Imagine a background task being registered to get triggered at a calender event (event from the build-in calender) from a Windows Phone 8.1 app. What are the possibilities for doing so?
As far as I prototyped it it is not possible to subscribe for the notifications. The only possibility I see is to copy all calender events at background task registration and let them sit in some owned cloud service that pushes raw notifications (raw notifications are very important) to my background task from WNS which requires internet connection which again is impractical. Moreover the service is required to be placed in lock screen. There are so many problems with synchronizing the calendar events if you think about it too.
The solution I would like to implement however should not require internet connection. How can I simplify it?
