Hello Every one iam a beginner in Xamarin - Cross platforms
so when i downloaded it and starts to work on it , it has not a UI ToolBox like the Android Studio like a Mobile Device which we Drag and drop the items and start to code thats what i mean
is there some thing like that in Xaml -Xamarin Portable Shared platforms
Or a Plugin in NuGet Display a ToolBox with drag and drop in Portable App [Andrid - Windows phone - IOS ] all togethet
There is no drag and drop in xamarin ,you need to code front end manually.
Xamarin has a xaml preview to show how the UI you coded looks.
Xamarin.Forms does not support drag and drop, use xaml for designing the UI which is very easy to learn and use Xamarin Live Player to see the changes. you can get all the information from the link below:
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/xamarin/xamarin-forms/xaml/
Xamarin now has a toolbox which can be used for frontend development, you can drag and drop your controls and layouts in XAML file now.
You can go to View > Toolbox to navigate to the toolbox. For further information you can follow this link.
My question as the title, I have done that in android using xamarin message center
and I want to know if it is possible for IOS too especially I a beginner IOS developer.
So what I want is to go from xamarin forms page to ios page or the opposite.
You can expose a native iOS or Android page/control to Forms by using a Custom Renderer.
I know there are ways to do it with XCode 5 but is it possible with my infrastructure?
I'm using Visual Studio 2012 and MonoTouch.
In XCode I can go under Debug > "Simulate Background Fetch" or there is also a second way: XCode Menu, "Product" => "Scheme" => "Edit Scheme" enable the option "Background Fetch".
Unfortunately this is currently not possible in Xamarin Studio/Visual Studio.
But we're working on it, and it will be included in a future release.
I noticed the new update of Xamarin Studio 5.0 included Background Fetch support. (http://docs.xamarin.com/releases/studio/xamarin.studio_5.0/xamarin.studio_5.0/)
When debugging using the simulator, go to Run->Simulate IOS Background Fetch
This can now be done in Xamarin Studio only and only using the iOS Simulators. Make sure your iOS project already has the Background Fetch permission selected (in your iOS project properties or manually in your info.plist). Then, in Xamarin Studio, you choose Run -> Run With -> Custom Configuration -> Select Background Fetch -> Run
That will launch your app in the background and will force a background fetch to happen.
Once you do that, you should not have a separate option listed under your configuration dropdown for iOS. There should not be a .iOS and an ProjectName.iOS - Background Fetch option in the dropdown. The nice thing about this is that, after selecting ProjectName.iOS - Background Fetch and running the app, while the app is still running, you can go to Run -> Simulate iOS Background Fetch to run the fetch multiple times. This option is always greyed out for me if I run my app using the Custom Configuration window though.
I am new to Xamarin. I have few confusion here.
Question:
How does Xamarin get the Native Look and Feel of the UI Components?.
Does Xamarin Provide their own Widgets [ like button, Layouts, ..].
Here is my understanding Correct me if I am wrong?.
1) Develop the UI [ button, layout...] by native SDK. For example iOS use Xcode. for Android ?.
2) Consider the button, when the button is pressed, the the code which is going to get executed
is common across the platform.
3) So, Since UI are directly from their respective SDK, we get the Native Look and Feel.
Kindly correct me where I misunderstood?.
I think you are way off.
Xamarin provides C# and the .Net (Mono) runtime on iOS and Android. At the same time they expose the native APIs on each platform to C#. So they built a way for C# to call into Objective-C and Java (and vice versa).
This means you develop native UIs on each platform, and can share backend business logic between platforms. A Xamarin app can share somewhere between 50-75% of its code across platforms. There is no general sharing of the UI across platforms, since this would abstract away the native APIs.
To break it down:
Android
Use Xamarin Studio or Visual Studio to develop your C# backend code
Use Xamarin's Android designer to layout native Android XML layouts
iOS
Use Xamarin Studio or Visual Studio* to develop your C# backend code
Use XCode on a Mac to layout storyboard or XIB files for native iOS UI layout
Both options you can create your UI from code as well, but the native APIs will be different on each platform.
*A mac is needed to compile for iOS
I an working on one application in j2me which I want to run it as background, such that no user can know that their mobile phone is having that application which is executing in background.
How to do this? I am using j2me and Netbeans as my IDE.
