Windows Phone 7 (Mango) Tutorial - 8 - What is Page State?(www.kunal-chowdhury.com)

submitted by kunal2383(1427) 11 months, 17 days ago

Sometime you may want to save the values present in your page while switching from one page to another page, sometime you may want to store the values while switching application between foreground and background. When you are switching from one application to the other, the first app enters into the deactivated mode. At that time you can store the current state of the page and display them back again by retrieving those values from page state once you return to the first app. In this chapter we will discuss about the page state. This will help you to know the basics about it, very good for a beginner to jump start with it. read more...

The Busy Developers Guide to Mango.(michaelcrump.net)

submitted by mbcrump(1034) 11 months, 29 days ago

You’re a busy developer and you have read article after article of “What’s new in WP7 Mango” but you are only interested in knowing “What does this mean for me as a developer ?”. This is where I step in and give you the “need to know” with a quick blog post. What is it? The Beta to Windows Phone 7.1 Developer Tools named ("Mango") was released on May 24th, 2011. This means you can download the bits right now, but as far as having Mango on your phone you are going to have to wait. Let’s hit the bullet points first: Mango Beta Dev Tools requires VS2010 SP1 already installed. Applications created using it will not run on a NoDo Device. It can run side-by-side of the final WP7 release earlier this year. (So you won’t screw up your dev machine) It is a beta and you can’t submit an app using it. Visual Basic is now fully integrated into the release, but you need to uninstall VB for WP Dev Tools 7.0 First. read more...

Windows Phone 7 Jump Start with Mango - 1 - Creating a Hello World App(www.kunal-chowdhury.com)

submitted by kunal2383(1427) 11 months, 26 days ago

Recently thought to take some break from core Silverlight programming and start learning something new. As I will be working on Silverlight in office, hence decided to start exploring Windows Phone 7 in my off time. Though, it is also in Silverlight, but there we can learn something new apart from the actual Silverlight development. Now onwards, I will write about Windows Phone 7 programming and whatever I will explore, will post here in my blog. Jump started with my first exploration to create a "Hello World" application in Windows Phone 7.1 (Mango) public Beta. This is the first post of the series. As a beginner I will be contributing to the series and if something that I can improve in any of the posts/demos, please let me know by providing your inputs using the Comment box. Hope this series will help the beginners to learn about it. read more...

XNA for Silverlight developers: Part 11 - Tombstoning(www.silverlightshow.net)

submitted by KMillerr(2072) 1 year ago

An often discussed topic on Windows Phone 7 is that of “tombstoning”, which describes the process of your application being suspended and removed from the running processes (think hibernate) to free resources on the phone. The application can be “revived” later when the user navigates back to it. It’s the developer’s responsibility to create a user experience that gives the appearance of a seamless transition between applications even when tombstoning happens. For games, the basic concept is the same as for other applications; however, the implementation is done in a slightly different way. In this article, we learn about the differences between conventional Silverlight applications and games developed in XNA with regards to this concept. read more...
