This document discusses building Windows Phone applications with Silverlight. It begins with an introduction to Windows Phone 7 and outlines the Silverlight and XNA frameworks. It then focuses on developing Windows Phone 7 applications with Silverlight. Key points covered include navigation controls, push notifications, application lifecycles, and using maps, pivots and panoramas. The presentation concludes with a demo of creating a basic "Hello World" application in the simulator and exploring additional Windows Phone 7 features and services.

14. Demo
HelloWorld Application

15. Navigation and Controls
 PhoneApplicationFrame
 PhoneApplicationPage
 Using navigation services
 Handling the back button
 Control phone orientation
 Application bar – System tray
 ListBox
 WebBrowser
 Hyperlink buttons
 Media

16. Push notifications

17. Launchers and choosers
Launchers Choosers
- A “fire and forget” action, where
a specific Windows Phone
functionality is launched
- No data is returned to the
calling application
- An “open file dialog” action,
where information is selected
from a specific phone
application’s storage area
- Returns some kind of data to
the calling application
• EmailComposeTask
• MediaPlayerLauncher
• PhoneCallTask
• SaveEmailAddressTask
• SavePhoneNumberTask
• SearchTask
• SmsComposeTask
• WebBrowserTask
• MarketplaceDetailTask
• …
• EmailAddressChooserTask
• CameraCaptureTask
• PhoneNumberChooserTask
• PhotoChooserTask

18. Application lifecycle
 Only a single application can run in the foreground
 No 3rd party applications are allowed to run in the
background
 The procedure in which the operating system
terminates an application’s process when the user
navigates away from the application is called
tombstoning
 Application state information is maintained for next
launching

19. Pivot and panorama control
Pivot Panorama
- Shows multiple different pages - Presents a single page divided
to sub-pages that we can scroll
- Has a background image that
stretches across all the sub-pages
giving the feel of a wide
screen
More services:
 Bing map
 Location service
 …
