On Windows Phone, your application may be deactivated while the Photo Chooser application is in the foreground. To ensure that your application receives the result of the PhotoChooserTask, the object must be declared with class scope within the PhoneApplicationPage class and you must call the chooser constructor and assign the Completed event delegate within the page’s constructor. For more information about how to handle the activation and deactivation of your application, see Execution Model for Windows Phone. |
