangeInfo interface to understand which items are in view or the buffer area for a list view, and to manage a cache containing those items.
  • Implement ISelectionInfo: Use the ISelectionInfo interface to manage the selection of items in the list, accounting for the data virtualization.

Note The Windows universal samples require Visual Studio 2017 to build and Windows 10 to execute.
