GameSession^ session = XLiveGameManager::CreateSession(APISecretKey);Windows::Globalization::ApplicationLanguages::PrimaryLanguageOverride = "en-US";OpenXLivePages::XLiveUIManager::Background = "ms-appx:///Assets/Background.jpg";OpenXLivePages::XLiveUIManager::Initialize(this, session);	auto op = session->OpenAsync();op->Completed = ref new AsyncOperationCompletedHandler<AsyncProcessResult^>([=](IAsyncOperation<AsyncProcessResult^>^ operation, AsyncStatus status){		    if(operation->ErrorCode.Value == 0)    {        if(operation->GetResults()->ReturnValue)        {            // Create game session succeeded        }        else        {            // Create game session failed        }    }});

GameSession^ session = XLiveGameManager::CreateSession(APISecretKey);  Windows::Globalization::ApplicationLanguages::PrimaryLanguageOverride = "en-US";  OpenXLivePages::XLiveUIManager::Background = "ms-appx:///Assets/Background.jpg";  OpenXLivePages::XLiveUIManager::Initialize(this, session);      auto op = session->OpenAsync();  op->Completed = ref new AsyncOperationCompletedHandler<AsyncProcessResult^>([=](IAsyncOperation<AsyncProcessResult^>^ operation, AsyncStatus status) {             if(operation->ErrorCode.Value == 0)     {         if(operation->GetResults()->ReturnValue)         {             // Create game session succeeded         }         else         {             // Create game session failed         }     } });
