The Windows Phone Developer Tools January 2011 Update includes:
- Windows Phone Emulator Update – Exposes copy/paste functionality in
the Windows Phone 7 emulator. For more information, see How to: Test Copy and Paste
in Windows Phone Emulator. End users can use the copy and paste
functionality only after receiving the corresponding update to the Windows Phone
7 operating system.
- Windows Phone Developer Resources Update – Fixes a text selection bug
in pivot and panorama controls. In applications that have pivot or panorama
controls that contain text boxes, users can unintentionally change panes when
trying to copy text. To prevent this problem, open your application, recompile
it, and then resubmit it to the Windows Phone Marketplace.
- Windows Phone Capability Detection Tool – Detects the phone
capabilities used by your application. When you submit your application to
Windows Phone Marketplace , Microsoft performs a code analysis to detect
the phone capabilities required by your application and then replaces the list
of capabilities in the application manifest with the result of this detection
process. This tool performs the same detection process and allows you to test
your application using the same list of phone capabilities generated during the
certification process. For more information, see How to: Use the Capability
Detection Tool.- Windows Phone Connect Tool – Allows you to connect your phone to a PC
when Zune® software is not running and debug applications that use media APIs.
For more information, see How to: Use the Connect
