nfc peerfinder class

Question

Dear all,

I have a doubt on peerfinder class. 

I have deployed my app on two machines having NFC enabled. I am calling  peerfinder.start("my_own_message"); I launched app on one machine and tapped the other machine.

Then windows showed a popup, "you are invited would you like to launch the app?",

After I clicked ok, it is just lanching the similar app on other machine 

but I have not received the message sent above by calling  peerfinder.start("my_own_message");

How to receive the message sent by peer app by calling  peerfinder.start("my_own_message");

Hi Kelvy,

Is your app subscribing to your message?

What is your app trying to do with the message? How are the two apps intended to interact?

Kelvy,

Try having your app subscribe to your message.

Answer 3

The information appears in the start-up parameters on the app launched automatically on the second machine.

You need to handle the application activated event and get the message out of the LaunchActivatedEventArgs. The Proximity sample shows how to check this: http://code.msdn.microsoft.com/windowsapps/Proximity-Sample-88129731
