I am writting Windows 7 apps using System.Device.Location, which depends on Windows Sensor and Location Platform. I download the Consumer preview, but I cannot find it.
Thank you.
According to the documentation, it’s in the .NET Framework 4.5:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.device.location(v=vs.110).aspx
However, it doesn’t appear that Windows 8 Metro apps have this namespace:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/apps/br230232(v=vs.110).aspx
However again, it looks like some of the classes in the
System.Device.Locationnamespace have migrated toWindows.Devices.Geolocationnamespace, which is in Metro:http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/apps/br229921.aspx
What it doesn’t tell you is if they are equivalent. You may not be able to just change namespaces, so some code fixing may be required. On the surface they look like they are tackling the same problem.
