Windows Azure toolkit for Windows Phone 7

  • Article

Hi all

I am having great fun playing with this toolkit to see how WP7 apps can be properly secured using the Azure Access Control Service (ACS).

I hit a couple of problems while trying to create a new 'Windows Phone Cloud Application' project in Visual Studio though, at the following screen:

1) Make sure the ACS namespace is just the <namespace> bit of https://<namespace>.accesscontrol.windows.net. Fairly obvious I guess but I have been using appfabriclabs.com and assumed that the domain name part of the namespace would resolve the Azure environment I needed. Also, it follows from this that you MUST use the production Azure environment.

2) Make sure you don't use an old ACS namespace which is still at ACS V1. The toolkit will only work with V2 because only V2 supports the required federation protocols.

Later.
