Windows 8 C#: Windows.Ui.Xaml.Media.ImageSource change Image

Question

WARNING There are two different ImageSource s in Windows API

• System.Windows.Media.ImageSource = The one of Windows Forms
• Windows.Ui.Xaml.Media.ImageSource = The one of Windows Store Apps

I'm a beginner in C# and Windows 8 Metro Style App programming stuff.

But if you want to edit the image of a Image , the "old" method with BitmapImage won't work:

XAML:

<Image Source="http://image.source.de" x:Name="Image1" />

Code-Behind C#:

Image1.Source = new BitmapImage...

won't work. The compiler will say something like

"System.Windows.Media.Imaging.BitmapImage" can't be converted to "Windows.Ui.Xaml.Media.ImageSource"

(Yes, BitmapImage can usually be converted to System.Windows.Media.ImageSource )

(System.Windows.Media.Imaging isn't anymore in the default import list of Visual Studio for Windows (StoreApps), you need to bind PresentationCore.dll first.)

So - is there any solution to edit Image1.Source than using Binding s?

Answer 1

这应该工作。

Image.Source = new Windows.UI.Xaml.Media.Imaging.BitmapImage(new System.Uri("http://image.source.de"))
