WPF Tips and Facts

MyListView.AddHandler(Thumb.DragDeltaEvent, 
    new DragDeltaEventHandler(this.OnHeaderResize), true);

And handle it:

private void OnHeaderResize(object sender, DragDeltaEventArgs e)
{
	Thumb SenderAsThumb = e.OriginalSource as Thumb;
	GridViewColumnHeader header = 
	  SenderAsThumb.TemplatedParent as GridViewColumnHeader;

	if (header == null)
	{
		return;
	}

	GridView view = (MyListView.View as GridView);

	// If user tries to resize checkbox column, reset the width to fixed
	if (view.Columns[0] == header.Column)
	{
		header.Column.Width = FixedWidth;
		e.Handled = true; 
	} 
}

<ListView Height="200" x:Name="MyListView">
   <ListView.View>
       <GridView>
           <GridViewColumn>
               <GridViewColumn.HeaderTemplate>
                   <DataTemplate>
                       <CheckBox Checked="AllSelectionChanged" 
                               Unchecked="AllSelectionChanged"/>
                   </DataTemplate>
               </GridViewColumn.HeaderTemplate>
               <GridViewColumn.CellTemplate>
                   <DataTemplate>
                       <CheckBox IsChecked="{Binding Selected}"/>
                   </DataTemplate>
               </bsp;           </GridViewColumn.CellTemplate>
           </GridViewColumn>
           <GridViewColumn Header="Name" DisplayMemberBinding="{Binding Name}"/>
               <GridViewColumn Header="Version" 
                       DisplayMemberBinding="{Binding Version}"/>
           <GridViewColumn Header="Path" DisplayMemberBinding="{Binding Path}"/>
       </GridView>
   </ListView.View>
</ListView>
<gridview allowscolumnreorder="False">
<gridviewcolumn width="25">
<gridviewcolumn.headertemplate>
<listview name="MyListView" height="200">
<listview.view><gridview>
<gridviewcolumn><gridviewcolumn.headertemplate>

You can then handle global check / uncheck like:

private void AllSelectionChanged(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
{
	CheckBox chkBox = sender as CheckBox;
	if (chkBox != null)
	{
		bool check = chkBox.IsChecked.Value;

		foreach ([YourBoundType] selection in MyListView.Items)
		{
			selection.Selected = check;
		}
	}
}
