Common development tasks for Windows mobile devices

Absrtact: The part of the mobile developer community Development Magazine, "The first season of Windows Phone application development", which I was involved in, "development of common tasks for Windows Mobile devices." This article mainly introduces several development tasks that are most common in Windows Mobile, such as dialing a phone, sending SMS, contact management, and so on. This is the index page.

Preface

Today we'll take a look at the development of common tasks with managed code in Windows Phone devices. This chapter describes a few simple tasks that are most common in Windows Phone development.

Content Introduction

This chapter consists of three sections:

Personal information management. In Windows Mobile, contacts, appointments, and task information are collectively referred to as personal information. This section focuses on the development tasks associated with these personal information.

Voice calls with short messages. Telephone and SMS are the two most commonly used features of mobile devices. This section unfolds around these two tasks.

Status and notification. Status and notification are basic ways of interacting between systems and applications. This section focuses on the issues of interaction between these systems and applications.

Study Suggestions

When you install the Windows Mobile 6 SDK, the appropriate tools, documentation, and sample code are installed. It is recommended that you refer to the Windows Mobile 6 SDK Chinese files while reading this article. Of course, if the network is convenient, it is recommended to use the online version of the MSDN Web Technology repository because the online version of the document is newer, more complete, and more user-friendly. In this chapter, references to namespaces, classes, enumerations, and so on are given as links to the MSDN documentation for easy reference. The sample code recommendations in the SDK are also fully utilized.

Sample code

A large number of code snippets are used to illustrate the problem when necessary. At the end of each section, the download address for the sample code for this section is given to facilitate download and viewing. You can also click here to download it directly.

I can assure you that all the sample code that comes with this chapter is written by myself and debugged. My specific development test environment is as follows:

Operating system: Windows 7 flagship

Development tools: Visual Studio 2008 Team System 2008

Target platform: Windows Mobile 6 Profession

CF version:. Net Compact Framework virsion 2.0

Debug Device: Chinese Windows Mobile 6 Pro Emulator + my Windows Mobile 6.1 phone

Postscript

First of all honored to be able to participate in the preparation of the tutorial, you can play alongside. I used to watch other people write tutorials, this time I finally have the opportunity to write a tutorial for others (Orz). Although I have been working in the past. NET platform, but the research time of moving into mobile development is not too long, still be a novice, writing this tutorial, also did spend a lot of effort. Of course, there are many gains in this process. Limited to the level, the text will inevitably have inappropriate place, please treatise! You can go to the China Mobile developer community to communicate with me, but also welcome to my blog-mobileonline to leave a message! I hope this chapter will give you something to gain!
