Simple code for calling from Windows Phone 7 using C# code

Hello friends,

Today I will explain how to make call using your C# code in Windows Phone.

It is very easy code you just need to write few lines and you are good to go. I will explain the concept of chooser and launchers later on please don’t worry about that right now.

So we start with a new project in which we add reference of Microsoft.Phone.Tasks.

On the screen we have added few names & there phone numbers textboxes.

We have added a call button for each name. Please see the below snap for design. Now in button click event you need to do following

  PhoneCallTask callTask = new PhoneCallTask();

callTask.DisplayName = this.txtName1.Text;

callTask.PhoneNumber = this.txtPhone1.Text;

callTask.Show();

Now when you click the call button you will find now you will get following screen which is a confirmation screen. In confirmation screen you will find the Display Name “Rajat Jaiswal” and phone number is there.

Now you can press call button and you will find you are calling Rajat Jaiswal at given number .

Enjoy calling
