How to share multiple content types (Bitmap and StorageItems)? RRS feed

  • Question

  • Hey guys,

    I'll like to share multiple content types (Bitmap and StorageItems) using the DataTransferManager (see code below). Unfortunately, only the last attached event handler will be called. Is there a way to share multiple content types, or is that not supported? If not, is there a reason for that?

    Thanks, Jan.

    private void RegisterForShare()
            {
                DataTransferManager dataTransferManager = DataTransferManager.GetForCurrentView();
                dataTransferManager.DataRequested += ShareImageListHandler;
                dataTransferManager.DataRequested += ShareImageHandler;
            }
    
            private async void ShareImageHandler(DataTransferManager sender,
                DataRequestedEventArgs e)
            {
                DataRequest request = e.Request;
                request.Data.Properties.Title = "Current Image";
                request.Data.Properties.Description = "Shares the current focused image.";
    
                DataRequestDeferral deferral = request.GetDeferral();
    
                try
                {
                    // request.Data.SetBitmap
                }
                finally
                {
                    deferral.Complete();
                }
            }
    
            private async void ShareImageListHandler(DataTransferManager sender,
               DataRequestedEventArgs e)
            {
                DataRequest request = e.Request;
                request.Data.Properties.Title = "All images";
                request.Data.Properties.Description = "Shares all images from the current list.";
    
                DataRequestDeferral deferral = request.GetDeferral();
    
                try
                {
                  // request.Data.SetStorageItems
                }
                finally
                {
                    deferral.Complete();
                }
            }
