Windows Phone 7

  • Artikel

I recently got the newly released Windows Phone 7 (the Samsung Focus). So far, I love it! This is my first smart-phone.  It’s nice to join the 21st century.

I’m also poking around with how to write apps for it. It was easy to download C# Express and WP7 tools and get started with the emulator.

  1. I started with ScottGu’s blog announcing the release of WP7 Dev tools. You can download the tools here.
  2. I did the “My first WP7 app” tutorial, which shows hosting a web browser control. It worked flawlessly in the emulator.
  3. I also looked at Scott’s blog on writing a Twitter app.
  4. This is a nice MSDN summary of basic tasks.

WP7 user apps are written in WPF (or XNA). I never really needed WPF when writing debugging stacks, so I’m feeling the pain from the learning curve here.

    Are WP7 apps written in WPF or Silverlight?

    Hi Mike, Sorry to post an irrelevant comment here.  I actually wanted to post about your RTF to HTML converter, which you posted here: blogs.msdn.com/.../rtf_5F00_html.aspx but that is now closed to comments! I'm trying to use your code, but it's crashing all over the place - has the RTF spec changed in the interim, since you wrote this code?  I'm testing on a simple "Hello World" file I wrote using the Windows 7 version of WordPad, and the converter can't deal with it. If you'll reply directly to me (sbehr.at.sabreton.com) I'll give you more details. Thanks!
