Introduction

Today, in this article let's learn another new concept related to Window Phone 7, whereby communicating with WCF Service to perform some operation.

Question: What is Alarm?

In simple terms "It provides basic notification to the user by requested sound or message".

Let's get this started off now!!!

Step 1: The complete code of IService1.cs looks like this:

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Runtime.Serialization;
using System.ServiceModel;
using System.ServiceModel.Web;
using System.Text;
namespace WCF_Alarm
{
// NOTE: You can use the "Rename" command on the "Refactor" menu to change the interface
name "IService1" in both code and config file together.
[ServiceContract]
public interface IService1
{
[OperationContract]
DateTime setDate(DateTime a);
}
}

Step 2: The complete code of Service1.svc.cs looks like this:

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Runtime.Serialization;
using System.ServiceModel;
using System.ServiceModel.Web;
using System.Text;
namespace WCF_Alarm
{
// NOTE: You can use the "Rename" command on the "Refactor" menu to change the class name
"Service1" in code, svc and config file together.
public class Service1 : IService1
{

public DateTime setDate(DateTime a)
{
return a;
}
}
}

Step 3: The complete code of Web.Config looks like this:

<?xml version="1.0"?> <configuration>
<system.web>

<compilation debug="true" targetFramework="4.0" />
</system.web>
<system.serviceModel>
    <behaviors>
      <serviceBehaviors>
        <behavior>
          
          <serviceMetadata httpGetEnabled="true"/>
          
          <serviceDebug includeExceptionDetailInFaults="false"/>
        </behavior>
      </serviceBehaviors>
    </behaviors>
    <serviceHostingEnvironment multipleSiteBindingsEnabled="true" />
</system.serviceModel>
<system.webServer>
    <modules runAllManagedModulesForAllRequests="true"/>
</system.webServer>
</configuration>

Step 4: The complete code of MainPage.xaml looks like this:

<phone:PhoneApplicationPage
  x:Class="Alarm_Application.MainPage"
  xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
  xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
  xmlns:phone="clr-namespace:Microsoft.Phone.Controls;assembly=Microsoft.Phone"
  xmlns:shell="clr-namespace:Microsoft.Phone.Shell;assembly=Microsoft.Phone"
  xmlns:d="http://schemas.microsoft.com/expression/blend/2008"
  xmlns:mc="http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/markup-compatibility/2006"
  mc:Ignorable="d" d:DesignWidth="480" d:DesignHeight="768"
  FontFamily="{StaticResource PhoneFontFamilyNormal}"
  FontSize="{StaticResource PhoneFontSizeNormal}"
  Foreground="{StaticResource PhoneForegroundBrush}"
  SupportedOrientations="Portrait" Orientation="Portrait"
  shell:SystemTray.IsVisible="True" xmlns:toolkit="clr-namespace:Microsoft.Phone.Controls;
assembly=Microsoft.Phone.Controls.Toolkit">

   
   <Grid x:Name="LayoutRoot" Background="Transparent">

        <Grid.RowDefinitions>
  <RowDefinition Height="Auto"/>
   <RowDefinition Height="*"/>
   </Grid.RowDefinitions>

<Grid x:Name="ContentPanel" Grid.Row="1" Margin="12,0,12,0">
  <Button Content="Set
Alarm" FontFamily="Verdana" FontSize="22" Height="71"HorizontalAlignment="Left" Margin="132,215,0,0" Name="button1" VerticalAlignment="Top"Width="205" Click="button1_Click" />
  <toolkit:TimePicker HorizontalAlignment="Left" Margin="286,137,0,0"Name="timePicker1" VerticalAlignment="Top" />
  <TextBlock Height="30" HorizontalAlignment="Left" Margin="12,160,0,0"Name="textBlock1" Text="Please Set Alarm Time:
" FontFamily="Verdana" FontSize="22"VerticalAlignment="Top" />
  </Grid>
  </Grid>
  
  <!--<phone:PhoneApplicationPage.ApplicationBar>

<shell:ApplicationBar IsVisible="True" IsMenuEnabled="True">
<shell:ApplicationBarIconButton IconUri="/Images/appbar_button1.png" Text="Button 1"/>
<shell:ApplicationBarIconButton IconUri="/Images/appbar_button2.png" Text="Button 2"/>
<shell:ApplicationBar.MenuItems>
<shell:ApplicationBarMenuItem Text="MenuItem 1"/>
<shell:ApplicationBarMenuItem Text="MenuItem 2"/>
</shell:ApplicationBar.MenuItems>
</shell:ApplicationBar>
</phone:PhoneApplicationPage.ApplicationBar>-->
</phone:PhoneApplicationPage>

Step 5: The complete code of MainPage.xaml.cs looks like this:

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Net;
using System.Windows;
using System.Windows.Controls;
using System.Windows.Documents;
using System.Windows.Input;
using System.Windows.Media;
using System.Windows.Media.Animation;
using System.Windows.Shapes;
using Microsoft.Phone.Controls;
using Microsoft.Phone.Scheduler;
using Alarm_Application.ServiceReference1;

namespace Alarm_Application
{
   public partial class MainPage : PhoneApplicationPage
{
  // Constructor
  public MainPage()
{
InitializeComponent();
}

  static void time_Call(object sender, setDateCompletedEventArgs e)
{
  Alarm obj_Alarm = new Alarm("Hii");
obj_Alarm.Content = "Hello, Good Morning!!!!";
obj_Alarm.BeginTime = e.Result;
obj_Alarm.ExpirationTime = DateTime.Now.AddMinutes(30);
obj_Alarm.Sound = new Uri("/k.mp3", UriKind.Relative);
obj_Alarm.RecurrenceType = RecurrenceInterval.Daily;
  ScheduledActionService.Add(obj_Alarm);
}
  private void button1_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
{
Service1Client obj_Client = new Service1Client();
obj_Client.setDateCompleted += new EventHandler<setDateCompletedEventArgs>(time_Call);
obj_Client.setDateAsync(Convert.ToDateTime(timePicker1.Value));
}
}
}
