How to consume mobile map package in Xamarin.forms

[MichaelMitchell1]

Using the samples I can utilize a FeatureLayer but haven't been able to figure out how to load a mobile map package.  Any suggestions?

Thanks

            _mappackage = await OpenAsync("D:\\Source code\\Data\\Test.mmpk");
            var mapPackageUri = new Uri(_mappackage.Item.Url);
            var mapTable = new ServiceFeatureTable(mapPackageUri);
            var mapPackageFeatureLayer = new FeatureLayer(mapTable);
            myMap.OperationalLayers.Add(mapPackageFeatureLayer);

More specifically I'm not sure what to do for the OpenAsync method.

I don't understand your question.  What do you mean you are not sure what to do?

This MSDN documentation may help better explain how await works:

I'll dig into that a bit more because I'm sure this stems from my lack of experience in c# and Xamarin.  In my bit of code above I get the error that OpenAsync does not exist in the current context.  I'm not sure if I need to import something else or if I need to define OpenAsync myself.

I see what you are asking.  It is a static method so it would be something more like this:

_mappackage = await MobileMapPackage.OpenAsync("D:\\Source code\\Data\\Test.mmpk");

Thanks a lot Alexander.  That's what I needed.

Awesome!  Glad that helped!  You may want to visit the Early Adopter community as well for more direct feedback with the development team.
