[This documentation is preliminary and is subject to change.]

Invoked when the application is launched. Override this method to perform application initialization and to display initial content in the associated Window.

Syntax

protected virtual void OnLaunched(
  LaunchActivatedEventArgs args
)

Parameters

args

Type: LaunchActivatedEventArgs

Event data for the event.

Remarks

Override the OnLaunched method to perform any general app initialization that should occur only when the user launches your app normally (for example, by tapping the app tile). For info on other kinds of activation, see OnActivated.

The starting project templates include a basic implementation for OnLaunched. The implementation sets the initial root visual for the application by setting Window.Current.Content to a new instance of the class defined by the project template's MainPage XAML/code-behind pair.
