Windows Phone Deploy

For Windows Phone you get a XAP file instead of an APK file.

The XAP in the ARM Release ie- ..\<Project Folder>\Bin\ARM\Release\ should be submitted to the Windows Store or Deployed to Device. Windows Phone Devices uses ARM based processors.

To generate the output-

• First Select Release from the Solution Configuration DropBox.
• Then go to configuration manager and change the AnyCPU field to ARM.
• Then Build the project.

To Run on Device-

• Open Application Deployment(a program that is installed with the Windows Phone SDK)
• Select Target Device(Phone should be connected by USB and Unlocked. For WP 7 you need Zune.)
• Browse and Select the XAP file in the \Bin\ARM\Release\
• Click Deploy Button

To Run on Emulator- (use AnyCPU Build Configuration)

• Open Application Deployment(a program that is installed with the Windows Phone SDK)
• Select Target emulator.
• Browse and Select the XAP file in the \Bin\x86\Release\
• Click Deploy Button
