WPF vs Windows Store app

Postby venom1988 » 14 Dec 2015, 11:59

Dear all,
I have just bought the Eye Tribe and I want to create my app using it.
Can I create a normal Windows Store app for Windows 8.1 and Windows 10? Or Can I just create WPF application?

Thank you
Gianluca

Interprocess communication is not permitted in Win8 and Windows Store Apps. This is a limitation in the .Net framework set by Microsoft and is explained in detail in this article. This prevents using TCP Socket over localhost.

That also means that the current client-server design of the EyeTribe Dev Kit is not permitted in Win8 and Windows Store Apps. You will be able to find a workaround if running over network.

Before releasing commercial applications, please make sure you read the license agreement in the dev kit.
