Sharing Service on Raspberry Pi using Windows 10 IoT Core

Open jahanzeb07 opened this issue 8 years ago • 5 comments

Hi, is it possible to deploy sharing server on Windows 10 IoT core? I tried to compile the HoloToolKit package and deployed in Raspberry Pi (running Windows 10 IoT core) but it only deployed SessionManagerUniversal.UI project. How to deploy SharingServer as well?

Hello, is there any chance to build Sharing Service in HoloToolKit as Universal Windows application?

I'm not sure, but I think the Service is only written for desktop windows. It registers itself with the OS as a service, which I think is not possible in UWP due to security and power concerns. I have not looked deeply into this, so I might be wrong.

EDIT: Maybe it would be possible with .NET Core, if Windows 10 IoT supports the right libraries.

On IoT you can add a backgroundtask which is very much like an NT Service. I have this for one of my projects. https://developer.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/iot/docs/backgroundapplications Pretty sure this could be leveraged to run the sharing server part.
