How to create toast notification in delphi with To

2020-07-26 13:46发布

I am developing on Desktop with delphi. I would like to create toast notification with ToastGeneric type notification LToastFactory.CreateToastNotification(LXMLTemplate);

In addition , i am using an xml as in https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/uwp/controls-and-patterns/tiles-and-notifications-adaptive-interactive-toasts

My question is how can i make delphi to accept this xml, i haven't found a way to convert that string into Xml_Dom_IXmlDocument type.

I had the same problem.

My objective was to create a Toast notification from Delphi that uses toastGeneric. However, I could not find any examples in any language that do this by manipulating the xml - all the examples use classes that do not appear to be accessible from Delphi.

My solution was to create a standard template and then overwrite the xml in that standard template with the xml required for a custom template. Below is some Delphi code that should give you the idea. It is a complete console app. This code compiles under Delphi 10.2 Tokyo. There may be some tweaks required for earlier versions. You will be interested in the OverwriteToastTemplateXML function.

My code was based around a standard toast template example referenced in the final comment in Marco Cantu's blog post here: http://blog.marcocantu.com/blog/2015-june-windows10-notifications-vcl-winrt.html

Note the reference in my XML to a 'hero' image jpg file. For the notification to work fully, make sure you have a jpg at c:\notifications\hero.jpg, or comment out that line in the xml.

As well as converting an XML string into a custom toast template, the code also converts a toast template back into a string, which is useful for debugging - this is the ToastTemplateToString function. These are my main functional modifications to the original example. For my own understanding, I have also changed the structure of the example code, so that variable scope and how each line of code relates to the others is also more apparent.

Let me know if this works for you - I have found that toast notification are hard work from Delphi!
