ApplicationDataCompositeValue Class

Definition

Represents related app settings that must be serialized and deserialized atomically.

Examples

This example creates and reads a composite setting named exampleCompositeSetting.

Call the Remove method to delete the exampleCompositeSetting setting when you have finished with it.

Windows.Storage.ApplicationDataContainer localSettings = Windows.Storage.ApplicationData.Current.LocalSettings;

// Create a composite setting

Windows.Storage.ApplicationDataCompositeValue composite = new Windows.Storage.ApplicationDataCompositeValue();
composite["intVal"] = 1;
composite["strVal"] = "string";

localSettings.Values["exampleCompositeSetting"] = composite;

// Read data from a composite setting

Windows.Storage.ApplicationDataCompositeValue composite = 
   (Windows.Storage.ApplicationDataCompositeValue)localSettings.Values["exampleCompositeSetting"];

if (composite == null)
{
   // No data
}
else
{
   // Access data in composite["intVal"] and composite["strVal"]
}

// Delete a composite setting

localSettings.Values.Remove("exampleCompositeSetting");
Windows::Storage::ApplicationDataContainer localSettings{
    Windows::Storage::ApplicationData::Current().LocalSettings() };
auto values{ localSettings.Values() };

{
    // Create a composite setting.
    Windows::Storage::ApplicationDataCompositeValue composite;
    composite.Insert(L"intVal", Windows::Foundation::PropertyValue::CreateInt32(1));
    composite.Insert(L"strVal", Windows::Foundation::PropertyValue::CreateString(L"string"));
    values.Insert(L"exampleCompositeSetting", composite);
}

{
    // Read data from a composite setting.
    Windows::Storage::ApplicationDataCompositeValue composite{ values.Lookup(L"exampleCompositeSetting").as<Windows::Storage::ApplicationDataCompositeValue>() };
    if (composite == nullptr)
    {
        // No data
    }
    else
    {
        int32_t one{ winrt::unbox_value<int32_t>(composite.Lookup(L"intVal")) };
        winrt::hstring hello{ winrt::unbox_value<winrt::hstring>(composite.Lookup(L"strVal")) };
    }
}

// Delete a composite setting.
values.Remove(L"exampleCompositeSetting");
ApplicationDataContainer^ localSettings = ApplicationData::Current->LocalSettings;

// Create a composite setting

ApplicationDataCompositeValue^ composite = ref new ApplicationDataCompositeValue();
composite->Insert("intVal", dynamic_cast<PropertyValue^>(PropertyValue::CreateInt32(1)));
composite->Insert("strVal", dynamic_cast<PropertyValue^>(PropertyValue::CreateString("string")));

auto values = localSettings->Values;
values->Insert("exampleCompositeSetting", composite);

// Read data from a composite setting

composite = safe_cast<ApplicationDataCompositeValue^>(localSettings->Values->Lookup("exampleCompositeSetting"));

if (composite == nullptr)
{
   // No data
}
else
{
   int one = safe_cast<IPropertyValue^>(composite->Lookup("intVal"))->GetInt32();
   String^ hello = safe_cast<String^>(composite->Lookup("strVal"));
}

// Delete a composite setting

values->Remove("exampleCompositeSetting");
Dim localSettings As Windows.Storage.ApplicationDataContainer = Windows.Storage.ApplicationData.Current.LocalSettings

' Create a composite setting

Dim composite As New Windows.Storage.ApplicationDataCompositeValue
composite("intVal") = 1
composite("strVal") = "string";

localSettings.Values("exampleCompositeSetting") = composite

' Read data from a composite setting

Dim composite As Windows.Storage.ApplicationDataCompositeValue = 
   CType(localSettings.Values("exampleCompositeSetting"), Windows.Storage.ApplicationDataCompositeValue)

If composite Is Nothing Then
   ' No data
Else
   ' Access data in composite("intVal") and composite("strVal")
End If

' Delete a composite setting

localSettings.Values.Remove("exampleCompositeSetting")

Remarks

A composite setting is serialized by inserting it into a settings map and deserialized by looking it up from the map.

Collection member lists

For JavaScript, ApplicationDataCompositeValue supports using an index to access items.

Constructors

ApplicationDataCompositeValue()

Creates and initializes a new, initially empty, instance of the object.

Properties

Size

Gets the number of related application settings.

Methods

Clear()

Removes all application settings previously inserted into the composite value object, returning the object to its empty state.

First()

Retrieves an iterator to enumerate the settings in the composite value.

GetView()

Returns a read-only snapshot of the contents of the composite value.

HasKey(String)

Determines whether there is an application setting with the specified key.

Insert(String, Object)

Creates or replaces an application setting.

Lookup(String)

Retrieves the specified application setting.

Remove(String)

Removes the value with the specified key.

Events

MapChanged

Occurs when the map changes.
