Make ListView Item Selected Form ItemSource

I have a ListView like this

<ListView x:Name="lview" SelectionMode="Multiple">
    <ListView.ItemTemplate>
        <DataTemplate>
            <TextBlock Text="{Binding Name, Mode=OneWay}" />
        </DataTemplate>
    </ListView.ItemTemplate>
</ListView>

I am binding data to this Listview like this

public MainPage()
{
    this.InitializeComponent();
    ObservableCollection<OptionItem> io = new ObservableCollection<OptionItem>();
    io.Add(new OptionItem { Name = "11111111111", IsSelected=false });
    io.Add(new OptionItem { Name = "22222222222", IsSelected=true });
    io.Add(new OptionItem { Name = "33333333333", IsSelected=true });
    io.Add(new OptionItem { Name = "44444444444",IsSelected=false });

    lview.ItemsSource = io;
}

Now you can see inside my Model, I have a Property called IsSelected. How can I bind this to the listView, so that the Items selected in the ItemsSource comes as selected in ListView?

Depending on when you want the selection to happen, subscribe to an event of the ListView where you add the selected OptionItems to the list of selected items:

Code

private void Lview_SizeChanged(object sender, SizeChangedEventArgs e)
{
    var listView = sender as ListView;
    foreach (OptionItem item in listView.Items)
    {
        if (item.IsSelected)
        {
            listView.SelectedItems.Add(item);
        }
    }
}

XAML

<ListView x:Name="lview" SelectionMode="Multiple" SizeChanged="Lview_SizeChanged">
    <ListView.ItemTemplate>
        <DataTemplate>
            <TextBlock Text="{Binding Name, Mode=OneWay}" />
        </DataTemplate>
    </ListView.ItemTemplate>
</ListView>

Anyway you probably want to consider using a pattern like MVVM as this will make your code (by far!) more readable and easier to maintain.
