Silverlight TabControl ContentTemplate

Question

I'm struggling to port the following piece of code from WPF to SL:

<

TabControl ...
ItemTemplate={StaticResource someResource}>
ContentTemplate={StaticResource someResource2} />

Apparently the TabControl in SL doesn't contain ContentTemplate binding property.

What's the workaround for this issue? Any hint would be greatly appreciated.

I had the same problem and found following solution on the web:

Works fine for me in conjunction with Caliburn.Micro Bindings.
