Some instructions on how to :

1. Create a WPF ListView control containing a button in each row
2. Handle the event when the button in the ListView is clicked

Step 1: Create the Visual Studio WPF project

Step 2: Add event-handling and event-raising infrastructure

Just add the following classes to your project:

EventArgs.cs

using System;

namespace ListViewButtonEvents
{
   public class EventArgs<T> : EventArgs
   {
      public EventArgs(T value)
      {
         Value = value;
      }

      public T Value { get; private set; }
   }
}

EventRaiser.cs

using System;

namespace ListViewButtonEvents
{
   public static class EventRaiser
   {
      public static void Raise(this EventHandler handler, object sender)
      {
         handler?.Invoke(sender, EventArgs.Empty);
      }

      public static void Raise<T>(this EventHandler<EventArgs<T>> handler, object sender, T value)
      {
         handler?.Invoke(sender, new EventArgs<T>(value));
      }

      public static void Raise<T>(this EventHandler<T> handler, object sender, T value) where T : EventArgs
      {
         handler?.Invoke(sender, value);
      }

      public static void Raise<T>(this EventHandler<EventArgs<T>> handler, object sender, EventArgs<T> value)
      {
         handler?.Invoke(sender, value);
      }
   }
}

RelayCommand.cs

using System;
using System.Windows.Input;

namespace ListViewButtonEvents
{
   public class RelayCommand<T> : ICommand
   {
      private readonly Predicate<T> _canExecute;
      private readonly Action<T> _execute;

      public RelayCommand(Action<T> execute)
         : this(execute, null)
      {
         _execute = execute;
      }

      public RelayCommand(Action<T> execute, Predicate<T> canExecute)
      {
         if (execute == null)
            throw new ArgumentNullException(nameof(execute));
         _execute = execute;
         _canExecute = canExecute;
      }

      #region ICommand Members

      public bool CanExecute(object parameter)
      {
         return (_canExecute == null) || _canExecute((T)parameter);
      }

      public void Execute(object parameter)
      {
         _execute((T)parameter);
      }

      public event EventHandler CanExecuteChanged
      {
         add { CommandManager.RequerySuggested += value; }
         remove { CommandManager.RequerySuggested -= value; }
      }

      #endregion
   }

   public class RelayCommand : ICommand
   {
      private readonly Predicate<object> _canExecute;
      private readonly Action<object> _execute;

      public RelayCommand(Action<object> execute)
         : this(execute, null)
      {
         _execute = execute;
      }

      public RelayCommand(Action<object> execute, Predicate<object> canExecute)
      {
         if (execute == null)
            throw new ArgumentNullException("execute");
         _execute = execute;
         _canExecute = canExecute;
      }

      #region ICommand Members

      public bool CanExecute(object parameter)
      {
         return (_canExecute == null) || _canExecute(parameter);
      }

      public void Execute(object parameter)
      {
         _execute(parameter);
      }

      // Ensures WPF commanding infrastructure asks all RelayCommand objects whether their
      // associated views should be enabled whenever a command is invoked 
      public event EventHandler CanExecuteChanged
      {
         add
         {
            CommandManager.RequerySuggested += value;
            CanExecuteChangedInternal += value;
         }
         remove
         {
            CommandManager.RequerySuggested -= value;
            CanExecuteChangedInternal -= value;
         }
      }

      #endregion

      private event EventHandler CanExecuteChangedInternal;

      public void RaiseCanExecuteChanged()
      {
         CanExecuteChangedInternal.Raise(this);
      }
   }
}

Step 3: Create the MainWindowViewModel class used to create and access the data items

MainWindowViewModel.cs

using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Windows;
using System.Windows.Input;

namespace ListViewButtonEvents
{
   public class Item
   {
      public Item(string name, string value)
      {
         Name = name;
         Value = value;
      }

      public string Name { get; set; }
      public string Value { get; set; }

      // This can be important!
      public override string ToString()
      {
         return Value;
      }
   }

   public class MainWindowViewModel
   {
      private ICommand _command;

      public MainWindowViewModel()
      {
         Items = new List<Item>
         {
            new Item("Button 1", "12"), new Item("Button 2", "133"), new Item("Button 3", "45")
         };
      }

      public ICommand Command
      {
         get { return _command ?? (_command = new RelayCommand(x => { DoStuff(x.ToString()); })); }
      }

      public List<Item> Items { get; set; }

      private static void DoStuff(string name)
      {
         MessageBox.Show("Responding to click event on " + name);
      }
   }
}

Step 4: Update the MainWindow.xaml

<Window x:Class="ListViewButtonEvents.MainWindow"
        xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
        xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
        xmlns:d="http://schemas.microsoft.com/expression/blend/2008"
        xmlns:mc="http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/markup-compatibility/2006"
        xmlns:local="clr-namespace:ListViewButtonEvents"
        mc:Ignorable="d"
        Title="MainWindow" Height="250" Width="200">


    <Window.DataContext>
        <local:MainWindowViewModel/>
    </Window.DataContext>

    <Window.Resources>
        <Style x:Key="ListViewStyle" TargetType="{x:Type GridViewColumnHeader}">
            <Setter Property="HorizontalContentAlignment" Value="Left" />
        </Style>
    </Window.Resources>

    <Grid>
        <ListView 
            VerticalAlignment="Center"
            HorizontalAlignment="Center"
            ItemsSource="{Binding Items}" 
            x:Name="ListView1">

            <ListView.ItemTemplate>
                <DataTemplate>
                    <Button 
                        Width="80"
                        Height="30"
                        Margin="5"                        
                        Command="{Binding ElementName=ListView1, Path=DataContext.Command}" 
                        CommandParameter="{Binding Name}">
                        <TextBlock Text="{Binding Name}" />
                    </Button>
                </DataTemplate>
            </ListView.ItemTemplate>
        </ListView>
    </Grid>
    
</Window>

Step 5: Run the application

As you can see this WPF / XAML application displays the 3 x button items created

Clicking on ‘Button 2’ for example handles the event as desired:
