Frame and Page
Page control holds
section content for
the application
Frame control
contains the page
control & other
elements such as the
system tray &
application bar
Windows Phone
Page Navigation
53
Silverlight on Windows Phone uses a Page-based navigation model
Similar to web page model
Each page identified by a URI
Each page is essentially stateless
private void hyperlinkButton1_Click( object sender, RoutedEventArgs e) { NavigationService.Navigate( new Uri("/SecondPage.xaml", UriKind.RelativeOrAbsolute) ); }
Windows Phone
Navigating Back
54
Application can provide controls to navigate back to preceding page
The hardware Back key will also navigate back to preceding page
No code required – built-in behaviour
private void button1_Click( object sender, RoutedEventArgs e) { NavigationService.GoBack(); }
Windows Phone
Passing Data Between Pages Can pass string data between pages using query strings
55
On destination page
protected override void OnNavigatedTo( System.Windows.Navigation.NavigationEventArgs e)
{
base.OnNavigatedTo(e);
string msg = string.Empty;
if (NavigationContext.QueryString.TryGetValue("msg", out msg))
textBlock1.Text = msg;
}
private void passParam_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e) { NavigationService.Navigate(new Uri("/SecondPage.xaml?msg=" + textBox1.Text, UriKind.Relative)); }
Windows Phone
Passing Objects Between Pages Often, you will need to pass a data object from one page to another
For example, the user selects an item in a list and navigates to a Details page
One solution is to store your ViewModel (that is, data) in your App class
Global to whole application
Pass the selected item index in query string
56
NavigationService.Navigate(
new Uri("/SecondPage.xaml+?Param=value" ,
UriKind.RelativeOrAbsolute
Isolated Storage
57
NGAN SEOK CHERN Academic Ops Program Manager | MVP ASP.NET/IIS [email protected]
Windows Phone
Isolated Storage
Use to save settings and custom data
Two type:
Data as key/value pairs
Files
Secure and sandboxed
Logical Folder Structure via APIs
No quota currently
Be responsible and inform/empower user
Reference: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff402541(v=vs.92).aspx
Windows Phone
Working with Key/Value Pairs Common use methods of IsolatedStorageSettings:
Add: Adds an entry to the dictionary for the key/value pair.
Contains: Determines whether the dictionary contains the specified key.
Remove: Removes the entry with the specified key.
59
private void btnSaveSetting_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e) { IsolatedStorageSettings settings = IsolatedStorageSettings.ApplicationSettings; // No need for a dispatcher invoke, this will be quicker. if (!settings.Contains("key1")) settings.Add("key1", txtInput.Text); else settings["userData"] = txtInput.Text; settings.Save(); }
Windows Phone
Working with Files
Common use methods of IsolatedStorageSettings:
GetUserStoreForApplication: Obtains user-scoped isolated storage that corresponds to the calling code's application identity.
FileExists: Determines whether the specified path refers to an existing file in the isolated store.
CreateFile: Creates a file in the isolated store.
OpenFile: Opens a file at a specified path by using the specified sharing and access options. This method returns an IsolatedStorageFileStream object that contains the file's stream.
DeleteFile: Deletes a file in the isolated store.
DirectoryExists: Determines whether the specified path refers to an existing directory in the isolated store.
CreateDirectory: Creates a directory in the isolated storage scope.
DeleteDirectory: Deletes a directory in the isolated storage scope.
Remove: Removes the isolated storage scope and all its contents.
