What is the relationship between windows store aps and Metro apps and WinRT?
I'm trying to follow the tutorial in the book WinRT Revealed top create my first WinRT app. Why does not my newly updated VS 2012 show the option to create a "Windows Metro Style" application? Instead I see Windows Store Front.
You probably want a Windows Runtime Component.
Your book is out of date. It looks like it was written for one of the pre-release versions of Windows 8 and still has old terminology. From its Amazon listing it was published in June 2012, and Windows 8 didn't ship until August.
Are you using the RTM version of Visual Studio?
Also, moving to the tools forum.
You have to be sure you are picking the Windows Store C# class library option, not just the regular c# class library. I don't have the exact names in front of me, but look under the Windows Store heading in new project.
How do I tell if I'm using the RTM version of Visual Studio? Help->About says Version 11.0.603.... Update 2.
OK, I recreated the sub-project and specified Class Library (windows store apps).
None of these look like WindowsMD? Is this book out of date? Do I need a better tutorial?
