Repro steps:
1. Start Visual Studio 2013 Preview, create C++ Windows Store App - Blank App.
2. Insert the following code at the top of App::OnLaunched():
AlarmAccessStatus status = AlarmApplicationManager::GetAccessStatus();
status;
3. Build the app (I used Debug/Win32), set breakpoint on the first line above.
4. Launch the app and step over AlarmApplicationManager::GetAccessStatus().
5. EXPECTED: one of AlarmAccessStatus enumeration values returned. ACTUAL: exception with HRESULT = HRESULT_FROM_WIN32(ERROR_FILE_NOT_FOUND).
6. Similarly, AlarmApplicationManager::RequestAccessAsync() fails immediately with HRESULT_FROM_WIN32(ERROR_NOT_FOUND) without creating async task.
Is there a workaround?
Thanks!
