Is there a possibility to programmatically launch an external PixelSense application in Surface Mode, out of my own PixelSense application?
You'd have to verify this for the Surface Shell on Pixelsense, but on the Surface v1 you could do that as long as the application you wanted to launch was registered by the shell.
If the application you want to launch is your own you could also put it in a usercontrol and compile it into a dll so it can be loaded within the calling application.

Can we upload and add our applications to already existing sample Images available on AWS Appstream2.0?
It gives the option of creating a new Image through Image Builder and then gives the steps ahead. But is it not possible that we upload our application to Images available by AWS?
You can deploy your application on the app stream using an interactive method or by uploading the application on s3.
The wizard that you use depends on your browser and application installer.
The 10 step process to deploy custom application on the App stream is detailed here.
i want to know if it is possible for google chrome extension to check if there is already a native app installed on the client machine or not
So we established that you control both the extension and the native app.
Note that the extension cannot access the filesystem to check for existence of files; presumably, you also want to detect the presence of the app even if it's not running, and ideally be able to launch it if it isn't.
The best way to check that the app is installed is to provide a Native Messaging host in the app. The installer would then add a registry key to let Chrome know that the native host is present, and you can connect to it.
Now, there are some considerations:
You can't check the presence of the native host without trying to launch it.
The process launched that way lives only as long as its communication port is opened in the extension.
The communication channel between the extension and the app is the STDIO.
It would not be wise to just declare your main Windows Forms app as the native host. You should write a separate utility app that can communicate according to the Native Messaging protocol (even if to just answer "I'm here"). If needed, it can launch the main app and/or communicate with it as needed using other channels. You could also just launch the main app from your native host and then communicate with it using WebSockets.
I have accidentally killed one of my WP projects in VS2013. I receovered the source code from the backup, but now, if I try to recompile it and deploy to my device for further debugging, all my app data in the app IsolatedStodage area will be wiped (see this post).
The problem is that I have gathered some important data in my app, and need to save them for later use with newer versions of my app. Is there a way to access the file system on a WP device unlocked for development and save the corresponding IsolatedStorage files for the app? I know that it's possible for the WP8/8.1 emulator (we can mount the .vhd files), but what about a WP device? And if it it's possible, what files/folders do we need to save?
Try IsoStoreSpy.
It allows you to browse the IsolatedStorage of application on both emulator and device. You need to copy all the files from IsolatedStorage and upload them to device after updating the application.
I have a set of CUDA apps that both write to the console via cout. I have a host machine with VS and NSight plug-in and a target machine with NSight service. However, when I execute the console app, it actually runs on the target machine (literally pops up a console).
So here's the question: how can I get the console to show up on the host and only the GPU stuff to execute on the target? Is this even possible?
Thanks!
The short answer is that it is currently not possible. The application on the target is executed by the Nsight Monitor process but Nsight Monitor currently does not forward the output back to host.
Currently your only option is to take care of it your self by capturing the output of your application on the target and somehow display it on the host.
If this feature is important to you i suggest you file a feature request via your Nvidia developer account.
The CUDA application completely runs on the target machine, so the console or UI for the application will be seen on the target machine only. You can set breakpoints in the GPU code in the VS side (your host machine), and it should break there.
If you feel the application quits too quickly and is not launching the kernels as expected (and you are not hitting the breakpoints), it may be that you have not deployed all the required DLLs on the target machine (e.g. CUDART).
I'm developing kind of standalone kiosk and having trouble as in title.
Explanation:
Application is launched in Google Chrome with "--app=file://..." option
Application should play video files from local filesystem after user
interaction and after playback is finished app will send log-message
to web server.
Problem:
When using with "-use-network=false" i can use local files and cannot
send messages.
When using with "-use-network=true" i can send messages but cannot
red local files.
When using with debugger and Safari on Mac locally - no problems.
Is there any way to get around this?
Software used: Debian, latest Google Chrome with latest pepper Flash.
As written in Adobe docs:
The local-trusted sandbox—Local SWF files that are registered as
trusted (by users or by installer programs) are placed in the
local-trusted sandbox. System administrators and users also have the
ability to reassign (move) a local SWF file to or from the
local-trusted sandbox based on security considerations (see
Administrator controls and User controls). SWF files that are assigned
to the local-trusted sandbox can interact with any other SWF files and
can load data from anywhere (remote or local).
Besides that, I doubt there is an easy way to do both networking and access local files since this is how Flash security sandboxes work. Or you could write an AIR app (2.6 is last supported version on Linux) or wrap your swf in a native app that would act as a layer between .swf and network/filesystem interfaces.
