I've set up my tile and page layout with a button in my app but when I press the button the event handler does not get called. I tried with the tile open event handler but that doesn't work either. My code is as follows:
private async void OnConnectToBand()
{
IBandInfo[] pairedBands = await BandClientManager.Instance.GetBandsAsync();
try
{
using (IBandClient bandClient = await BandClientManager.Instance.ConnectAsync(pairedBands[0]))
{
//add tile, create page layout with button and add content with button
//subscribe to listeners
bandClient.TileManager.TileButtonPressed += EventHandler_TileButtonPressed;
// Start listening for events
bandClient.TileManager.StartReadingsAsync();
}
}
catch(BandException ex)
{
//handle a Band connection exception
}
}
void EventHandler_TileButtonPressed(object sender, BandTileEventArgs<IBandTileButtonPressedEvent> e)
{
// handle event
}
The tile and page get created fine but the button doesn't trigger the event handler. Any ideas why it's not being called?
UPDATE: I just went through my code and the SDK doco again and remembered I'm doing something different which is why it might not be working. The doco has the following for adding the button to the layout which doesn't compile:
// create the content to assign to the page
PageData pageContent = new PageData
(
pageGuid,
0, // index of our (only) layout
new Button(
TilePageElementId.Button_PushMe,
“Push Me!”)
);
The compiler says there isn't a constructor for Button that takes in 2 arguments.
I assumed there was an error in the sample code and changed it to TextButtonData which compiles fine but now I'm wondering if that is why the event handler isn't working? Code is:
PageData pageContent = new PageData(
pageGuid,
0, // index of our (only) layout
new TextButtonData(
(short)TilePageElementId.Button_PushMe, "Push"));
Any ideas?
