Make Purchase

In order to purchase a product you will construct a PurchaseRequest object and pass it to the makePurchase function.

var request:PurchaseRequest = new PurchaseRequest()
.setProductId( "XXXXXXXXXXXX" );

WindowsStore.service.makePurchase( request );

The makePurchase call will dispatch one of the following events:

  • PurchaseEvent.MAKE_PURCHASE_COMPLETE: Dispatched when the purchase completed successfully;
  • PurchaseEvent.MAKE_PURCHASE_ERROR: Dispatched when an error occurred.
var request:PurchaseRequest = new PurchaseRequest()
.setProductId( "XXXXXXXXXXXX" );

WindowsStore.service.addEventListener( PurchaseEvent.MAKE_PURCHASE_COMPLETE, makePurchase_completeHandler );
WindowsStore.service.addEventListener( PurchaseEvent.MAKE_PURCHASE_ERROR, makePurchase_errorHandler );

WindowsStore.service.makePurchase( request );

function makePurchase_completeHandler( event:PurchaseEvent ):void
{
// event.purchases should contain one Purchase object with the product info
for each (var purchase:Purchase in event.purchases)
{
trace( purchase.toString() );
}
}

function makePurchase_errorHandler( event:PurchaseEvent ):void
{
trace( "ERROR: ["+event.errorCode + "] :"+event.errorMessage );
}

The PurchaseEvent.MAKE_PURCHASE_COMPLETE event should contain one Purchase object with the product information of the product purchased. At this point there will be no extended information so you can query getPurchases if you need additional information on store managed purchases.
