Getting this exception when trying to assign variable of type "IList" to "Children" property of SegmentedControl.

Is there a particular reason you're creating parts of the view in the view model?

Are you needing the ability to create the segments at runtime rather than in xaml?

[romitnurani]

Yes, My segments are decided and added on runtime. They aren't static/constant. It could be any number.

[rjantz3]

Is it a one time binding or do you need the ability to update and remove segments anytime?

[romitnurani]

One time binding.

This seems to be related to #13

This is not currently a feature that is available. I'll consider it going forward. Also feel free to do a PR on this.

I also really need this feature. :)
