In my app, I want to inform user when particular action had performed, like record updated successfully or new record added, but there's not inbuilt control to that can display such information. Is there anything similar to Android Toast.makeText for UWP?
Yes, UWP has Toast Notifications :)
Here is sample code to display simple notification:
private void ShowToastNotification(string title, string stringContent)
{
ToastNotifier ToastNotifier = ToastNotificationManager.CreateToastNotifier();
Windows.Data.Xml.Dom.XmlDocument toastXml = ToastNotificationManager.GetTemplateContent(ToastTemplateType.ToastText02);
Windows.Data.Xml.Dom.XmlNodeList toastNodeList = toastXml.GetElementsByTagName("text");
toastNodeList.Item(0).AppendChild(toastXml.CreateTextNode(title));
toastNodeList.Item(1).AppendChild(toastXml.CreateTextNode(stringContent));
Windows.Data.Xml.Dom.IXmlNode toastNode = toastXml.SelectSingleNode("/toast");
Windows.Data.Xml.Dom.XmlElement audio = toastXml.CreateElement("audio");
audio.SetAttribute("src", "ms-winsoundevent:Notification.SMS");
ToastNotification toast = new ToastNotification(toastXml);
toast.ExpirationTime = DateTime.Now.AddSeconds(4);
ToastNotifier.Show(toast);
}
