Event to Command in a style

Question

Can someone tell me how to code an event to command in a style for a tabitem? I have no problems using it elsewhere but I can not figure it out for a style.

I am trying to do this in Xaml for WPF using MVVM-Light toolkit.

Here is an example of what I am trying to do:

<DataTemplate x:Key="WorkspacesTemplate">
        <igWindows:XamTabControl
          AllowTabClosing="True" 
          IsSynchronizedWithCurrentItem="True" 
          ItemsSource="{Binding}" TabItemCloseButtonVisibility="Visible" 
          Margin="4"
          Theme="Office2k7Black" >
            <igWindows:XamTabControl.Resources>
                <Style TargetType="{x:Type igWindows:TabItemEx}" 
                       BasedOn="{StaticResource {x:Type igWindows:TabItemEx}}" >
                    <Setter Property="Header" Value="{Binding Path=DisplayName}" />
                    <Style.Triggers>
                        <i:EventTrigger  >
                            <cmd:EventToCommand Command="{Binding Path=CloseCommand}"  />
                        </i:EventTrigger>
                    </Style.Triggers>
                </Style>
            </igWindows:XamTabControl.Resources>
        </igWindows:XamTabControl>
    </DataTemplate>

I am using an infragistics TabControl but it shouldnt be much different than a regular tab control.

In your example, you don't have an EventName attribute in the EventTrigger element. You need to specify an event on the tab that you want to trigger the command.
