windows-phone-8 - Windows 8 手机应用程序

Question

我是 Windows Phone 应用程序开发的新手。我想为 Windows Phone 7/7.5/8 构建应用程序

我对环境设置有一些疑问：

1. 我们是否需要 windows8 0S 来开发应用程序？

2. 我们可以在 windows vista 操作系统中开发应用程序吗？

3. 能否请您说出 Windows 应用程序开发所需的工具？什么都需要下载？我在哪里可以找到？

开发应用程序的初学者指南将不胜感激。

Answer 1

1. 是的，您需要 Windows 8 来进行 WP8 开发。
2. 不，您需要 Windows 8 进行 WP8 开发（尽管您可以使用 XP 或更高版本进行 WP7.5）
3. 视窗电话 SDK 8.0

Answer 2

1. 是的，您需要 Windows 8。IDE 不会安装在较旧的操作系统上。

   此外，如果您希望能够运行可以查看/调试程序的 Windows Phone 模拟器，则需要 Windows 8 64 位。

   Moreover, your computer needs to be modern enough, the processor must support Hyper-V virtualization which is another prerequisite for the Windows Phone emulator. If you don't have this support, then again, you won't be able to debug on the emulator. You can use coreinfo to learn whether your computer qualifies.

2. No. The only thing you can do on Windows Vista is run a virtual machine with Windows 8. Make sure your virtualization software supports Hyper-V, and the guest Windows 8 OS is 64-bit.

3. You need Windows Phone SDK. That is all.

Also note that in order to debug your application on an actual phone you will need a developer account at Microsoft. This costs $99 per year. If you're a student (and can prove that to Microsoft in some way), you will be granted with a free-of-charge account.

The account lets you to unblock up to three actual phone devices for development. You'll be able to install your program only on those. In order to install on other phones, you will need to upload your program to Windows Store.
