Parameters

cellContent: Visual element that will be bound in order to display the cell content. If the cellContent received is not the expected you'll probably need to override the method GetCellContentRecyclingKey.
row: Row for which the cell will be initialized.

This method must include cellContent property settings, SetBinding of the corresponding dependency property being "row.DataItem" the source which can be set directly in the binding or as DataContext of the cellContent.

This method is called after a cell content is created or a recycled one is taken.

C#

var txt = (TextBlock)cellContent;
            txt.HorizontalAlignment = HorizontalAlignment;
            txt.VerticalAlignment = VerticalAlignment;
            Binding newBinding = CopyBinding(Binding);
            newBinding.Source = row.DataItem;
            txt.SetBinding(TextBlock.TextProperty, newBinding);
