A String containing the name of the file group, if the event occurred as the result of a call to DownloadFileGroupAsync; otherwise, a zero-length string.

Examples

The following code example downloads a file group named HelpFiles, and displays download progress in a status bar. This example requires that you deploy a Windows Forms application, and that your main form has a StatusStrip control, and a ToolStripStatusLabel control named downloadStatus.

    if (ApplicationDeployment::IsNetworkDeployed)
    {
        ApplicationDeployment^ ad =

            gcnew AsyncCompletedEventHandler(this,
            &Form1::LaunchAppUpdate_UpdateCompleted);

        ad->UpdateAsync();
    }
}

    AsyncCompletedEventArgs^ e)

            }

Remarks

You can initiate multiple calls to DownloadFileGroupAsync and download multiple file groups simultaneously. Use Group to determine which event callbacks correspond to which group.
