winrt method |
Allows listening to any Package and its dependents (optional, resource, and hostRuntime).
The Package which will be monitored for notifications.
The PackageCatalog used to listen for deployment notifications.
This API requires the PackageQuery capability (unless the call is for the current package).
This API allows a package to listen to deployment notifications for another package and its dependents (like PWAs).
This example uses the OpenForPackage method to listen to notifications on the current package (Package.Current). The event handler acts on any optional package that has finished updating.
void RegisterForDeploymentNotifications()
{
if (catalog == null)
{
catalog = PackageCatalog.OpenForPackage(Package.Current);
catalog.PackageUpdating += OptionalPackageUpdatingCallback;
}
}
void OptionalPackageUpdatingCallback(object sender, PackageUpdatingEventArgs args)
{
if (args.IsComplete && args.TargetPackage.IsOptional)
{
// Let the user know the Optional package has updated, and can be used now
var messageDialog = new MessageDialog(args.TargetPackage.DisplayName +
" has been updated. Please restart the app to enjoy our latest features.");
}
