The UpdateValue method is a static extension method provided by the SandboxToolExtensions class. It is used to asynchronously update a key-value pair within a specified Package in the Sandbox environment. This method is particularly useful for modifying metadata or configuration settings associated with a package.
To use the UpdateValue method, you need to pass the following parameters:
package: The Package object that you want to update. This represents the package within which the key-value pair exists.key: A string representing the key of the value you want to update.value: A string representing the new value to be associated with the specified key.token: A CancellationToken that can be used to cancel the operation if needed.The method returns a Task, which can be awaited to ensure the operation completes before proceeding.
// Example usage of the UpdateValue method
public async Task UpdatePackageValueAsync(Package package, string key, string newValue)
{
CancellationTokenSource cts = new CancellationTokenSource();
try
{
await SandboxToolExtensions.UpdateValue(package, key, newValue, cts.Token);
// Handle success, e.g., log or update UI
}
catch (OperationCanceledException)
{
// Handle cancellation
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
// Handle other exceptions
}
}
