API Docs Official GitHub repo

SDK Versions

1. Win2D: 1.1.1
2. Windows SDK: 10.0.18362.0
3. Windows App SDK: 1.5-preview1

Project Configuration

The bindings are generated from WinMD files, found in NuGet packages on Nuget.org. There are three key files which drive this:

1. packages.config - this specifies the packages and their versions
2. projections.json - this specifies the project/package and which apis to include in the projection
3. generate-bindings.ps1 - this file reads both packages.config and projections.json and generates the appropriate bindings.

Filing Issues

Please file any issues you have with this repository on https://github.com/thebrowsercompany/swift-winrt

Using Win2D

In order to use Win2D, you will need to add manifest entries to your application's Win32 manifest (app.exe.manifest) like this:

  <file name="Microsoft.Graphics.Canvas.dll">
    <activatableClass
        name="Microsoft.Graphics.Canvas.CanvasBitmap"
        threadingModel="both"
        xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:winrt.v1" />
    <activatableClass
        name="Microsoft.Graphics.Canvas.CanvasDevice"
        threadingModel="both"
        xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:winrt.v1" />
    <activatableClass
        name="Microsoft.Graphics.Canvas.CanvasRenderTarget"
        threadingModel="both"
        xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:winrt.v1" />
    <activatableClass
        name="Microsoft.Graphics.Canvas.Geometry.CanvasGeometry"
        threadingModel="both"
        xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:winrt.v1" />
  </file>

When building with SPM, this manifest file needs to be copied next to the .exe after the build has completed.
