Well, if you wrote your app well, you only have to rewrite the user interface...

Yes, Microsoft always offer backward compatibility in all its Windows versions.

How can I enumerate a network printer connected in a network in my Metro Style App, and obtain its IP Address.
|

I am working on a C# Metro app in VS2011 Beta. When I run the Windows App Certification Kit my application doesn't show up. What's strange is that other apps I've done do show up. I have no answer for why some show up and some don't.
Anyone know what needs to be done in VS or my app to make it visible in the app cert tool?

Mind sharing how you resolved it?

I'm sorry I can't. It's covered under our NDA.

No problem, that was what I guessed when you posted that message but thought I'd double-check to be sure.

I have Windows 8 installed in Virtual Box.
I just can't snap 2 metro on the screen.... :/
Can you?
Is it because of Virtual Box?
What kind of mouse gesture magic should I do?
A train station is where the train stops. A bus station is where the bus stops. On my desk, I have a work station....

Not 100% sure on this, but not all apps support snap. My understanding is that the app has to opt in (by providing a snap-specific view/xaml).

In case of system resource access, Metro Apps work in the same way as Silverlight. So you need to explicitly provide access for the application to access Webcam and Microphone. You can give this permission in Capabilities tab of Application Manifest.

tss... the snap is not a functionality of the app, it's a functionality of the OS!
You can snap the desktop and an app!
But I figured out the problem, the Win8 VM only allowed for 128Mb video memory... And many thing didn't work properly!
I installed Win8 on my old rusty laptop and all works fine now!
(Wondering about installing it on my desktop, the answer is NO for now...)

What if I write a C++ app, build an x86, x64 and ARM version.
How should I publish it?
Make 3 apps?
Other option?

Didn't you ask this on the MSDN forums too?
Anyway, just for the benefit of anyone else reading this thread, you need to publish 3 separate versions, one for each platform.

3 apps, 1 installer is usually the best option... let the installer allow the user to choose what to install (or choose automatically for them).
