Uploading file to Google Drive with C# code

Software, Internet and related

I had to host some files on Google Drive and they needed to be updated on regular basis. Going through the GUI is a tedious task if repeated often, so I ended up coding my own upload code.

The target is the object being extended with new functionality contained in the source. When the attached property is set on the target object, a property change event is fired on the source. The event handler is passed information about the target and the new and old values of the property.
By hooking up property changed handlers, we can add additional behavior by calling methods on the target, changing properties, and listening to events. We look at more detailed examples of using attached properties in Chapter 6, “The Power of Attached Properties.” Keep in mind that…

        Title=”MainWindow” Height=”350″ Width=”525″>

        <DataGrid Name=”dataGrid1″ HorizontalAlignment=”Left” Height=”160″ Margin=”26,23,0,0″ VerticalAlignment=”Top” Width=”419″ AutoGenerateColumns=”True” />
