Silverlight has the Uri.EscapeUriString and Uri.EscapeDataString which can be used to URL-encode portions of a URI such as query strings and path components and such. Even in the desktop framework, you should never take a dependency on System.Web.dll just for HttpUtility, although many developers still do it. This is bad for 3 reasons. The assembly … Read more
c++/cli can theoretically be used with WPF/Silverlight using the trick of replacing the C# generated from the XAML with a macro definition that can be used inside the main class in a code behind file. I worked out this technique but haven’t had the motivation to take it beyond theory – I’m quite happy mixing … Read more
I’m not sure if you can programmatically force an animation to another PanoramaItem, but you can change the Panorama.DefaultItem. So you might have 3 PanoramaItem‘s and on the OnNavigatedTo() handler, change the default item via: panoramaControl.DefaultItem = panoramaControl.Items[indexToSet]; This should help when you recover from a tombstone.
If you’re happy to re-use business logic and write device specific user interfaces (more work, but better user experience on each device) you could consider the various Mono frameworks. Writing the core business logic as a class library, then writing specific user interfaces using MonoTouch, MonoDroid and Windows using .NET Framework you’ll have a cross … Read more
You’re attempting to convert the JPEG memory stream into PNG. That will make it corrupt – you should save the Bitmap directly to PNG. I haven’t tried this particular task with the imagetools library, but if you see John Papa’s blog, it looks like you need to call the ToImage extension method on your WriteableBitmap … Read more
Perhaps the most expedient approach would be to include the Silverlight for Windows Phone Toolkit. This contains a GestureService that will help with pinch and rotate touch gestures. You could apply it to an image like this:- <Image Source=”someSourceUrl” RenderTransformOrigin=”0.5, 0.5″ CacheMode=”BitmapCache”> <Image.RenderTransform> <CompositeTransform x:Name=”transform” /> </Image.RenderTransform> <toolkit:GestureService.GestureListener> <toolkit:GestureListener PinchStarted=”OnPinchStarted” PinchDelta=”OnPinchDelta” /> </toolkit:GestureService.GestureListener> </Image> Then … Read more
I had the exact same problem myself. It seems the HttpClient just disregards the credentials set in the HttpClientHandler. The following shall work however: using System.Net.Http.Headers; // For AuthenticationHeaderValue const string uri = “https://example.com/path?params=1”; using (var client = new HttpClient()) { var byteArray = Encoding.ASCII.GetBytes(“MyUSER:MyPASS”); var header = new AuthenticationHeaderValue( “Basic”, Convert.ToBase64String(byteArray)); client.DefaultRequestHeaders.Authorization = header; … Read more
Here’s a simple example: GeoCoordinateWatcher watcher; watcher = new GeoCoordinateWatcher(GeoPositionAccuracy.Default) { MovementThreshold = 20 }; watcher.PositionChanged += this.watcher_PositionChanged; watcher.StatusChanged += this.watcher_StatusChanged; watcher.Start(); private void watcher_StatusChanged(object sender, GeoPositionStatusChangedEventArgs e) { switch (e.Status) { case GeoPositionStatus.Disabled: // location is unsupported on this device break; case GeoPositionStatus.NoData: // data unavailable break; } } private void watcher_PositionChanged(object sender, GeoPositionChangedEventArgs<GeoCoordinate> … Read more
Add a meta tag in you head section in you html file. <meta name=”msapplication-tap-highlight” content=”no” /> It should work.
Unfortunately WebBrowser.Document is not available on WP7. But you can create and call a JavaScript function using InvokeScript. Have a look over here where I describe how. In short: you don’t use .Document and C# but create a piece of JavaScript instead. You then call eval with this script as parameter to invoke it. Like … Read more
