Examples

The File picker provider sample demonstrates how to respond to a FileOpenPicker activated event.

// File open picker activated event handler
protected override void OnFileOpenPickerActivated(FileOpenPickerActivatedEventArgs args)
{
    var FileOpenPickerPage = new SDKTemplate.FileOpenPickerPage();
    FileOpenPickerPage.Activate(args);
}

// Overloaded method to respond to fileOpenPicker events
public void Activate(FileOpenPickerActivatedEventArgs args)
{
    // Perform tasks to prepare your app to display its file picker page

    // Get file picker UI
    fileOpenPickerUI = args.FileOpenPickerUI;

    Window.Current.Content = this;
    this.OnNavigatedTo(null);
    Window.Current.Activate();
}

For C#, args contains a FileOpenPickerActivatedEventArgs object. Additionally, the OnFileOpenPickerActivated is in the App.xaml.cs file and the Activate method is in the FileOpenPickerPage.xaml.cs file of the File picker provider sample.

Remarks

If your app participates in the File Open Picker contract, you can retrieve this object using a FileOpenPickerUI property while you handle a FileOpenPicker activated event.

Use the Windows.ApplicationModel.Activation.FileOpenPickerActivatedEventArgs.FileOpenPickerUI property to access a FileOpenPickerUI.
