CPP WINRT API is not working in CPP Console App

Question

We are trying to implement the UWP Radio Manager program in a seperate CPP console where the function below is returning NULL.

for (Radio radio : co_await( Radio::GetRadiosAsync()))

Can you help us in implementing this in a CPP console?

Answer 1

You must compile as x64 if the OS is x64 : there is in the doc at Radio.GetRadiosAsync :

When this method is called from a desktop application (Win32), it will retrieve radio instances only when the application is natively compiled for the target architecture
(in other words, when the application matches the computer architecture; so an x86 application running on an x64 architecture computer won't see any radio instances).
