How does GetWebLinkAsync work ?

Hi,



I'm currently working on an application using the clipboard, and since I noticed in oneNote that when you copy paste content taken from an internet browser, the url of the page is also contained in the clipboard.


I tried to implement this functionality in my windows store app,


and following the clipboard official sample I came to this:




var dataPackageView = Windows.ApplicationModel.DataTransfer.Clipboard.GetContent();

if (dataPackageView.Contains(StandardDataFormats.WebLink))
{
try
{
var weblink = await dataPackageView.GetWebLinkAsync();
}
catch (Exception ex)
{

}
}

dataPackageView.Contains(StandardDataFormats.WebLink) returns false, but when I paste the same content from the clipboard in OneNote, the url is shown.

I also tried getting information from GetUriAsync, doesn't seem to work either.



Where could I get a working sample of this method ? what have I done wrong ?



Thanks For Support !
