Query app bundle info sample

This sample shows how to query info about a bundle package using the Packaging API.

The sample covers these tasks:

• Use IAppxBundleFactory::CreateBundleReader to create a bundle reader, and then IAppxBundleReader::GetManifest to get IAppxBundleManifestReader for the bundle manifest reader
• Use IAppxBundleManifestReader::GetPackageId to get an IAppxManifestPackageId to read package identity info
• Use IAppxBundleManifestReader::GetPackageInfoItems to get IAppxBundleManifestPackageInfoEnumerator to iterate through the list of payload packages that are described in a bundle package manifest. Then, use IAppxBundleManifestPackageInfo to get info about each package.

To get a copy of Windows, go to Downloads and tools.

To get a copy of Visual Studio, go to Visual Studio Downloads.
