i used capdetection tool for generating capabilities of of my wp7 app. when i pasted the capabilities generated by the tool, application build was successful but after installing in device application was not opening, after that i reverted back the previously present capabilities in manifest file and then app was launching fine. Is there any problem with capdetection tool. Can some one tell me the problem about the tool, Is that a certification requirement using capdetection tool for declaring capabilities in manifest file?
The tool exists so you can test your app with the capabilities it will be given when available through the marketplace. If you ignore the situation you have described you could end up failing marketplace certification or end up with an app that is unusable.
You are likely relying on a capability that the tool can't detect through static analysis.
I woudl strongly recommend you work out what this capability is and use it in a way that the tool can detect.
You do no need to run the tool for certification, they run it during submission and replace the contents of the file regardless of what you put in there.
I believe the main purpose of it is so you can know in advance what services are going to be requested, giving you a chance to check they are correct.
For example some ad controls include location tracking and if you unexpectedly get that capability added on submission, you will probably fail as you need to ask the user and show privacy statements to have that capability.

I have been in the process of migrating one of my project from a standard UWP project to an Uno platform based project to allow me a wider variety of devices to publish to. After overcoming a number of hurdles I generate my msixbundle and submit this to the Microsoft store. Because the original application was published with a .appxupload it need too be some kind of bundle to accept it. When i submit the bundle i receive the following warning
Package acceptance validation warning: The following restricted
capabilities require approval before you can use them in your app:
runFullTrust.
In my package manifest the only capability ticked is Internet (Client). Nothing else is ticked and the application doesn't need anything to work.
Any idea where this has come from or is set and how I might go about changing this to the correct value. I have done quite a bit of googling and some places suggest ticking or unticking certain things on the package submission page(nothing i ticked on unticked seemed to help) or is this simply because it is uno platform?
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Edit
As a test I created a brand new uno platform application I also created a new app in the Microsoft app store linked the two. Left every single capability unticked(that's right none were checked) produced and msix submitted it to the store and i am receiving the exact same error. This leads me to think this is because it is an UNO platform app.
In case it is useful im using vs 2022 17.3.6.
This being a store submission question, you may want to check out UWP community server; plenty of people there with apps in the store, someone must have hit the same roadblock as you. https://uwpcommunity.com/
What's the lowest effort way to get a site with server-generated pages (in my case Laravel/PHP) running as a PhoneGap/Cordova app? I'd rather not have to convert the whole thing into a single page app before importing into PhoneGap/Cordova.
Is it possible to use PhoneGap/Cordova as a very thin wrapper and still load each page live from the server? And if so, how exactly please? I don't think we need any native phone APIs.
Reason for the whole thing is my client insists on "having an app" even though obviously our site will work in a mobile web browser and can have an icon on the user's phone.
Many thanks
Unfortunately for your app to pass Apple App store approval it will have to provide some basic functions and display correctly without an internet connection. This means at a minimum, if you plan to generate content on a server you will probably need the Cordova plugin for network information:
https://cordova.apache.org/docs/en/latest/reference/cordova-plugin-network-information/
I would make sure you are familiar with the Apple Human Interface Guidelines:
https://developer.apple.com/ios/human-interface-guidelines/overview/design-principles/
You will probably also need to bundle any JavaScript. Apple is very picky about apps that download code (this can include JavaScript).
This is a section from the iOS developer Agreement.
3.3.2 Except as set forth in the next paragraph, an Application may not download or install
executable code. Interpreted code may only be used in an Application if all scripts, code and
interpreters are packaged in the Application and not downloaded. The only exceptions to the
foregoing are scripts and code downloaded and run by Apple's built-in WebKit framework or
JavascriptCore, provided that such scripts and code do not change the primary purpose of the
Application by providing features or functionality that are inconsistent with the intended and
advertised purpose of the Application as submitted to the App Store.
The following is my opinion only
My fear is that if you go at it in a low effort way, best case you will fail app approval. Worst case it will leave users with a poor experience or worse, a poor image of your client. Do it properly and give the app some extra functions that you can't have in a browser alone. I would advise your client of this and see if they would like a proper app that engages their customers and provides them with a great experience.
I am looking for a solution to simulate vxml application in a desktop/web browser.
Challenge
i have few hundreds of unit test cases in every new vxml application development.
it is not possible to always make a test call to test every single unit test cases i have. if i can test vxml application in a simulator it will be more easy to test it..
i am aware of that avaya Dialog designer/AAOD have a feature to test application in their inbuild Application simulator which comes with AAOD/DD Eclipse package but this tool can run AAOD/DD projects in workspace alone.
Please refer : Chapter 16 in Avaya dev guide
AAOD's Tool looks like this
is it possible to customize to use this tool to simulate static VXML / Nuance NDF based VXML application ?
or any other tools available ?
Unit testing of IVR applications is challenging and it is near impossible to hit ever possible path in the call flow for an application of any size. I am not aware if you can customize Avaya's tool for your needs. But there is a product out there that may fit some of your requirements. It is Voiyager by Syntellect. It looks like they have a free trial now if you want to try it out. I saw a demonstration of it at SpeechTEK a few years ago and it was pretty impressive. The only reason I did not pursue it at the time is that it was pretty pricey.
Avaya od/dd is a platform dependent tool(IDE) where you can create (vxml+java), test and debug application in the tool. But code which is created outside(Avaya OD/DD tool) the environment is not possible. Because code generated in avaya OD is java format, while executing in the voice browser it is converted into vxml for that u need to give webLM a license to avaya tool.You can use some ivr automation tools like hammer etc.But you need to pay for the software.
VXML apps are just WARs. The only session information transferred between invocations of pages is the session id. We have used Apache JMeter to create apps.
What you can do it try and see if what you want to do can be done via the web browser, by going to http://<server>/<Application/Start there fill the boxes you require (most of the time just filling the ones marked ANI and DNIS will be enough). If your call can be tested this way you can use the tools for web testing, without using Orchestration Designer.
If your app has a CTI/AES connector you may not be able to do this, because the web server tries to connect to AES upon submitting the first page.
As stated above , there are things that cannot be unit tested .
Nuance NDF and SVF applications come with test pages where you can simulate the call flow ; similar tools exit for grammars .
I have a local desktop app that needs a UI overhaul, the data in this app is largely driven by a back end DB and the best tools available to make a user friendly UI for this kind of system seems to be to build it as a web app.
However, the primary function of this tool is to have the user make a choice from a list and then use that to kick off a perforce sync on their local machine.
This app needs to run on both Windows and OSX so, my first thought was to use a cross platform GUI framework like wxWidgets and embed a web view for all of the functionality apart from the sync step. However all the wx based web views I have found seem to be very limiting.
So, what are my other options? Is there anyway to invoke a p4 sync from a browser, or is a local app with an embedded web view my only viable choice?
You might be able to use the P4 Javascript API and build your app as a tool accessible from P4V. Not sure if the P4V part of that would be a deal breaker for you.
I'm not sure if the Javascript API is available outside of the context of P4V. If it is, then you should be able to use that to build whatever kind of web app that you want.
I ended up writing a browser plugin that invokes a p4 sync operation to solve this problem.
I used the firebreath framework to provide a javascript api that allows me to invoke a p4 sync on the users' local machine. To do this I needed to be able to have a p4.ini already present on the local machine and know it's location, or I needed to pass the user/pass and client workspace to the plugin.
This works fairly well, but it's not as clean as I would like, piping the output of the sync process to the browser seems to be slow, and the output seems to scroll for a lot longer than the process runs.
I found so far javascript and IronRuby is available? My main intention is to get information about available way to have run time execution in wp7 application. In other words I want to achieve dynamic behavior without recompiling my app. Wish to listen your input.
As a general rule this isn't available as if true dynamic behaviour was avbailable it would invalidate the purpose of having a certification process before being allowed into the marketplace.
If the logic of the app could be completely changed then the certification process would be pointless.
