PullToRefreshListView is deprecated and will be removed in a future major release

I'm planning to use PullToRefreshListView, but found it's deprecated and will be removed in a future major release. MS suggest to use the RefreshContainer available in the 1803 version of Windows.

So questions comes:

  1. Not all windows are 1803 or above, many are still 10240 or 15063, etc.

  2. RefreshContainer only exists on 1803 or above.

  3. Suppose PullToRefreshListView will be removed on 1810, Which one I should use to make sure the controls suite to both >=1810 and <1810?

Microsoft API update does not consider developers' feelings at all. No wonder many developers left.

Solution

  • You can still continue using the PullToRefreshListView by using the source directly, but Microsoft will remove it from the nuget packages in the future and will not fix bugs.
