Render XML to XAML within C++ Applications
Convert XML to XAML within your C++ Applications without using Microsoft® PowerPoint
Why to Convert
As a C++ developer, you may need to integrate XML to XAML conversion feature inside your C++ applications. XAML is a markup language used to define user interfaces in Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF) applications. It is a powerful language that allows developers to create visually stunning user interfaces. XML, on the other hand, is a markup language used to store and transport data. It is a popular choice for data storage and exchange. Converting XML to XAML can help you create visually appealing user interfaces for your applications.
How Aspose.Total Helps for XML to XAML Conversion
Aspose.Total for C++ is a comprehensive suite of APIs that provides developers with the tools they need to create powerful applications. It includes APIs for PDF, Slides, and other file formats. With Aspose.Total for C++, you can easily export XML to PPTX and convert PPTX to XAML.
To export XML to PPTX, you can use Aspose.PDF for C++. It is a powerful API that allows you to create, edit, and convert PDF documents. With Aspose.PDF for C++, you can easily export XML to PPTX.
To convert PPTX to XAML, you can use Aspose.Slides for C++. It is a powerful API that allows you to create, edit, and convert presentations. With Aspose.Slides for C++, you can easily convert PPTX to XAML.
Both APIs come under Aspose.Total for C++ package. With Aspose.Total for C++, you can easily export XML to PPTX and convert PPTX to XAML in two simple steps. It is a comprehensive suite of APIs that provides developers with the tools they need to create powerful applications.
C++ API to Export XML to XAML
- Open XML file using Document class reference
- Convert XML to PPTX by using Save method function
- Load PPTX document by using Presentation class reference
- Save the document to XAML format using
Save
member function and set
Xamlas SaveFormat
Get Started with C++ File Automation APIs
Install from command line as nuget install Aspose.Total.Cpp or via Package Manager Console of Visual Studio with Install-Package Aspose.Total.Cpp.
Alternatively, get the offline MSI installer or DLLs in a ZIP file from downloads .
// load XML file with an instance of Document class
auto doc = MakeObject<Document>(u"template.xml");
// save XML as PPTX format
doc->Save(u"PptxOutput.pptx", SaveFormat::Pptx);
// instantiate a Presentation object that represents a PPTX file
SharedPtr<Presentation> prs = MakeObject<Presentation>(u"PptxOutput.pptx");
// save the presentation as Xaml format
prs->Save(u"output.xaml", Aspose::Slides::Export::SaveFormat::Xaml);
Change Password of XML Document via C++
In the process of rendering XML to XAML, you can open a password protected XML and also change its password. In order to change the password of a XML file, you must know the owner password of that document. You can load password protected PDF document with Aspose.PDF for C++ by specifying its owner password and use ChangePasswords method to change the password.
// load an existing XML Document
auto doc = MakeObject<Document>(L"input.xml", L"owner");
// change password of XML Document
doc->ChangePasswords(L"owner", L"newuser", L"newuser");
// save the document
doc->Save(L"output.Doc");
Add Images From Web in XAML File via C++
After converting XML to XAML, you can also add images from web to your output document. Aspose.Slides for C++ supports operations with images in these popular formats: JPEG, PNG, BMP, GIF, and others. You can add one or several images on your computer onto a slide in a presentation. This sample code in C++ shows you how to add an image to a XAML file
// instantiate a Presentation object that represents a XAML file
auto pres = System::MakeObject<Presentation>("output.xaml");
// get slide
auto slide = pres->get_Slides()->idx_get(0);
// initialize Web Client
auto webClient = System::MakeObject<WebClient>();
// get image data
auto imageData = webClient->DownloadData(System::MakeObject<Uri>(u"[REPLACE WITH URL]"));
// add image
auto image = pres->get_Images()->AddImage(imageData);
// add picture frame
slide->get_Shapes()->AddPictureFrame(ShapeType::Rectangle, 10.0f, 10.0f, 100.0f, 100.0f, image);
// save updated file
pres->Save(u"updated.xaml", SaveFormat::Xaml);
