MSApp.execUnsafeLocalFunction and Store Certification

Question

Hi,

Does using MSApp.execUnsafeLocalFunction automatically makes an application rejected by the windows store?

What about WinJS.Utilities.setInnerHTMLUnsafe and similar?

Thanks a lot,

Answer 1

Using these APIs does not affect certification. Their purpose is to make you aware that you're doing *potentially* unsafe things, so you can think it through. Using them is necessary in a number of scenarios, like using some third party JS libraries.

Answer 2

No. Those API are allowed, but should be used carefully on trusted data.
