Thanks a lot for this fine explanation.
for my desktop app using Mobile Network Operators API I can get the privileges, when I can tell them what they have to do. For Windows Store apps this is well documented (metadata). But what have to be done for a desktop app using this interfaces?
Thank you
Ferdinand
Hi Ferdinand,
I’ve explained this topic into https://iinspectable.wordpress.com/2013/08/18/dualapi-finder-or-listing-winrt-types-usable-by-desktop-apps/ and http://blogs.msdn.com/b/mspfe/archive/2013/09/24/winrt-for-desktop-apps.aspx
Hi Christophe,
Thank you. Yes, I have now a console application that try to send a USSD message and gets always just terminated (Windows 8.1). In Windows 10 enumeration of network adapters already returns 0. I guess its because my demo app just runs out of Visual Studio and is not signed and does not have special magic (Mobile Network Operators privileges). Is there a way to test the app before I ask the Mobile Network Operator to run through all the signing steps like required for Windows store Mobile Network Operators apps?
I don’t know this API… What does MSDN specify for its availability? Is it supported for desktop apps?
