Public methodSupported by Silverlight for Windows Phone Equals(Object) Determines whether the specified Object is equal to the current Object. (Inherited from Object.)
Protected methodSupported by Silverlight for Windows Phone Finalize Allows an object to try to free resources and perform other cleanup operations before the Object is reclaimed by garbage collection. (Inherited from Object.)
Public methodSupported by Silverlight for Windows Phone GetAnimationBaseValue Returns any base value established for a Silverlight dependency property, which would apply in cases where an animation is not active. (Inherited from DependencyObject.)
Public methodSupported by Silverlight for Windows Phone GetHashCode Serves as a hash function for a particular type. (Inherited from Object.)

Events

  Name Description
Public eventSupported by Silverlight for Windows Phone DownloadProgress Occurs when a significant change has occurred in the download progress of the BitmapImage content.
Public eventSupported by Silverlight for Windows Phone ImageFailed Occurs when there is an error associated with image retrieval or format.
Public eventSupported by Silverlight for Windows Phone ImageOpened Occurs when the image source is downloaded and decoded with no failure. You can use this event to determine the size of an image before rendering it.

Remarks

The BitmapImage can be used to reference images in the JPEG and PNG file formats.

If the Image.Source property is set to an invalid format, or is specified to a URI that cannot be resolved, then the ImageFailed event is raised.

There are two ways to specify the graphics content for a BitmapImage: by URI, or by stream. You can set with either of these, and the behavior is that the last technique used will specify the content.

XAML usage for BitmapImage as an object element is uncommon, because it would only be appropriate for setting a BitmapImage as the object element within a property element usage for setting Image.Source. More typically you would use Image and use the URI to set Image.Source as an attribute.
