Agenda
Windows Core
New Controls
App-to-App Communications
Action Center

First, Windows Core
One, Common source
One Windows kernel
One File I/O stack
One app model
More…

Easy for users to get
& stay current
Unified core
and app platform
The convergence journey

UAP = Universal App Platform
A collection of contracts & versions

Target a version of UAP
not the Operating System

Platform Versioning
<TargetPlatform
Name="Microsoft.Universal"
minVersion="2.0.0.0"
maxVersionTested="3.5.0.0" />

Safely deploy one binary
to every type of device

Testing for capabilities
IsApiContractPresent
IsEnumNamedValuePresent
IsEventPresent
IsMethodPresent
IsPropertyPresent
IsReadOnlyPropertyPresent
IsTypePresent
IsWriteablePropertyPresent
Windows.Foundation.Metadata.ApiInformation

Test capabilities at runtime
var ns = "Windows.Phone.UI.Input.HardwareButtons";
if (Windows.Foundation.Metadata.ApiInformation.IsTypePresent(ns))
{
Windows.Phone.UI.Input.HardwareButtons
.BackPressed += Back_BackPressed;
}

Platform extensions
<ItemGroup>

<SDKReference Include="Windows Desktop,
Version=10.0.9910.0"/>
<SDKReference Include="Windows Mobile,

Visual State setters & triggers
Setters set discrete properties
Many properties do not need animation
Triggers declare when a state is applied
No need to manually handle events in code-behind
<VisualState x:Name="wideState">
<VisualState.Setters>
<Setter Target="myPanel.Orientation" Value="Horizontal" />
</VisualState.Setters>
<VisualState.StateTriggers>
<AdaptiveTrigger MinWindowWidth="600"/>
</VisualState.StateTriggers>
</VisualState>

App to App Communication
enhancements in Windows 10

Enhanced App to App in Windows 10
Send file token, send data
Launch a *specific* app
App Services
Launch for Results

URI Activation++
Invoke a specific app
var options = new LauncherOptions();
options.TargetApplicationPackageFamilyName = "24919.InstapaperIt";
var launchUri = new Uri("instapaper:?AddUrl=http%3A%2F%2Fbing.com");
await Launcher.LaunchUriAsync(launchUri, options);

URI Activation++
Send Files
options.TargetApplicationPackageFamilyName = "24919.InstapaperIt";
var token = SharedStorageAccessManager.AddFile (gpxFile);
ValueSet inputData = new ValueSet();
inputData.Add("Token", token);
await Launcher.LaunchUriAsync(launchUri, options, inputData);

Query URI Support
Discover if app already installed to handle a Uri
var queryUri = new Uri("instapaper:");
await Launcher.QueryUriSupportAsync(queryUri, LaunchUriType.LaunchUri);
?
var queryUri = new Uri("instapaper:");
string packageFamilyName = "24919.InstapaperIt";
await Launcher.QueryUriSupportAsync(queryUri, LaunchUriType.LaunchUriForResults, packageFamilyName);

Launch for Results
Launching the app
options.TargetApplicationPackageFamilyName = "24919.Instap";
await Launcher.LaunchUriForResultsAsync(launchUri, options, data);
var resultData = new ValueSet();
resultData.Add("Result", value);
operation.ProtocolForResultsOperation.ReportCompleted(resultData);A

Action Center
managing your notification space

Action Center – User Experience
20 Notifications per app
Persistent notifications for 7 days (or shorter)
Users can:
- “chase” (tap) a notification (removes it from the action center)
- remove a group of notifications
- remove all notifications
First available on Phone in 8.1 - now on Windows
10 desktop as well!

Action Center Management APIs
Manage app notifications
Developers can:
• Remove one or many notifications
• Tag and group notifications
• Replace a notification with a new one
• Set an expiration on notifications
• Send “Ghost Toast” notifications (only show up in the notification center)

Action Center change triggers
ToastNotificationHistoryChangedTrigger
• Fires whenever a user dismisses a notification from Action Center
• Or when an app adds or removes or replaces a notification
Use to trigger a Background task in which you can maintain
consistency of unactioned item counts in app state and on
Tiles

Action Center change trigger
// Background task for a ToastNotificationHistoryChangedTrigger
public sealed class ActionCenterChangedTask: IBackgroundTask
{
public void Run(IBackgroundTaskInstance taskInstance)
{
var toasts = ToastNotificationManager.History.GetHistory();
if (toasts != null)
{
var count = toasts.Count();
if (count== 0)
{
BadgeUpdateManager.CreateBadgeUpdaterForApplication().Clear();
}
else
{
XmlDocument badgeXml = BadgeUpdateManager.GetTemplateContent(BadgeTemplateType.BadgeNumber);
XmlElement badgeElement = (XmlElement)badgeXml.SelectSingleNode("/badge");
badgeElement.SetAttribute("value", count.ToString());
BadgeNotification badge = new BadgeNotification(badgeXml);
BadgeUpdateManager.CreateBadgeUpdaterForApplication().Update(badge);
}
}
}
}
