Welcome » The Document Foundation Don’t forget to Encrypt your Windows Phone 7 Data AESHMACSHA1HMACSHA256Rfc2898DeriveBytesSHA1SHA256 I thought I’d take some of these algorithms for a spin by building a sample app using Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 Express for Windows Phone. All I really wanted to do is use the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) for symmetric key encryption to encrypt and decrypt some data so I could save it to Isolated Storage. Above are screenshots of the simple app I created. I also threw some buttons on there to save the newly encrypted data to Isolated Storage as an ApplicationSetting. Let’s take a look at some code. You’ll need to include the following using statements to get started: using System.IO; using System.IO.IsolatedStorage; using System.Security.Cryptography; using System.Text; The Encrypt() method below takes the data you want to encrypt as well as a password and salt value as arguments. As you can see below, the Decrypt() method looks remarkably similar to the Encrypt() method except that it does just the opposite. Keep coding, Rob

LXer: Linux News Building WP7 Custom Validation Control - Architecture & Basic Prototype published on: 4/6/2011| Views: 20228| Tags: CustomControls UI windows-phone Currently rated 4.08 by 13 people by WindowsPhoneGeek I am starting a series of 3 posts: "Building WP7 Custom Validation Control " in which I am going to talk about how to implement a fully functional, extensible and easy to use WP7 Validation Custom Control. This is the first articles, so I will start with architecture and basic prototype implementation. The idea Basically our VaidationControl will derive from TextBox and will enable users to define different validation rules(patterns). The final goal is to build a fully functional, extensible, stylable and easy to use validation control with custom logic that can be used in a Silverlight for Windows Phone 7 application. ValidationControl Architecture Here is how the basic structure of our ValidationControl should look like: Generally the control will have three important parts: 1. 2. 3. Creating the basic VaidationControl prototype Step 1 - Create the project
iOS to WP7 API Mapping Tool [Developers] Should you posess incredible coding skill in the iOS realm and be interested in the Windows Phone platform, we have some good news for you for the gap between the two operating systems. Over on the Windows Team blog, they've announced the launch of of their new WP7 API mapping tool. So, what exactly does this bring to the table for developers? Well, using the exact words on the blog, think of this tool as a “translation dictionary” for iOS familiarised developers who wish to approach WP7. With the samples of code present, developers will be able to “migrate short blogs of iOS code to the equivalent C# code.” iOS APIs can broadly be classified into the following categories: Audio / Video, Data Management, Graphics / Animation, Network / Internet, Performance, Security and User InterfaceFor current mapping, we started with 3 popular categories (Network / Internet, User Interface and Data Management) and mapped them to Windows Phone 7 API.

Globalizing and Localizing a Windows Phone App With Marketplace recently launching in 13 new markets, it's more important than ever to have a globalized, localized app that can reach as many of your customers as possible – but doing so can seem daunting. This blog post seeks to demystify the process and help enable you to write a truly global app. What is a globalized app? A globalized app displays things like dates and money in a way that's familiar to a user. This blog post will mostly focus on localizing your app – a meaty topic that can be tricky to understand. What is a localized app? You can think of a localized app as one that's been translated into one or more languages. App Text - menu headings, help text, etc. Do I have to localize my app to publish in multiple markets? No – the two actions are separate. It's important to understand that this is the only way you can choose where your app is published. If that's the case, why should I localize my app? Because you want customers around the world to enjoy – and use – your app. a.
Kerberos/Troubleshooting - Joomla! Authentication Tools (JAuthTools) From Authentication Tools for Joomla! (JAuthTools) This page documents some solutions for common Kerberos issues. It isn't comprehensive but should give you a guide what to look for when resolving the issues. kinit(v5): KRB5 error code 68 while getting initial credentials Wrong Kerberos domain, check that the Linux box is configured to use the right domain. kinit(v5): Permission denied while getting initial credentials Check the permission on your keytab file to ensure that the process can get access to it appropriately. Client not found in Kerberos database kinit(v5): Client not found in Kerberos database while getting initial credentials krb5_get_init_creds_password() failed: Client not found in Kerberos database Make sure that you're typing in the right name and the server has the right name (double check the account tab of the user, especially the realm) kinit(v5): Preauthentication failed while getting initial credentials Wrong password - use the right password.
