You have to look at the events in your app.cs file, but it also depends on what you want when tha application is Activated, Deactived, Closed and launched.
// Code to execute when the application is launching (eg, from Start)
// This code will not execute when the application is reactivated
private void Application_Launching(object sender, LaunchingEventArgs e)
{
LoadSettings();
}
// Code to execute when the application is activated (brought to foreground)
// This code will not execute when the application is first launched
private void Application_Activated(object sender, ActivatedEventArgs e)
{
if (e.IsApplicationInstancePreserved)
{
//The application was dormant and state was automatically preserved
}
else
{
LoadSettings();
}
}
// Code to execute when the application is deactivated (sent to background)
// This code will not execute when the application is closing
private void Application_Deactivated(object sender, DeactivatedEventArgs e)
{
SaveSettings();
}
// Code to execute when the application is closing (eg, user hit Back)
// This code will not execute when the application is deactivated
private void Application_Closing(object sender, ClosingEventArgs e)
{
SaveSettings();
}
