Isolated Storage is not a new concept. It’s been used in Silverlight since version 2. It’s basically a way to store data or files on the local file system. It’s “isolated” because only your application has access to the data. If you have two applications, and you want to share data between them, you’d better have some kind of cloud-based service that can share that data for you. Applications will not have the ability to share, call, or interact with other applications on the device.
I will show how to perform CURD operation on XML file in Window Phone 7.
Step 1
To Develop application for Windows Phone 7 devices, you need to install Windows Phone 7.1 SDK and toolkit. You can download latest SDK for Windows Phone
http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?displaylang=en&id=27570
Step 2
SDK 7.1.1 Update
https://dev.windowsphone.com/en-us/downloadsdk
Step 3
Silverlight for Window Phone Toolkit
http://silverlight.codeplex.com/releases/view/75888
Install SDK and Toolkit on your Machine.
Step 4
Create a Window Phone Application and give the solution name as SolXML_WP7.
To start creating a new Windows Phone application, start Microsoft Visual Studio then create a new Project and select Windows Phone Application Template,it is look like this
Click on Image for better View
Step 5
Select the Window Phone Platform,it is look like this
Click on Image for better View
Step 6
Add a System.Xml.Linq Assemble reference to the project.Right click on the project name in Solution Explorer, select Add Reference and Select System.Xml.Linq and select OK button,it is look like this
Click on Image for better View
Step 7
First create Employee Entity class and Implement INotifyPropertyChanged Interface in Solution,it is look like this
The INotifyPropertyChanged interface is used to notify clients, typically binding clients, that a property value has changed.
For example, consider a Employee object with a property called FirstName. To provide generic property-change notification, the Employee type implements the INotifyPropertyChanged interface and raises a PropertyChanged event when FirstName is changed.
Step 8
Create a EmployeeOperation class to perform CURD Operation on XML file,it is look like this
IsolatedStorageFile
System.IO.IsolatedStorage.IsolatedStorageFile represents an isolated storage area containing files and directories. Since standard Silverlight also provides such support, we only need to care about the changes in Windows Phone Isolated Storage APIs from Silverlight, as follows:
Important Note for Window Phone Developer.
In Window Phone 7 its already have page state management.it is inbuilt in SDK. I write this above code to improve the usability.
So question is that how can we use Actual page state management in Window Phone 7.so here is following Code.
Now to get value from another Page.
The choice is yours which concept do you want to use in Project.
Step 10
Now a create a sample page,it is look like this
Click on Image for better View
Step 11
Now Implement code in Code behind of Main Page,it is look like this
Go to step by step,First write Page Loaded event code and then btnSubmit click event Code and finally btnViewClick event code.it's very simple.
Step 12
Now Create ListEmployee Page in Solution and Add Listbox Control in Page,it is look like this
Step 13
Create a DataTemplate for ListBox Control to display data,it is look like this
Click on Image for better View (its Sketch diagram)
Step 13
Now a apply DataTemplate on ListBox Control,it is look like this
Step 14
Now Implement code in Code behind of List Employee Page,it is look like this
In Page load Event First Bind the data to the ListBox Control and write code on Delete Button Click event to call Delete function to delete data from XML file and Finally write code on Edit button click event to navigate to main page to display selected data using SessionManager.
Run the Project.

IsolatedStorageFile
System.IO.IsolatedStorage.IsolatedStorageFile represents an isolated storage area containing files and directories. Since standard Silverlight also provides such support, we only need to care about the changes in Windows Phone Isolated Storage APIs from Silverlight, as follows:
- Remove GetUserStoreForSite
- Quota APIs will reflect that there is no quota.
- Windows Phone applications will not have a limit on the quota for storage on disk.
- Windows Phone applications will only have application storage. Since the application cannot have a site of origin, the site specific storage APIs will not be available to Windows Phone applications.
IsolatedFileStream
In Windows desktop-styled applications, System.IO.FileStream plays an important role between the disk file and related memory site. Similarly, in Windows Phone 7 System.IO.IsolatedStorage.IsolatedFileStream can expose a file stream access to a file stored within isolated storage. You can use this class to read, write and create files in isolated storage. Since this class extends FileStream, you can use an instance of IsolatedStorageFileStream in most situations where a FileStream might otherwise be used, such as to construct a StreamReader or StreamWriter.
Step 9
Now create a SessionManager static class in solution.SessionManger class enables you to store and retrieve values for a user as the user navigates pages in a Window Phone Application.it is like ASP.net session State Management.
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
namespace SolXML_WP7
{
public static class SessionManger
{
#region Declaration
private static Dictionary<String, Object> DicObj = new Dictionary<string, object>();

In Window Phone 7 its already have page state management.it is inbuilt in SDK. I write this above code to improve the usability.
So question is that how can we use Actual page state management in Window Phone 7.so here is following Code.
Microsoft.Phone.Shell.PhoneApplicationService.Current.State["Value"] = "Yogesh Naik";
this.NavigationService.Navigate(new Uri("/MainPage2.xaml",UriKind.Relative));
Now to get value from another Page.
String GetValue=PhoneApplicationService.Current.State["Value"] as String;
The choice is yours which concept do you want to use in Project.
Step 10
Now a create a sample page,it is look like this

Step 14
Now Implement code in Code behind of List Employee Page,it is look like this
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Net;
using System.Windows;
using System.Windows.Controls;
using System.Windows.Documents;
using System.Windows.Input;
using System.Windows.Media;
using System.Windows.Media.Animation;
using System.Windows.Shapes;
using Microsoft.Phone.Controls;
namespace SolXML_WP7
{
public partial class ListEmployee : PhoneApplicationPage
{
public ListEmployee()
{
InitializeComponent();
this.Loaded += (s, o) =>
{
try
{
// Get Data from XML File
List<Employee> ListEmployeeObj = EmployeeOperation.GetEmployeeData();
// Check the ListEmployee Object is NULL or not
if (ListEmployeeObj != null)
{
// Check the List Employee Object Count is grather than 0 or not
if (ListEmployeeObj.Count > 0)
{
// Bind Employee Object to ListBox
this.lstEmployee.DataContext = EmployeeOperation.GetEmployeeData();
}
else
{
// If Condition is false then navigate to main Page
MessageBox.Show("No Record in XML File");
this.NavigationService.Navigate(new Uri("/MainPage.xaml", UriKind.Relative));
}
}
else
{
// If Condition is false then navigate to main Page
MessageBox.Show("No Record in XML File");
this.NavigationService.Navigate(new Uri("/MainPage.xaml", UriKind.Relative));
}
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
MessageBox.Show(ex.Message);
}
};
}
private void btnDelete_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
{
try
{
if (MessageBox.Show("Do you want to Delete this Record?", "XML", MessageBoxButton.OKCancel) == MessageBoxResult.OK)
{
Button btnDelObj = (Button)sender;
if (btnDelObj != null)
{
// Check the Binding Class is Employee or Not
if (btnDelObj.DataContext is Employee)
{
// if Condtion is true then get data from DataContext and store in Employee Object.
Employee EmployeeObj = btnDelObj.DataContext as Employee;
// Check the Employee Object is NULL or Not
if (EmployeeObj != null)
{
// Delete data from XML file which user selected in ListBox
if (EmployeeOperation.Delete(EmployeeObj))
{
// Again bind fresh data to ListBox
this.lstEmployee.DataContext = EmployeeOperation.GetEmployeeData();
}
}
}
}
}
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
MessageBox.Show(ex.Message);
}
}
private void btnEdit_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
{
try
{
Button btnEditObj = (Button)sender;
if (btnEditObj != null)
{
// Check the Binding Class is Employee or Not
if (btnEditObj.DataContext is Employee)
{
// if Condtion is true then get data from DataContext and store in Employee Object.
Employee EmployeeObj = btnEditObj.DataContext as Employee;
// Check the Employee Object is NULL or Not
if (EmployeeObj != null)
{
// Now add this data to Seesion Manager which user selected in ListBox
SessionManger.Add<Employee>("Edit", EmployeeObj);
// and then navigate to main Page to display data in Controls
this.NavigationService.Navigate(new Uri("/MainPage.xaml", UriKind.Relative));
}
}
}
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
MessageBox.Show(ex.Message);
}
}
}
}
In Page load Event First Bind the data to the ListBox Control and write code on Delete Button Click event to call Delete function to delete data from XML file and Finally write code on Edit button click event to navigate to main page to display selected data using SessionManager.
Run the Project.
