Windows Phone Store certification

larhil · April 17, 2015, 12:35pm

A Windows Phone 8.1 app developed with paradox fails to pass the Windows App Certification Kit. The “Supported API test” fails.

This API is not supported for this application type - Api=LoadPackagedLibrary. Module=kernel32.dll. File=SharpDX.dll.

This API is not supported for this application type - Api=System.Security.Permissions.SecurityPermissionAttribute. Module=MSCORLIB, PUBLICKEYTOKEN=B77A5C561934E089. File=BulletSharp.dll.

It the AppStore configuration, which is a release build. What to do to meet the Windows Store requirements to certify a paradox app?

The Windows App Certification Kit gives this advise.

Impact if not fixed: Using an API that is not part of the Windows SDK for Windows Phone Store apps violates the Windows Phone Store certification requirements.
How to fix: Review the error messages to identify the API that is not part of the Windows SDK for Windows Phone Store app.

This error also occurs when you test the paradox demo projects with the Windows Store Certification Kit.

Thanks for the report. We will have to fix these.

Thanks for taking care of this issue.
Despite of the failure within the Windows App Certification Kit I submitted the app to the Windows Phone Store. It was rejected with the error 2001

This error indicates that there are duplicate files detected in appx manifest. I tried running Resharper to resolve these issues but it still fails.

I assume it’s a good idea to submit one of the Paradox demo projects to the store to see which project properties mess up the certification.

The same problems is there when you check a Paradox Windows Store application with the Windows App Certification Kit.

Thanks for the details. As we hadn’t have a chance to check this recently, we will try to fix this in a next update.

I am also facing same issue. I am using the Visual Studio 2015 Update 2. I have developed the Universal app and try to verify using windows app certificate kit. It thrown an error like

• Impact if not fixed: Using an API that is not part of the Windows SDK for Windows Store apps violates the Windows Store certification requirements.

• How to fix: Review the error messages to identify the API that is not part of the Windows SDK for Windows Store apps. Please note, C++ apps that are built in a debug configuration will fail this test even if it only uses APIs from the Windows SDK for Windows Store apps. See the link below for more information:

So tired with this issue. also tried to replace mscorelib file with diff version but it haven’t worked. Can you please help into this issue??

We don’t have this problem. What version of Xenko are you using?
What is your Windows 10 SDK and Universal Tools installed?
