Universal Apps Live Tiles

Question

I have reached the stage in my universal windows app where I would like to create a live tile.

The articles I have read suggest that you should create a BackgroundTask in a separate assembly to keep the footprint small, so I have created a new portable class library for this purpose.

There are a number of templates available for your live tile, some are not supported on windows phone and some are not supported on windows store apps.

The problem I have is, if I want to create different live tiles for windows phone and windows store platforms, I cannot tell which platform it is running on because the portable class library I have created don't have anyway of identifying this.

Is there a better way of doing this?

经过深思熟虑后，我决定最好的答案是创建两个版本的BackgroundTask，一个用于Windows Phone，一个用于Windows Store，然后在运行主应用程序时注册正确的版本。
