Examples

The File picker contracts sample demonstrates how to set update information for a file in its TargetFileRequested event handler.

private async void OnTargetFileRequested(FileSavePickerUI sender, TargetFileRequestedEventArgs e)
{
    // Handle the TargetFileRequested event on the background thread on which it was raised

    // Requesting a deferral allows the app to call another asynchronous method and complete the request at a later time
    var deferral = e.Request.GetDeferral();

    StorageFile file = await ApplicationData.Current.LocalFolder.CreateFileAsync(sender.FileName, CreationCollisionOption.ReplaceExisting);

    // Set update info for the file
    CachedFileUpdater.SetUpdateInformation(file, "CachedFile", ReadActivationMode.NotNeeded, WriteActivationMode.AfterWrite, CachedFileOptions.RequireUpdateOnAccess);

    // Assign the resulting file to the targetFile property and complete the deferral to indicate success  
    e.Request.TargetFile = file;
    deferral.Complete();
}
