I have a project for Windows CE that uses XAML for Windows Embedded (Compact 2013) (also known as "Silverlight for Windows Embedded") for the GUI.
I defined an image in xaml and now I want to switch this image in the c++ code behind part.
How do I do this?
I found this solution:
m_pBatteryStateImage
is the image, defined in Xaml.
The URIs for the images can be found in the auto generated file PROJECTNAMEGenerated.rc2
void MainPage::SetBatteryState(BatteryStateFlags batteryState)
{
BSTR src = GetImageSourceUri(batteryState);
SetImage(src);
}
void MainPage::SetImage(BSTR src)
{
IXRApplication* application;
App::GetApplication(&application);
//Check which uri is currently used:
BSTR originalSrc;
IXRImageSource* iSource;
m_pBatteryStateImage->GetSource(&iSource);
IXRBitmapImagePtr bmpSrc = (IXRBitmapImagePtr)iSource;
bmpSrc->GetUriSource(&originalSrc);
//Set new image if source uri is different
if (wcscmp(originalSrc,src)!=0)
{
IXRBitmapImagePtr bitmapImage;
application->CreateObject(IID_IXRBitmapImage, &bitmapImage);
bitmapImage->SetUriSource(src);
m_pBatteryStateImage->SetSource(bitmapImage);
}
}
BSTR MainPage::GetImageSourceUri(BatteryStateFlags batteryState)
{
BSTR src;
//see PROJECTNAMEGenerated.rc2 - the numbers will change if images are added (they are alphabetically sorted).
//TODO make it robust against changes
if(batteryState & BatteryChargerError)
src = TEXT("#105");
else if(batteryState & BatteryHigh)
src = TEXT("#106");
else if(batteryState & BatteryLow)
src = TEXT("#109");
else
//Show error if nothing else matches (Should not happen)
src = TEXT("#105");
return src;
}
