How to create Itemscontrol ItemTemplate in code behind

Question

Does anyone have a walk through/example/blog of how I can dynamically create the item template of an items control in the code behind?

I have an object that has a dynamic number of properties and I'm needing to vary the output but I'm having difficulty getting started.

I've created a few from XAML but never done it from the code behind.

Vb or C# is fine, but C# is preferred

Basically you would need to create a DataTemplate, and use a FrameworkElementFactory to create the layout. There is an example given on the Microsoft forum.
