listcollectionview

Hi everyone,

I want to do custom sorting on a ListView which has a DataTable as ItemsSource:

myListView.ItemsSource = (data as DataTable);

And this are the first lines of my sorting function:

DataView view = (myListView.ItemsSource as DataTable).DefaultView;

ListCollectionView coll = (ListCollectionView)CollectionViewSource.GetDefaultView(view);

The second line throws an execption like:

Unable to cast "System.Windows.Data.BindingListCollectionView" to "System.Windows.Data.ListCollectionView"

Has anyone a solution? Thx 4 answers
