I got stuck trying to implementing file picker for windows phone app. I need to choose files from gallery using FileOpenPicker
. I didn't get how it works. Here is my code:
private readonly FileOpenPicker photoPicker = new FileOpenPicker();
// This is a constructor
public MainPage()
{
// < ... >
photoPicker.SuggestedStartLocation = PickerLocationId.PicturesLibrary;
photoPicker.FileTypeFilter.Add(".jpg");
}
// I have button on the UI. On click, app shows picker where I can choose a file
private void bChoosePhoto_OnClick(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
{
photoPicker.PickMultipleFilesAndContinue();
}
So, what to do next? I guess I need to get a file object or something.
I found this link. It is msdn explanation where custom class ContinuationManager
is implemented. This solution looks weird and ugly. I am not sure if it is the best one. Please help!
