Attributes

ContractVersionAttribute GuidAttribute

Remarks

Not all locations support all query options. Because folders can be retrieved by the picker and you can't control the location, you can use this method to determine whether the location supports a particular query option.

Folders in a library or the HomeGroup support all query options. Other locations only support the following options:

• A shallow enumeration, such as CommonFileQuery.DefaultQuery or CommonFolderQuery.DefaultQuery, or a QueryOptions class that was created with no constructor arguments.
• A deep, flat list of files sorted by name, such as CommonFileQuery.orderByName or the equivalent QueryOptions class.
• A deep, flat list of files sorted by search rank, such as CommonFileQuery.orderBySearchRank or the equivalent QueryOptions class.

Remarks

You can use QueryOptions and CreateFileQueryWithOptions to create an indexed backed file query that lets you get properties that rely on another app's property handler. For more information see QueryOptions.

Retrieves an object for performing shallow enumerations of the files and folders in a storage location. An app can use the object to enumerate the items in a storage location and subscribe to events that fire when the contents of the storage location change.

Don't set QueryOptions.FolderDepth to FolderDepth.Deep; deep queries do not work if you are querying files in a Digital Living Network Alliance (DLNA) device.

Retrieves a list of files based on the specified query (shallow enumeration). This returns a snapshot of the files at a point in time and does not allow you to keep track of changes through events.
