windows-8.1

I have a solution with a Windows Store app project and a Class Library project and I want to add Localization support. How can I add the all the Resource files to my Class Library and use them in both my App and Class Library? In order to avoid writing a lot of boilerplate and error prone code when you add a new resource string like: Add it to .resw file Add it to your Static class that provides access to the resource Add it to each language specific .resw file (ex: en, fr, pt, etc) You can use the following approach: Create "Strings" folder and add there just one folder for default language

I need help with this: Our backend is secured by self-signed certificate. Lets call it: OurMegaCoolCertificate.cer So, we have imported this certificate to our developers machines by using certmgr.msc . And now we can retrieve data from our backend using this code: async public static Task<string> getData(string Id, string Type) { String url = "https://BACKEND/API/?Id=" + Id + "&Type=" + Type; HttpClientHandler aHandler = new HttpClientHandler(); aHandler.ClientCertificateOptions = ClientCertificateOption.Automatic; HttpClient aClient = new HttpClient(aHandler); aClient.DefaultRequestHeaders

In Windows 8/8.1 it's now possible to enable/disable Bluetooth via the OS itself (see image below). This is awesome because it's device/driver-agnostic. On Android, this is possible via BluetoothAdapter.enable() and BluetoothAdapter.disable() , but I haven't been able to find anything to do this on Windows (even though it seems like it's definitely possible). So I've tried using: BluetoothEnableIncomingConnections() - However, this only prevents new incoming connections. It doesn't disable existing ones. devcon.exe - The problem with this method is that A. it is a non-redistributable binary B.

I am trying to retrieve the target path of a Windows .lnk shortcut, but the "Target" is not an actual file path according to the .lnk file's properties: I am using the IWshRuntimeLibrary and the shortcut object I am accessing is of type IWshShortcut: WshShell shell = new WshShell(); IWshShortcut link = (IWshShortcut)shell.CreateShortcut(lnkFileName); // This returns "C:\Windows\Installer\{F843C6A3-224D-4615-94F8-3C461BD9AEA0}\PaintShopProExeIcon.ico" var targetPath = link.TargetPath; // This is the same as the "Start in" value in the image above var workingDir = link.WorkingDirectory; The

As far as I know 32bit Delphi desktop applications cannot be certified for Windows 8.1 due lack of SafeSEH via Can a desktop Delphi application be certified for Windows 8 But what about 64bit Delphi desktop applications? Can they pass other requirements, since they don't have to satisfy SafeSEH requirement? Are there any compiler/linker settings that have to be set to specific values if the answer is yes, and what is minimum Delphi version needed (obviously at least XE2). I am specifically considering section 3 of certification requirements. 3. Apps support Windows security features The

In the windows 8.1 universal apps, the suspend/resume modes were handled using the NavigationHelper.cs ans SuspensionManager.cs classes included in the APP template. These classes doesn't seem to be there in the windows 10 UWP apps. Is there a way by which we can handle the suspend/resume states? There's an interesting framework being developed by the community (but mostly I think Jerry Nixon, Andy Wigley etc.) called Template10. Template10 has a Bootstrapper class with OnSuspending and OnResuming virtual methods that you can override. I am not sure that there's an exact example of doing
