I have successfully installed and built my example project - I chose the C++ blank project.
Without adding any line of code, I build the project and ran it. It builds successfully when when it comes to runtime, all I get is an empty screen followed by a crash.
Here is where the debugger ends :
void ::BlankExample::App::InitializeComponent()
{
#if defined _DEBUG && !defined DISABLE_XAML_GENERATED_BREAK_ON_UNHANDLED_EXCEPTION
UnhandledException += ref new Windows::UI::Xaml::UnhandledExceptionEventHandler(
[](::Platform::Object^ sender, ::Windows::UI::Xaml::UnhandledExceptionEventArgs^ e)
{
(void)sender; // Unused parameter
if (IsDebuggerPresent())
{
::Platform::String^ errorMessage = e->Message;
__debugbreak();
}
});
#endif
}
and here is what I get onscreen :
Well, I can't post any image. Anyway, my screen is a nice white crossed box in a full grey background.
