How to Integrate Windows Phone 7 SDK with your Apps?

Create a Komli Mobile Account

Create an Windows Phone 7 Ad Client by going to "Sites & Apps"->"Create Site/App" and follow the steps given below.

Download Komli Mobile Windows Phone 7 SDK pack from http://www.komlimobile.com/publishers/ZestADZ_WP7_SDK_v1.0.rar and unzip all folders.

Open it with Visual Studio 10 and add the following references by right clicking the "Solution Explorer". Then navigate to "Add Reference".
In the pop-up window, select the following reference and add it. Repeat the same flow to add all the references.

References:
    a. System.Xml
    b. System.Xml.Uniq

Add the following Name spaces copy from code:
    a. Using System.Xml.Linq; // Used for XML handling process.

Copy the downloaded C# code to your MainPage.xaml.cs file, and then copy the downloaded xaml code to your MainPage.xaml code where you need to show the ad. eg: top, bottom.

Assign the following variables in MainPage class.
    -  public partial class MainPage : PhoneApplicationPage

Assign the keyword string as per your requirement. Based on your keyword the ads will show.
    -  const String mt_zest = "Base";

Set the time interval to display the next ad or ad-to-ad interval as per your requirement.
    -  const int gettime_zest = 12; // Assigning values should be in seconds eg:1 second

Copy the corresponding Client ID from your Komli Mobile account and assign it in variable as shown below
    -  const String cid_zest = "xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx";

Copy and paste the following line without editing:
    -  int loopcount = 0;
    -  String lastimage = "";

To initiate the ad pulling process while starting the application, we need to add the following line in mainpage method i.e in ( MainPage() )

try
	{
		if ( Int32.Parse(gettime_zest.ToString()) == 0)
			{
				Debug.WriteLine( "Please enter a valid time, it should not be 0" );
			}
		else
			{
				// Create the Thread for continuous and independent operation.
				Thread t = new Thread(Getadsfromzest);
				// Start the thread.
				t.Start();
			}
		}
catch
	{
		Debug.WriteLine("Error in MainPage method");
	}

To continue the flow, copy & paste the following method into your class:

a. Getadsfromzest - This method is used, to send request to Komli Mobile server.
	Note: Assign these variable after Getadsfromzest method for further process
	Assign the variable for animation.
		private int _zIndex = 10; //set the position.
		private int time; //set the animation time interval.
b. zestadzads_DownloadStringCompleted -
	Get the response from Komli Mobile server.
	Store the xml data to a list using xml linq paraser.
	Get the stored data from list.
	Add animation to ads(i.e image).
	Send it to view part i.e. to xaml.
c. AddImage - This method is to add images to image grid, with or without animation.
d. image_Loaded - This method is used to create flip animation when image is loaded.
e. gopage - This method is used to show the selected image link's page / landing page in browser. You need to create browser element in Xaml/front_end. i.e (<phone:WebBrowser Name="webBrowser1" .....) in name of webBrowser1.
