Question

I have a windows phone application (silverlight) which fails certification. I do not know how to pass this certification, as I am not able to reproduce the problem as described in the failure report.
I am displaying a MessageBox to the user, and the report states that the application does not resume if it is suspended keeping the MessageBox undismissed. But this doesnt happen when I am testing the app in the device, or the emulator.
What could be the problem, and do I need to modify the application in anyway??

Answer 1

The problem must be that the application does not resume after being ‘tombstoned’ not just the normal deactivation.
Go to the project options in Visual Studio and in the Debug section check the ‘Tombstone upon deactivation while debugging’. Now start debugging on a device or, emulator, you should be able to see the problem regarding resume now.
