Can an APPX Windows Store Package contain multiple “applications”?

这一生的挚爱 提交于 2019-12-20 04:06:30
问题 I'm trying to understand the appxmanifest file for APPX packages better. I noticed it has an <Applications> tag followed by a single <Application> tag for every example I've seen. It would appear though that multiple "applications" can be included in the Manifest. What would this actually even mean though? Is this actually possible or was Microsoft just thinking about forward compatibility when designing the AppxManifest schema? 回答1: The manifest does define this as a possibility, and with

Windows UWP - Modify AppX Package At Runtime

旧城冷巷雨未停 提交于 2019-12-11 06:32:21
问题 We need to dynamically load assemblies at runtime in order to include customization for our users. However, after looking all over the web, I cannot find any information on whether Microsoft plan to make this feature possible or not. I have started a feature request here: https://wpdev.uservoice.com/forums/110705-universal-windows-platform/suggestions/18145291-dynamically-load-assembly Failing that, I figured that it may be possible to manually add assemblies in to the AppX package, and then

Fixing scaled images in AppX manifest generated by Destop App Converter

烈酒焚心 提交于 2019-12-10 17:17:42
问题 I have used the Desktop App Converter to convert my Win32 application to .appx . The converter failed to convert application icons correctly. Icon transparency was lost. While I have reported this (bug?) to Microsoft, meanwhile I'd like to try to convert the icons manually. And I want to generate the .appx manually (using the makeappx ) in the end anyway. So I need to create the AppxManifest.xml . Problem is that the AppxManifest.xml generated by the Desktop App Converter is not valid. All

问题 I have finally succeeded converting my desktop app to AppX with Desktop App Converter, and to sign it with the insight from Franklin Chen. Step by step, I am getting closer to completion. But I am now bumping into a new hurdle (hopefully the last). I tried to follow the advice at https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/vcblog/2016/07/07/using-visual-c-runtime-in-centennial-project/ I did install on my machine vc_uwpdesktop.110.exe, vc_uwpdesktop.120.exe and vc_uwpdesktop.140.exe. But still not joy.

appxupload package not being generated. Only test package is being generated

余生颓废 提交于 2019-12-07 12:46:25
问题 I am developing a universal windows app. When I try to create package using Store->Create App packages, it is creating only test packages. In AppPackages directory, I can find only one folder with _test. How do I ensure that .appxupload package gets created that can be uploaded to windows store. 回答1: Look in your Projekt.csproj.user file if AppxPackageIsForStore is set to true. <PropertyGroup> <ProjectView>ShowAllFiles</ProjectView> <AppxPackageIsForStore>True</AppxPackageIsForStore>
