Ants Performance Profiler 7 & Windows Phone

[Willem.van.Rumpt]

Hi,

Last year, the roadmap indicated that the profiler that the v7 release (then slated for Q4 2011) would allow profiling WP7 applications.

Is this still planned for the upcoming release?

Kind Regards,
Willem van Rumpt

Hi, Willem.

We were keen to address Windows Phone 7, but unfortunately, that intention slipped out onto the public roadmap before we had actually verified it would be possible. As it turns out, the profiling APIs we use are not available for the Phone 7 emulator, so it would have meant writing a whole new profiler from scratch (with no help from Microsoft!).

We’re very sorry to have got your hopes up, but Phone 7 support is not something we are currently intending to release. We will certainly let you know if that changes.

Hi Laura,

I was already more than half anticipating that.
Not really good news, but I understand the problem, so thanks
for the heads up

Cheers,

Willem van Rumpt
