Using Application Insights for Windows Phone 8.0 Direct3D C++ Apps

This post provides a workaround to integrate the Application Insights Telemetry SDK with Windows Phone 8.0 Direct3D C++ Apps, which are not natively supported by the NuGet package. It outlines steps for manually downloading the SDK, adding references to the project (including platform-specific handling for ARM and Win32), obtaining an Application Insights component ID, and initializing the SDK within the app's Initialize() method. It also describes how to view basic telemetry data and log custom events (Point Events, Timed Events, Page Views).
