Android SDK 28 - versionCode in PackageInfo has been deprecated

Question

I just upgraded my app\'s compileSdkVersion to 28 (Pie).

I\'m getting a compilation warning:

warning: [deprecation]

Answer 1

Just for others using Xamarin, my answer was:

public long GetBuild()
{
    var context = global::Android.App.Application.Context;
    PackageManager manager = context.PackageManager;
    PackageInfo info = manager.GetPackageInfo(context.PackageName, 0);

    return info.LongVersionCode;
}
