I'm working on a WP7.5 app where I use a background agent to update tiles in the background (when the app is not running).
In the OnInvoke method of the agent, is there a way to know if the main app is currently running ?
I'd like to detect that in order to NOT updating the tiles if the app is running because I already udpate them when the app exits.
Thank you.
Your only choice is to write use isolated storage to communicate, since it's shared by both agent and application.
Have the main application create a blank file on startup, and delete it when it closes. Your agent can then determine if the application is running by checking the existance of that file.
