InPlaceHostingManager.GetManifestCompleted Event

Occurs when the deployment manifest has been downloaded to the local computer.

Namespace: System.Deployment.Application
Assembly: System.Deployment (in system.deployment.dll)

'Declaration
Public Event GetManifestCompleted As EventHandler(Of GetManifestCompletedEventArgs)
'Usage
Dim instance As InPlaceHostingManager
Dim handler As EventHandler(Of GetManifestCompletedEventArgs)

AddHandler instance.GetManifestCompleted, handler

/** @event */
public void add_GetManifestCompleted (EventHandler<GetManifestCompletedEventArgs> value)

/** @event */
public void remove_GetManifestCompleted (EventHandler<GetManifestCompletedEventArgs> value)

In JScript, you can handle the events defined by a class, but you cannot define your own.
Not applicable.

Use the Error property of GetManifestCompletedEventArgs to check whether GetManifestAsync completed successfully or returned an error. If Error is null, GetManifestAsync completed successfully, and you can call AssertApplicationRequirements.

The following code examples demonstrate how to call the GetManifestAsync method. The handler for the GetManifestCompleted event callback checks to see if the manifest download completed successfully, and if so, prompts the user with additional information about the application. If the user agrees to continue the installation, the handler calls DownloadApplicationAsync.

The following code examples assume that you have already defined and created an instance of InPlaceHostingManager named iphm.

Dim WithEvents iphm As InPlaceHostingManager = Nothing

Private Sub InstallApplication(ByVal deployManifestUriStr As String)
    Try
        Dim deploymentUri As New Uri(deployManifestUriStr)
        iphm = New InPlaceHostingManager(deploymentUri, False)
        MessageBox.Show("Created the object.")
    Catch uriEx As UriFormatException
        MessageBox.Show("Cannot install the application: The deployment manifest URL supplied is not a valid URL." & _
            "Error: " & uriEx.Message)
        Return
    Catch platformEx As PlatformNotSupportedException
        MessageBox.Show("Cannot install the application: This program requires Windows XP or higher. " & _
            "Error: " & platformEx.Message)
        Return
    Catch argumentEx As ArgumentException
        MessageBox.Show("Cannot install the application: The deployment manifest URL supplied is not a valid URL." & _
            "Error: " & argumentEx.Message)
        Return

    iphm.GetManifestAsync()

Private Sub iphm_GetManifestCompleted(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As GetManifestCompletedEventArgs) Handles iphm.GetManifestCompleted
