Programmatically set the Source of an Image (XAML)

Question

I am working on a Windows 8 app. I need to know how to programmatically set the Source of an Image. I assumed that the Silverlight approach would work. However, it doesn\'t.

Answer 1

This is what I use:

string url = "ms-appx:///Assets/placeHolder.png";
image.Source = RandomAccessStreamReference.CreateFromUri(new Uri(url));
