IXRVisualStateGroupCollection::Contains

Determines whether an item is in this collection.

IXRVisualStateGroupCollection::GetCount

Retrieves the number of items in this collection.

IXRVisualStateGroupCollection::GetItem

Retrieves the item at the specified index in this collection.

IXRVisualStateGroupCollection::IndexOf

Searches for the specified item and retrieves the zero-based index of its last occurrence within this collection.

IXRVisualStateGroupCollection::Insert

Inserts an item into this collection at the specified index.

IXRVisualStateGroupCollection::Remove

Removes a specific item from this collection.

IXRVisualStateGroupCollection::RemoveAt

Removes the item at the specified.

Thread Safety

Members of this class are thread safe if you previously called IXRApplication::CreateHostFromXaml and supplied it with an XRWindowCreateParams structure that has AllowsMultipleThreadAccess set to true.

Remarks

Do the following to create a new collection of visual state groups:

  1. Use the IXRApplication::CreateObject(IID,Object) method to create an empty IXRVisualStateGroupCollection object.
  2. Use CreateObject to create multiple IXRVisualStateGroup objects that each define the visual appearance for states and state transitions for an IXRUserControl object.
  3. Add each IXRVisualStateGroup object to the IXRVisualStateGroupCollection collection by calling the IXRVisualStateGroupCollection::Add method.
  4. Set the new collection for an IXRFrameworkElement child element of an IXRUserControl object, retrieved by the method IXRUserControl::GetContent. To do this, call IXRDependencyObject::SetAttachedProperty(const WCHAR*, const WCHAR*, IXRDependencyObject*) on the child element and set the value for its attached property VisualStateManager.VisualStateGroups.

When you create a class instance, use an IXRVisualStateGroupCollectionPtr smart pointer instead of a raw interface pointer. For more information, see XRPtr<Interface>.

You can also define this collection in Microsoft Silverlight 3 XAML. For information about the differences between XAML in XAML for Windows Embedded and Silverlight 3, see Differences Between Microsoft Silverlight 3 and XAML for Windows Embedded. For more information about how to define this collection in the source XAML for your application, see the VisualStateGroup Class on MSDN.

Note

The contents of a ControlTemplate defined in Microsoft Silverlight 3 XAML cannot be accessed from C++. Therefore, visual-state groups that were defined in a ControlTemplate in the source XAML for your application cannot be accessed in XAML for Windows Embedded object tree.

.NET Framework Equivalent

None.
