WidgetAnalyticsInfoReportedArgs	Provides data for the OnAnalyticsInfoReported event which is raised when the widget host reports analytics data associated with a user interaction with a widget.
WidgetContext	Provides information about the configuration of a widget within the widget host.
WidgetContextChangedArgs	Provides data for the IWidgetProvider.OnWidgetContextChanged(WidgetContextChangedArgs) callback.
WidgetCustomizationRequestedArgs	Provides data for the OnCustomizationRequested event which is raised when the user has requested widget customization through the widget host UI.
WidgetErrorInfoReportedArgs	Provides data for the OnErrorInfoReported event which is raised when the widget host reports a widget error.
WidgetInfo	Contains status information for a widget, including the visual template, data template, custom state, the last update time, and context information from the widget host.
WidgetManager	Provides methods for querying, updating, and deleting widgets.
WidgetUpdateRequestOptions	Provides data for calls to WidgetManager.UpdateWidget(WidgetUpdateRequestOptions).

Interfaces

IWidgetManager	The interface that is implemented by the WidgetManager class, which provides methods for querying, updating and deleting widgets.
IWidgetProvider	This interface is implemented by Windows Widget providers to receive callbacks from the widget host for widget lifetime events.
IWidgetProvider2	This interface is implemented by Windows widget providers to receive callbacks from the widget host for widget customization events.
IWidgetProviderAnalytics	This optional interface can be implemented by Windows widget providers to receive callbacks from the widget host for widget analytics events.
IWidgetProviderErrors	This interface is implemented by Windows widget providers to receive callbacks from the widget host for widget errors.

Remarks

IWidgetProvider is the interface that must be implemented by widget providers in order to receive callback notifications for widget lifecycle events. This interface must be implemented as an Out-of-process COM Server.

The WidgetManager class provides methods for updating, querying, and deleting widgets.
